Happy Lumberjack Day!

An old sketch, but still a goodie, I think :) Page 51 of LUMBERJACKS: A FIELD GUIDE: Lumberjacks of the Future.




To quote (more or less) the founders: "What the heck is Lumberjack Day?? Lumberjack Day is a wonderfully ridiculous holiday that Marianne Ways and Colleen AF Venable [former lumberjack] invented seven years ago in reaction to Talk Like a Pirate Day. Lumberjack Day is an excuse to get together with friends, throw on your best flannel, grow a beard, eat pancakes and mozzarella sticks (official food of LJ Day), and of course TALK VERY LOUDLY."

Colleen and Marianne, along with a lot of other lumberjack friends, created a handy website with lumber-crafts, recipes, horrible jokes, and bad party ideas: lumberjackday.net OR lumberjackdaydotcomwastaken.com

I like it. Any excuse to eat pancakes and talk loud.

Cool! And since it doesn't seem to have as much popularity as TLAPD yet, I posted to FB...

Lumberjack Day!!!! How is it that I have been missing it for the past seven years? The Lumberjack is the official mascot of SFA!!!! Even our Harry Potter club is The Order of the Lumberjack.

I'll have to find a way to publicize this on campus next year!
