Conversation between Dr. Ego Prozac and Jess Ben Rambling...
Doc: Hey Jess, did you know today was National Nothing Day?
Jess: Is it an “official” holiday?
Doc: No, that would require an official act of Congress.
Jess: Well I think Congress has been celebrating Nothing Day for years, but given that its point is to be a non-event, that doesn’t really matter, does it?
Doc: Of course it's not an official holiday. That would totally defy the whole meaning of the day in the first place, but I notice you celebrate doing nothing on a regular basis.
Jess: This is proof positive I know nothing about Nothing, but it seems the beauty of the concept of nothingness is that it’s full of possibility: It isn’t anything, so it can be everything. So, why should we limit the observation of the holiday to one very specific day?
Doc: Happy National Nothing Day Jess.
Jess: Wishing someone a happy National Nothing Day kind of defeats the purpose of it, no?
Doc: Seems to me this is a lot to do about nothing.
