"text": "Celebrate the day by giving some recognition to people and places whose names begin with a Z. Do you have a friend whose first or last name starts with a Z? Spend the day with them and let them go first in everything you do. Hold the door for them when going into a building, and let them order their food first if you are at a restaurant. You could also give some recognition to famous people whose first or last names start with a Z. Watch a movie starring Zooey Deschanel or Renée Zellweger. Listen to some Frank Zappa or Warren Zevon. Not only is the day for people, but it is also for places. Visit a city that starts with a Z, or go to a place with a name that starts with a Z, such as a zoo.",
