7 January 15

A great tie without an occasion . . . There is no "National Fox Day." The National Fox Welfare Society, in the United Kingdom, has never declared a special holiday, and while Rollins College (in Florida) celebrates Fox Day sometime every spring, the actual date for the class holiday is unknown until the college president announces the surprise. So I'll wear my Nature Conservancy tie featuring foxes today -- when there's nothing else on my celebration calendars.
