I remember when Lincolns Birthday and Washington's Birthday were holidays...then in their wisdom..it was made into one..Presidents Day....to allow for MLK Day...it would not be pc if I said he does not deserve it..but it galls me that you should take away one that is already established.Should be like the American Virgin Isles...since they were under 7 flags at one time or another..they have close to 30 holidays..celebrating every countries holidays..of course it was impossible to get anything done so they had to import labor from Tortola and from British VI etc.

Well, now it's known as 'President's Day.' Poor Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Washington both lost their special days. Very generic.

Look on the bright side: this way, ALL the presidents are now generically honored in one shot...including George W. Bush...

...ugh...hey, wait a minute...

I gotcha ... you be around this weekend?? Maybe I'll give you a jingle while I'm in my travels??? Roll Eyes

Dont feel bad - I've been on duty since last week (including the weekend to some extent) and doing it again this weekend through next week ... no holidays here ... but the paycheck will be nice! Wink

(Gotta stay optimistic!! LOL)

Yup, that's the key. I will be in and out this week-end--but I would love to chat. Wink

Reply #95 - Feb 15^th, 2008 at 5:34pm In the early 70's I lived in Landing, up here, and worked in Garfield. The comute on Rt 80 was a nightmare, so I would volenteer to work Lincoln, and Washington's birthdays and take another day off during the week. Why?. No traffic on 80, on the hollidays.

Hi Ellen I noticed in a note to my brother Ed you mentioned you know Dave. I had dinner with Dave and his fiance tonight, it's his birthday, anyway mentiioned you and he said to say hi, and to tell you he is a teacher now and thought you would get a big kick out of that. He teaches in Hernando High School, he teaches a small engine class. Grin

At the risk of sounding foolish, Cheryl ... refresh my memory please? I'm having a caffeine withdrawal moment ... waiting for it to brew ... and it IS early on a Saturday morning ... who is your brother ... and ... who is Dave (last names will certainly help) ... please? (Boy these senior moments certainly suck!) Roll Eyes

...The preferred modes of communication are as follows, in descending order of preference:

1) Text Messaging
2) IM's (Instant Messaging online)
3) Blogging
4) E-Mail
5) [note, we're getting pretty far down the list here] an actual telephone call, but if you must do this it should be from a cell phone so you can multitask and be mobile (and to ensure the aforementioned 24/7 availability, as well as to provide an opportunity to display the coolness of your actual hardware [cell phone] device)

FINALLY, if all else fails and there is no other choice -

6) an actual in-person conversation. But that's really for losers.

Where does typing in a forum rank these days?

Well for Ellen, Dave and I - pretty high-especially in the early mornings Wink

I don't have a microwave,(probably the only one in the whole USA that doesn't), much less #1,#2,& #3 mentioned above, but I do have a manual, as well as an electric typewriter and I use CARBON PAPER all the time. (I realize the subject matter has changed to the wild animals, to which I fed the squirrels here peanuts, outside my door.)

Where does one get carbon paper or typewriter ribbon these days?
