I've become that guy.

I saw a movie trailer the other day, and at the end they didn't have a release date. All it said was "President's Day." That's all fine and dandy, but then I sat there and thought to myself, what day is that? And only to realize that due chiefly to the effects of pop culture, I know MLK day's date, but not President's Day. Not that I think that MLK was insignificant, but banks and schools are closed that day; whereas all of our past Commander-in-Chiefs obviously wanted us to buy furniture. In the larger picture, isn't President's Day more significant simply because we are celebrating 44 men who held office versus one man who challenged the status quo?

Six word memoirs

This is an interesting excercise. Try to convey your story in 6 words. It was started by Hemingway and is now more or less popular. http://www.smithmag.net/sixwords/

Thank you Tom Waits for this one, "Gamblers re-evaluate along the dotted line."
