This template automatically selects a featured article based on the current day. It goes in chronological order from 2006, week 1 (January 1) to 2012, week 52 (December 31). It does not include featured articles prior to 2006, as that would increase the number to over 365 and complicate the template. If a day does not have an article assigned to it (for example, day 366 of a leap year), it defaults to the January 1 featured article. This template can be used with the "day" parameter, for example {{dailyarticle|day=365}}, to see the article for any given day.


"I'm gonna go build a deck... with galvanized nails!"

In the Short No Hands On Deck!, released Monday, August 14, 2006, Homestar decides to build a deck while talking to Cardboard Marzipan (who is really voiced by himself). In preparation, he decides to tell nearly everyone about the deck that he's building and even boasts to Bubs that he'll be using galvanized nails. Later on, we see Homestar once again talking to Cardboard Marzipan about why galvanized nails are better despite Wikipedia's recommendation of using vulcanized nails. Cardboard Marzipan then asks if he's using galvanized nails to hide the fact that he doesn't know how to build a deck. In response, Homestar evades the question, runs away and begins building his deck. At the end, a surprised Homestar and Bubs share cans of Melonade while gazing at The Field which is now completely covered in wood. watch (more...)
