September 24 is the Day of Unplanned Madness. We all live by some rules and often restrain ourselves. If you want to do something spontaneous or do something incredible (within the law, of course), now is the time. And when a policeman stops you, tell him what holiday it is. Just kidding.
September 24 is also National Punctuation Day. The holiday was invented by American Jeff Rubin. It is worth remembering how and where to put commas, why exclamation marks are not always appropriate and when a dash is much better than a colon. In short, good punctuation is always nice. But we have the right to make mistakes: after all, we are people!
