Presidents' Day 2014: A Haiku Celebration

"Labor to keep alive in your breast that little spark of celestial fire, called conscience." George Washington

 Presidents Day is Actually In Honor of Our 1st President's Birthday... The poster reminds us.
On Presidents' Day
44 Presidents praised
Ab and George's birthdays

 For Presidents' Day
Some honor George, not the rest.
Why?  A misnomer!


Happy Presidents Day! If you have the day off, lucky you; rest and re-connect with friends and family. If not, don't worry, at least you are keeping this great nation running. We celebrate this day in honor of George Washington's birthday, Lincoln's birthday, and by default, in honor of all the 44 Presidents of the USA. Did you know that there isn't a specific presidents day but that over the years, we chose George's birthday as the day and it has become a federal holiday. Many businesses have turned it into a shopping extravaganza and others as a day of rest. What do you do on this day?  Enjoy and more below!
