ENOUGH WITH THE SERIOUS REFLECTION: Mr. Cosmopolitan was just observing to me that MLK Day never feels like a real holiday, because it's the only national holiday that wasn't a holiday during his youth. Which is a fair point -- when most of us were kids, we had that long uninterrupted stretch between New Year's Day and Presidents' Weekend with nary a day off from school.

What would you propose as the next national holiday to be officially decreed by the Day-Off-From-Work powers that be? And what do you think is the most likely one to be so recognized? Personally, I think August is long overdue for a national holiday -- Elvis Day, anyone? August is a great time for PB&Banana sandwiches.
