Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Labour Day, these holidays could not have been legislated in today’s world. Labor!

Soldiers, workers, presidents, all for holidays. Still people, mind you. Still people…National Wal-Mart Day eventually? Can’t count it out! Apple Month one of these days? David Foster Wallace thought so in Infinite Jest, right?!
