So, I guess a local school district cancelled Veteran’s day as a vacation day for the schools. I got an ear full yesterday about how they didn’t cancel Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

I pointed out that while I thought it was a bad idea, Veterans also had Memorial Day. So, technically, the kids had two days off in honor of Veterans.

The counter was that there was a whole month of Black History. The idea that the kids didn’t get the whole month off didn’t register.

nice huh?
