You may have thought March 17, 2008 was St. Patrick's Day. Wrong. It's Jaime Blanton Day, at least officially, according to Louisville Metro Government. I received a proclaimation and a key to the city from Mayor Jerry Abramson at his monthly Mayors Community Conversation event at Butler High School.
John, Jenna, Jackson and my mother-in-law Kaye were on hand to help me celebrate the honor.
For those of you who are wondering neither the day nor the key (actually designed as a lapel pin) carry any specific priveleges, but the bragging rights are great.
Mayor Abramson joked that if I buy a calendar for 2009 and my day is not on it, I should take it back.
