Do you have access to a dog and a goat? Is animal sacrifice allowed in your jurisdiction? And do your womenfolk not mind being whipped with the hides of said anaimals? If you can answer yes to all three, then I say go for it!

Thank you, and the same to you, testcase! Following hard on the heels of Festivus, Lupercalia is just the ticket!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupercalia
"The historian Justin mentions an image of 'the Lycaean god, whom the Greeks call Pan and the Romans Lupercus,' nude save for the girdle of goatskin, which stood in the Lupercal, the cave where Romulus and Remus were suckled by a she-wolf. There, on the Ides of February (in February the ides is the 13th), a goat and a dog were sacrificed, and salt mealcakes prepared by the Vestal Virgins were burnt."

Now where did I leave my Vestal Virgins…

Likely. Hmmmm, probably not but there's a farm nearby with plenty of space, no one will notice. I know some pretty open ladies. So, maybe.

Smart lady. I got suckered into cleaning off three cars and shoveling four and a half spots. Plus our walkway. It was nice enough outside, even with stupid shoveling.

Yesterday on the other hand was positively frigid. I met friends in downtown D.C. Great time despite the cold. Today, even with the snow, was a piece of cake. Then again, I didn't have to drive or walk anywhere. Just shoveling and back in again.
