Answer 1

In the meantime, here's a sample that you can use:

-- TO SELECT DATES IN A GIVEN RANGE
-- THAT DO NOT FALL ON A TUESDAY AND THURSDAY
SELECT dateColumn 
FROM yourTable 
WHERE DAYOFWEEK(dateColumn) NOT IN (3,5) 
    AND dateColumn BETWEEN '2011-01-01' and '2011-12-31';

Answer 2

If you want the dates enumerated (not from your database) then see this link:

You should be able to adjust the solution to filter for the desired day name using MySQL DayName function.
