View Full Version : Happy Leon Day
>>>Leon Day takes place on June 25, marking exactly six months until Christmas Day. The name is “Noel” spelled backwards, a quiet nod to the holiday that sits on the opposite side of the calendar. The day has become a quirky favorite among Christmas enthusiasts, who use it as an excuse to plan ahead, listen to carols in summer, or simply count down to December.<<<

Leon from The Andy Griffith Show. I think he was played by Clint Howard. Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks. I never watched Andy Griffith but I do have an awareness of who Clint Howard is. He obviously got the part via nepotism.

Oddly enough my great uncle's name was Leon Russell.

Bonniegirl 06-25-2026, 11:47 PM Besides Leon Day, it is Michael Lembeck's birthday. :)
Also the ideal day Andrew Woodhouse ( Rosemary's baby ) was expected to be born on. Satan's Son/ opposite of Jesus's birthday. But due to Rosemary's monthly cycle the closest they could come to June 25 was June 28! :eek:

I shall follow your advice and skip the color seasons. I shall also follow my own advice and skip the black and white seasons too.

Really? I doubt it would have lasted too long. IMO Leon wasn't funny enough or interesting enough to pull a whole show . He would have to have some really good co stars for it to work. Of course this is just my opinion. ;)
A state in Mexico. I just learnt about it during the World Cup game in Monterrey. (I suck at geography)

biffbronson 06-30-2026, 06:58 AM My geography is terrible. Had very little in school, "social studies" instead. When we did once get a geography lesson, it was about "what is an archipelago, what is an isthmus..." instead of learning about countries, seas, etc.
My closest friend is named Leon, short for Leonidas.
