As most people probably aren’t aware, tomorrow (April 3rd) is Cheese
\nWeasel Day! \u00a0 Happy Cheese Weasel Day to you!<\/p>\n
In honor of this momentous holiday, here is the Cheese Weasel FAQ:<\/p>\n
Q: What the heck is Cheese Weasel Day?<\/p>\n
Every year, on April 3rd, the Cheese Weasel travels the world,
\nspreading good cheer and leaving a bit of cheese under the keyboards
\nof all good little boys and girls in the high tech industry.<\/p>\n
Q: What kind of cheese does the Cheese Weasel leave?<\/p>\n
Kraft Singles were once the cheese of choice, although as time went by,
\nthe type of cheese became less important than the spreading of
\ndairy goodness and the types and shapes of cheese given by the Cheese Weasel
\nbecame varied. This was considered to be a Good Thing, especially considering
\nhow often most people look under their keyboards.<\/p>\n
Q: You made this up didn’t you?<\/p>\n
Nope, I didn’t make this up.<\/p>\n
C.W. Day is a holiday that evolved on the Internet, probably sometime
\nin the last eight to ten years. The first I heard of it was in 1992,
\nand it’s being celebrated quietly by dozens, dare I say hundreds of
\nsoftware and technical folks around the country as you read this.<\/p>\n
Hallmark doesn’t make a card, and the American Dairy Association is
\nas yet unaware of it, so it’s probably the least commercial holiday
\ngoing. Hey, we wanted to add some culture to our lives, right? What
\ncould be more cultured than cheese? There’s even a Cheese Weasel Song!<\/p>\n
The Cheese Weasel Day Song
\n(Sung to the tune of…..hm well there isn’t one that I know of.
\nC.W. Day predates MP3)<\/p>\n
Who Brings the Cheese on April 3rd?
\nIt’s the Cheese Weasel!
\nHe’s not a silly bunny or a reindeer or a bird
\nHe’s the Cheese Weasel!
\nHe’s got a funny little tail and funny buck teeth
\nand he doesn’t bring fish and he doesn’t bring beef
\nso you’d better be good if you want to get some cheese
\nfrom the Cheese Weasel!!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
