Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

The only holidays worth observing, imo, are: Christmas, New Year, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving.


And Patriots Day..9-11-01..'Never forget'

In MY day, we did not have Presidents' Day.

We had Lincoln's Birthday, February 12, and Washington's Birthday, February 22.

I always grouped those holidays in the silly bullshit holiday list along with Arbor Day.


How exactly do you observe President’s Day anyway?
When I was in school, "Presidents' Day" hadn't been invented yet--we got both Lincoln's Birthday (12th) and Washington's Birthday (22nd) off. Even so, up north (Detroit) we still were in school more days each year than most of the South did.

The only real significance of Presidents Day is you don't get mail.

The only time I ever got President's Day off was when I was working on a contract at Intel. Had to take it unpaid.
