Aug. 22 is National Punctuation Day

I learned of this special day late on Aug. 22, but I think that one could celebrate punctuation all year, and within a few days of the official observation is acceptable.

Visit the Web site for National Punctuation Day, a campaign to kick off the school year with a special emphasis on the importance of proper punctuation. We judge so much by a misplaced comma or apostrophe, and we take action, perhaps avoiding a business that doesn't know its it's.

So, without question mark your calendar, dash off a quick note and enter a period of rejoicing.

I can't wait for No More Comic Sans Day. Think that is on anyone's calendar besides mine?

I recently heard that the new Iraqi constitution will be written in comic sans. How's that grab you? It will, however, be punctuated perfectly--just in time for National Punctuation Day!
