I bet some of you are off today.

But did any of you remember to celebrate this past Friday?
Quote:
Lee-Jackson Day is a holiday celebrated in the Commonwealth of Virginia for the birthdays of Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson. Lee-Jackson Day is observed on the Friday before Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and results in the closing of state offices such as the DMV.
Don't forget to celebrate your freedoms people.

BTW, what are you all doing today since you're off? Hey, we used to celebrate a thing called Lee-Jackson-King Day.
