We need a new name for the big day

As you know, Feb. 5, 2008, Â looms as the most momentous date in the history of presidential primaries, with balloting scheduled in 22 states, including some big ones (California, New York, Illinois).
The occasion is made all the more important by the fact that the nominations in both parties will still be up for grabs when that day dawns. (Who knows? Maybe Rudy Giuliani will still be in the race. Not that it will matter, of course.)
What should we call such a portentous day?
 ”Super Tuesday” doesn’t suffice. That’s so 1990s.
“Super Duper Tuesday”? Not much better.
“Tsunami Tuesday”?  Too insensitive. Tsunamis are deadly disasters.
I ran across this one today: “Super Duper Mega Awesome Orgasmic Tuesday.” I like it, but it’s too long. Doesn’t fit nicely into headlines.
Help me here, people.
Whoever sends me the best idea will win two tickets to Ron Paul’s Inaugural Ball next January (if he’s elected president). Good luck.
