Forget Bike to Work Day! For whatever reason, today is National Pizza Party Day. Blame the sinister pro-pizza lobby, or something.

In any case, a pizza party is one of those things all kids look forward too, along with Halloween, sleeping over at the house of the friend with the cool toys, and the last day of school. And we think it’s high time that more pizza parties were had.

Overheard of the Week

In the garden behind the Smithsonian Castle:

A school group of maybe 7 year-olds is walking through.

Boy 1: “You could buy 200,000 pizzas with $1,000!”
Boy 2: “That would be cool.”
Boy 1: “Yeah.”

After the jump, being nice to mom, lots more kids, and a contest! With no real prize!
