Omitting Lincoln in the southern states is telling and a bit funny at this point. At least to me.

Something appears to be wrong with the map colors... or the map legend. What's the difference between Dark Blue President's Day and Light Blue President's Day?

Standing in the first row watching former President Clinton give a speech 10 feet away from me and getting to shake his hand afterwards.

I'll never forget that day.

My state of residence wasn't even on that map, so you KNOW we didn't get a holiday (I was up by 5:30 to run over to Holland this morning).

It was a planned day off but they are making up for a snow day. Preemptively. We tend to get snow late Feb early March here.
