I think the date was April 17, 2011.  I'm not sure of the phrasing, but I think it was "What will happen on..."

 

If that is the case, that is a Sunday - Palm Sunday to be exact, but I don't think that would be the answer, it's a little too easy to find.

 

It's also the 50th anniversary of the Bay of Pigs Invasion, although I think that isn't as hard to find as they are making the answer out to be.

 

As an obscure option, it is the last date of support for the Cisco series 1500 flashdisks...

 

I'm betting that it is somebody's birthday or something like that.  Anybody know birthdays of the show cast, marriage dates, etc.?

 

When are they going on vacation again so we can get a hint?

i just found this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_2011_Census

 

"The Canada 2011 Census will be a detailed enumeration of the Canadian population on May 17, 2011. Planning is already underway. In deciding questions for the 2011 Census, Statistics Canada will consult and collect comments from government, organizations, and individuals across Canada. This is expected to be major consultative process, involving questions on family, ethnicity, education, and labour.[1] The census questions will then be sent to Cabinet for approval and published in the Canada Gazette sometime in 2010."

"April 17 is new filing deadline. No joke!

And the IRS is just as surprised as the rest of us, although probably not as happy about the change as we taxpayers are.

This filing season, a perfect calendar storm has produced the convergence of the already-delayed filing deadline, an official District of Columbia holiday and an obscure federal law. The result: More tax time.

 Most of us were looking at Monday, April 16, as the due date for our 1040s, since the 15th this year fell on a Sunday. But 4/16 is the Emancipation Day holiday in Washington, D.C. And under a federal statute enacted decades ago, holidays observed in the District of Columbia have an impact nationwide.

As for Emancipation Day and possible future federal tax-filing deadlines? We won't see the two coincide again until tax season 2011."

The answer is going to be "Palm Beach will celebrate its centennial."

Hello to everyone I talked to on PalTalk! I think Ben is right. My guess was that it had something to do with "The Gator" or West Palm Beach.

Hey Brian. I used to go on paltalk. I never paid for it though because, like David, I was too cheap. Lucky for me though cause when Craig got canned, so did the P&YR paltalk room. Sucks to be all those people that spent $60 and only got to use it for a month. If Clear Channel or Paul and Ron were to create a subscription cam service like some other talk shows then I would pay, but not for a third party software service. But its great chatting here on Soren's site. You should join us.
