National Flashlight Day

[Flying Turtle]

Get prepared, folks. According to a web site (holidayinsights.com) my son found, December 21 is National Flashlight Day. Do you suppose we should strap on all our lights and march about our neighborhoods? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hahaha.gif

Better get out my Positron Laser (5W cyan LS mod that was made for me about a year ago) and hit the bricks!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

But shouldn't it be called "National Flashlight Night" instead?

No, "International Flashlight Night would be better :D

Not too early.
If you have not bumped the thread I probably would have missed it.
-22°C wind chill. Winter storm warning. Good day to check on my flashlights.

YAYYY..... National Flashlight Day!! I've been waiting for months...lol. I've watched that video many times since I first saw it last year. I even have my wife signing it (not that she wants to, it just gets stuck in her head... then she complains that it's my fault for playing the video). Oh well! :D

I will be doing the same!

I will be honoring National Flashlight day tonight by using my Rally Advanced 3-in-1 Ultra Beam rechargeable 3 million candlepower spotlight, my Husky 2D 4 watt CREE, and my AmondoTech Titanium Mega Illuminator.:)

Would national flashlight day fall on June 21st in the southern hemisphere?

In preperation for my favorite holiday on Tuesday evening I ZTS tested loads of primary cells, charged up every one of my Li-ions, lubed some threads, checked O-rings, and played LEGO.

Everyone should kill a couple of primaries outside tonight in honor of the day! Even if it is going to be 12 degrees.

Okay . . . you guys are going to LOVE this.

My kids like to tease me from time to time, about . . . you know :crackup:

But I find THIS when I get home just now . . . it's a result of sending that "holiday insights" link to my wise ***, teenage daughter.

I'm thinking of making it my avatar.

 

[tygger]

That is the best cake I've ever seen in my entire life. :twothumbs

 

[Jarl]

epic cake :D

Definitely avatar it!

Bit gutted I missed this holiday... must pay more attention! Love the website though:

Did You Know? The flashlight was invented in 1898 by Joshua Lionel Cowen. However, this wasn't his greatest invention. He also invented the Lionel train.

I beg to differ ;)
