Get Ready for 12 April!

Ready to party like the Jet Set Chick and Tsar Charming?

Well, there's something Russian we're going to celebrate, and it ain't Stolichnaya. (Ok, it might be included. But it's not the reason.)

It's a worldwide remembrance of "Smiling Yuri" Gagarin's flight on that day in 1961 aboard the Vostok 1, when he became the first human in space. He died about seven years after that flight while piloting a MiG, so since he can't be here to get down, let's knock one back in his honor on the 12th!

(BTW, if you want to celebrate something American, on that date in 1981, the first space shuttle was launched....)
