Our competitors over at the Murdoch empire have been trying to recover from some sort of scandal about ahcking into the cell phones of royals, celebrities and ordinary citizens . Heads have been rolling, and Parliamentary committees are getting in line to play a wack-a-Ruppert now that it turns out the emperor has lost his body armour.
At Reuters, some columnist then made his own mistake, reporting that Murdoch's company had gotten about a $4 Billion tax refund from the US government last year, when, in fact, it had paid about that much in taxes on its profits from the delusional ramblings of it's "fair and balanced" cast of crazies.
The columnist was on NPR yesterday groveling in apology.
But here at UCTMW World Enterprises, we've made out own mistakes.
Yesterday was "World Nude Day", but it was not reported on these pages in a timely fashion.
This is something that our WC would normally be tuned in on, and make sure it was timely reported here. But he seems to be MIA out west, possibly doing some investigative reporting on the lives of Arnold Schwartzeneger's former mistresses now that Maria has dumped him. We look forward to that report... maybe in the next decade.
Fortunately, our southern Correspondent was able to take some time off from renovating our Appalachian Branch Office yesterday evening to catch our mistake and prepare the following belated entry to commemorate the day:
Thursday, July 14th was National Nude Day! No Kidding!
I just can't believe UCTMW missed this!!!

Maybe we could celebrate a day or two late. Would that be okay?
I took the time to research this, and Friday the 15th is Tapioca Pudding Day and Saturday the 16th is Cow Appreciation Day. I would be willing to sacrifice the usual festivities for either or both of those holidays for a chance to make up for missing National Nude Day!
I suppose I should be honest and confess that I never eat tapioca pudding. I don't feel the need to buy food with lumps when I seem to have a knack for unintentionally making foods like mashed potatoes or gravies with lots of lumps. And then there was that bad flu season when, along with the rest of his dinner, our son offered up some projectile tapioca vomiting that arched from his high chair and completely missed the table to stick to the opposite wall. That may have been a bit TMI. Sorry about that.
As far as Cow Appreciation goes, I grew up in an area that raises cattle. They are beautiful. They are soft. They are at their best when grilled and served with a bit of Worcestershire sauce.
So, what do you think? I know it may be too late for Friday, but what about Saturday and Sunday? Sunday the 17th must be all about the UCTMW celebration of Molly's birthday as well as your anniversary because nothing else is listed on the official holiday calendar.

Just imagine how much more fun it would be to enjoy your special time together if you were both nude all day long? Send the surly teens off to their friend's homes, strip down, put on some music and celebrate good times!

Is this a good idea, or what? We can't just let National Nude Day just slip away without participating, can we?
