Today's observations are about bringing action figures in to work, dentists, frozen foods, Oreo cookies, white chocolate cheesecake, and the Alamo: Alamo Day Dentist's Day National Frozen Food Day National Oreo Day National White Chocolate Cheesecake Day Take Your Action Figure To Work Day On this date in 1836 the Mexican army overran the Texas fort called the Alamo, killing virtually everyone there. Though it was a decisive victory, the rallying cry "Remember the Alamo" helped inspire the Texians who ultimately gained their independence from Mexico. I have to admit that I didn't celebrate Take Your Action Figure to Work Day before retiring; it seemed to be a little wasteful to buy an action figure just for one day of the year.
