Its my favorite holiday.
I love it because I always get the day off, with pay! And I have nothing to do, no decorating, no buying presents, no trick or treating, no fighting traffic downtown to see fireworks, nothing but sitting on my ass with a beer and getting paid to do so.
Thank you, Dr. King, may your memory be honored forever.

Yeah, it started off real great with a false alarm of nuclear war involving North Korea at 8:00 AM this morning. That is the closest the United States has ever come to initiating nuclear war. The panic was kept to a minimum though because not that many Americans still get their morning news through television. www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2018/01/13/hawaiians-get-ballistic-missile-threat-messages/www.newsweek.com/how-did-hawaii-ballistic-missile-attack-alert-happen-78084310 minutes of pure pants shitting terror is not how I like to start off MLK day. Then that was followed up by over an hour of discussion about how Donald Trump was screwing up everything this holiday stands for. I am still stressed out over how close that came to being the start of a full on nuclear war. The incompetence of the Trump administration is getting way too dangerous. And the sesame chicken with egg rolls and fountain soda that I had this evening didn't do much to reduce those stress levels. Needless to say I won't be drinking any beer this weekend because I need to stay sharp and cool headed while waiting for the other shoe to drop. That is to say that such trouble always comes in twos and I have to be ready to deal with it at a moments notice. |

That is to say that such trouble always comes in twos and I have to be ready to deal with it at a moments notice. Am I the only one that pays any attention to you any more? Please explain in a step-wise fashion how a false missile attack alert to civilian cell phones in Hawaii could cause a nuclear war. Wait, I think I have a theory...the commander of the US Pacific Command could get an alert on his Verizon personal phone, shit his pants as you say, and then initiate a nuclear launch locally based on his iPhone 10 and some digital highway signs. No, he probably doesn't have launch authority...but what if he immediately got Trump on the phone and said "We are under ballistic missile attack!!! LAUNCH EVERYTHING, MR. PRESIDENT!!!!!" and then Trump would launch without checking anything...but launch at whom? He'd probably have to ask someone in Omaha whence the attack was coming, so that wouldn't do it. I'm stumped. PS - Why is buffoonery at the Hawaii Dept. of Emergency Management Trump's fault? |

Thank you, Dr. King, may your memory be honored forever. I look forward to Easter every year, too. Easter tells the story of the crucifixion of Jesus. Suffered under Pontius Pilot, was crucified, buried and dead. He descended into hell . And on the third day He rose again. He came out of the tomb, and if He saw his shadow, there would be six more weeks of winer. So the story is told. |

It is a day we set aside each year to honor those with Alzheimer's. we help them remember little things, like some memory of when they were young, the good times we had together with them, and to turn their fork around so they weren't holding it by the tines. A very special time. |

It is special to observe the birthday of our great nation and marvel at the amazing coincidences that make it special. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were both founding fathers, and yet both died on the same day, Independence Day exact 50 years to the day of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Mathematicians have yet to explain that and also explain the added phenomenon: that it falls every year on July 4th. Amazing! |

I guess they had to choose a day out of all of them. Without their labor, where would we all be? |
