You're absolutely right -- TOTALLY tacky!!

I heard about "Evaluate Your Life Day" on the news this morning, in a brief spot they did. They did NOT mention the website, but when I ran "Evaluate Your Life Day" through Google this morning, for some more info, it referenced that website, so I added it in to the post because I figured they deserved the credit.

But yeah, the whole "for profit" thing has harshed my mellow. Bleh.

i went to the website of the creators and i just thought this was really really tacky:

Please note! All holidays created by Thomas & Ruth Roy, under the name of Wellcat Holidays & Herbs, are, indeed, copyrighted. If you wish to make use of them in any fashion, for profit, we respectfully request that you contact us for appropriate contract arrangements. If, on the other hand, you wish to use them in some non-profit fashion, we still would request you contact us, to ensure permission. Be sure to visit the wonderful pages of our Wellcat Herbs portion of this web site! We offer some truly fine products. Now accepting VISA & MasterCard
Of course in the US everyone has the right to profit from their ideas, but i can't help it and can't explain it- that totally rained on my "Evaluate Your Life Day" parade...
