Nearly every day is a holy day...

Depends upon how much veracity you give to the pseudo-Catholic incidents around the world. I mean, do we really need a holy day for every mysterious appearance of the Blessed Virgin on everything from toast to bird splat? At what point does the fiasco cease to be veneration of Mary and become some kind of blasphemy (if it wasn't outright idolatry, already), and who's the fool in THAT picture?

"Today, I came out to my field and was astonished to see that my ox had sh@t a perfect statue of the Blessed Mother. So, I captured fuzzy images on a cheap digital camera and uploaded them to the internet. Today must be a holy day. We are already building a shrine and the people of the villiage are bringing gifts. I feel so very honored that this would happen to me; that my ox would be chosen for such a great sign as this."

Call it "life imitating South Park".

Hey immigration apologists, explain this from the Greeley Tribune:

The crowd has begun to die down since the morning. The scene has been sometimes tense, but police have had some success in calming them down.
Andres Guerrero, who teaches Spanish at Aims Community College, joined the protesters. He said, “In ten years we’re going to take over the southland, trust me. “This is our land and always will be our land.”
