Holiday!

I have always thought that my birthday should be an international holiday. Schools, banks and federal buildings should close. There should be fireworks in the heavens, parades in the streets, dancing in the parlors and necking in the backyards. Everyone should throw discretion to the winds and eat themselves into a stupor and maybe get silly drunk. 

Guess what - my birthday falls on MardiGras this year. Let the good times roll!
