friends, romans, countrymen: lend me your ear

For those of you who were confused, a holiday is a day that honors a certain person, place, or thing.  Think MLK Day, Pearl Harbor Day, or Arbor Day.  Honoring dead family members is a holiday.  "Feed me or I'll toilet paper your house" is not a holiday.  This does not include excuses to get drunk.  Anything goes in the quest for alcohol.
