Would that cause any conflicts with other popular holidays?  I think it
remains consistent with past years being a Friday too.

how about we have "Bring-your-minifig-to-work-WEEK"?  that way if you
don't work every day, or have a day off, you don't miss out.  Also, if
you can't make up your mind which minifig to take, you could choose your
top 5 and bring a different one each day!

[The above is from 1 year ago.  :-]

Timothy, that sounds great to me!

What does everyone else think?

If you bring your favorite minifig to work this week (Monday the 11th
through Friday the 15th), it would fall in line with BYFMTWD on previous
years.  (IIRC, 1998 was on the 11th and 1997 was on the 10th, or something
like that.)  BYFMTWD goes back to 1996 or 1995 on RTL, maybe even earlier.
How 'bout we say that BYFMTWW is the week in which December 11 falls?

--Todd (will be bringing a Blacktron I pilot with Ninja head, vented flip-up
castle visor, and disruptor pistol)
