Hmmm. I'd be interested to see what people think. I'd love to have more time off, but I understand that part of the reason America is so economically strong is our hard-working ethic. The rest of the world parties and whines about not having more. We work our butts off and prosper. No mid-afternoon siesta for me. No "holiday" for me. But I'm not complaining, either.

Yes! It's already been declared "Crusader's Day" (by me).

It is to be celebrated by slow roasting pork and drinking beer after a long day of ridding the world of the one truely inferior religeon. Think of them as a several hundred million pinatas sans blindfolds.

Happy Crusader's Day America. Get Some!

I don't think it should be a holiday. I mean, what is it that we do on holidays? People can't wait for holidays to take time off from work, bbq's, plan a long weekend to go on vacation and have fun, etc. On a day like today it should be to remember what happened, go to church or say a prayer, or simply stay quiet and reflect, it's not about having fun.
