Keep calm and welcome September.

September is the ninth month of the year, which is why its name is derived from the Latin Septem, meaning seven.

(We have previously addressed this problem last month; see August, the Sixth Month.) On the French Revolutionary calendar, September is known as Vendémiaire (vintage,) and in Dutch, September is “the begining of autumn“, Hertmaand. The Basque refer to it as “ear month,” and the Congolese, “sánza ya libwá” (Ninth month), the Irish called it “the month of plenty“, and the Samoan call it, “September.”

September is:
California Wine Month
National Chicken Month
Cable TV Month
National Home Furnishings Month
National Prime Beef Month
Prostate Cancer Awareness Month.

So remember, your doctor has a finger, you have a rectum – you figure it out.

Since it September 1, if you need to, you’d better hurry to catch the 11 am train,

The Hogwarts Express, that makes a run between London, King’s Cross Station Platform 9¾ and Hogsmeade Station, if you need to get back to school.

Another thing about September, today is the start of the season when oysters are fit to eat (when months names contain an “R“)

Let us give thanks to that first brave person who ate a raw oyster.

One more thing – For those of you reading this in Los Angeles,

Happy Chicken Boy Day!

Demand Euphoria!
