G.K. Chesterton's Birthday

Today, I was apprised by a friend that May 29th is G.K. Chesterton's birthday. Following the example of some guy named Tim from the League of Bearded Catholics, I would like to propose my own list of things you might do on this day:

(1) Forget that it is Chesterton's birthday.

(2) Lie in bed tomorrow morning, drawing on the ceiling with a long, coloured pencil.

(3) Challenge a freethinker to a dual.

(4) Take a long walk in the woods, get lost, then write an essay about it. (And have it published.)

(5) Take everything out of your pockets, then write an essay about the contents. (And have it published.)

(6) Outline your understanding of the development of Western culture, or, if this seems too daunting, finish (in your own words) a shorter piece that begins: "In my forthcoming work in four volumes on the neglect of cheese in English literature ...".

(7) Walk about your downtown in a black cape and black hat, wearing a pince-nez and carryng a walking-stick (preferably a sword-stick), all the while reciting a nursery rhyme or fable from your childhood until a policeman comes up and tells you that you are jaywalking.

(8) Find a short-ish Catholic priest, and ask him to solve a mystery.

(9) Forecast accurately the development and devolution of Western culture during the next 100 years.

(10) Read something by Chesterton. This would be at once the most unique and counter-cultural thing you could do on this auspicious day.
