Earlier this month, I listed quite a few humorous national month holidays that correspond with the month of May. Well today, I couldn't resist and wish everyone a happy Nylon Stockings Day. Yes, today, May 15, is Nylon Stockings Day. The origin of the "holiday" dates back to 1940, when Du Pont first introduced nylon stockings. They were so successful, that Du Pont decided to offer them all across America on May 15, 1940. On that day alone, Du Pont sold 5 million pair of nylon stockings. So those of you that wear stockings, put on your Nylons today and celebrate!
