Happy February 14!

Humphrey celebrates February 14 with a "high five" and a little help from Pixlr-O-Matic.
February 14 - so many things to celebrate, Humphrey has not yet decided which one. Of course, as a 30 Rock viewer and a critical feminist, he is inclined to share Liz Lemon's celebration of Anna Howard Shaw Day. Shaw, everyone surely knows, was a famous suffragette and without her, women might not be able to vote!

Then, there's Qwerty day on February 14, to commemorate the birth of Christopher Latham Sholes, inventor of the qwerty keyboard. Without it, would Humphrey even be able to express himself online?

February 14 is also the day that Finnegan the dog went to the great dog park in the sky - much more solemn a holiday, but nonetheless important in Humphrey's life.

What else???

Oh yes! The feast of St. Valentine, but Humphrey figures few people would bother to celebrate such a religious holiday in this day and age. Far too obscure for his readership.

Whatever people and dogs choose to celebrate, Humphrey hopes it's a nice day. And he sends a big holiday greeting out to Marbles and hopes to see that dude really soon. He finds this winter weather to be a drag on his play schedules.
