Thank you for answering.
Hey, I understand the horserace holiday concept, truly. I live in Wyoming, and when I was a kid we had a day where all public schools were out on holiday ... the first day of hunting season. Really.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
