6/02 and 6/03 have passed... 6/15 is soon, and 6/16 and 6/17 are just around the corner!...

This was WAY too subtle for me. For a moment, I thought we were all going to need to chip in and buy John a calendar.

Having my birthday today, as well as having a 300D turbo, is just way too

If you click on the bit next to "New Posts" on the banner above you get a calendar...

...not that it is much use. I think we should start using it and put in sarcastic estimated dates when certain forum member's projects will get finished.
