This is very cool... but the title of the thread is a month off...

So...it's just a coincidence that it just happens to fall upon the same month the first issue of TMNT was out....right?

I thought the exact same thing, actually.

Well, maybe not, as it so happens that the TMNT put ordinary turtles back onto the map.

It seems like there's a day for everything, so this doesn't seem too surprising.

yep it was world turtle day

what did my turtles do? well..the wood turtle siblings slept under the bark.
Liz, the redfoot...snoozed in her corner. And Spot and Cody just kinda...hid in their log hidey.

hmm even though it was before 2000 (when they say turtle day came out) my elementary school had a turtle day which i guess they made up.. the cool part was that every year on that day, they would give you a ninja turtle coloring book to do as "work" it was so sick.. regardless of what grade you were in it was more of a tmnt day and being that i always obssesed over the green dudes i loved it
