National Cut Your Energy Costs Tops January’s Calendar

7 We begin our new calendar on JANUARY 7 with National Thank God It’s Monday Day. Though we doubt a nationwide observance on this first Monday of the year, we appreciate the sentiment: to start the year with renewed vigor and a burst of energy. Let’s go, sign people!

10 National Cut Your Energy Costs Day is JANUARY 10, providing all of us the opportunity to consider new and better ways to save energy in our businesses and homes, especially as costs increase. The energy you save is everyone’s. The money you save is yours.

17 If JANUARY 17 is your birth anniversary, you share it with infamous Chicago mob boss Al Capone’s Birthday.

“Scarface” (18991947) eluded the long arm of the law from 1925 until 1932, when he was finally pinched for tax evasion, even spending some jail time in Alcatraz.

23 National Pie Day is served up JANUARY 23, celebrating variations of the country’s favorite desserts: fruit pies, berry pies, cream pies and more. No calendar would be complete without a day dedicated to food, so this is the time to bring a few pies to work for everyone to enjoy.
