Hmmm,
We could celebrate with a presentation on LISP. I would be

"In October 1958, John McCarthy published one in a series of
reports about his then ongoing effort for designing a new
programming language that would be especially suited for
achieving artificial intelligence. That report was the first one to
use the name LISP for this new programming language.
50 years later, Lisp is still in use. This year we are celebrating
Lisp's 50th birthday."

The influence that Lisp and it's offspring have had and
continue to have on the development of programming
languages is remarkable.
