Today Is..LEON Day

Today is exactly 182 days since Christmas Day in 2022 and tomorrow it will be exactly 182 until Christmas Day 2023 which i think deserves some sort of celebration and as i found out last year there is, and it's called LEON Day which is very cleverly, NOEL backwards.
I found out about it accidentally a few years ago and ever since we have kept a Christmas Film on the TIVO Box to watch on June 25th and i have done my best to spread the word hoping that it will catch the imagination and grow into a thing, not the full blown second Christmas, but a more simpler, cut back affair.
As we all know, the Christmas Story is actually just a cheap rip off of Saturnalia with Jesus copied and pasted in to replace the Roman's Gods and i assume if it does grow into something, then the Churchy types will be busy finding someone to fill his boots in June and they already have a Saint who's feast day is today, William of Montevergine.
Looking at his Wikipedia page, his story includes a donkey and Kings and he also performed miracles, ordering the wolf that killed his donkey which did all the towing and other tasks and demanding the Wolf to literally do the donkey's work instead.  
He also turned down a prostitute who wanted to test his faith which may not be quite so easy to spin into a jaunty LEON's Day Carol that the kid's can sing but we can let future generations worry about that as well as what bird will replace the Robin on LEON Day Cards and who will be the Santa replacement because we can't expect him to do the rounds twice in one year and the kids have to have someone to write to.
Ugly T-Shirts to replace Ugly jumpers, Strawberry Milkshake instead of Eggnog, pot plant palm tree instead of Poinsettias, the possibilities are endless so June 25th needs to be observed as it marks the point when this year’s Christmas starts coming closer than last year’s Christmas and that has to be worth celebrating.
