if anyone has membership to the Chicago style manual, we can settle this once and for all.

If you are wondering what the Chicago style manual is, it is a ridiculous compendium of proper grammar and writing structure.

Maybe it's a regional thing here...

There are two ways of looking at this.
1. Do it the right way which yes, as everyone has said is: Saturday, December 20th
2. Do it differently for effect. So just write anything you want: Saturday the 20th of December? Sure, why not. Saturday the 20th day of December?
Whatever man. If it's for a poster, have some fun with it. If it's for your CV, do it properly.

I don't get it. It's what you'd say. Well, it's what I'd say anyway :S
I know grammar doesn't always match up with what you /say/ but I can't imagine ever seeing this anywhere and finding myself thinking "Wow. They are pretty dumb."
