    thanks, CMP, we knew we’d wind up forgetting something … forgot to mention ‘no mail’ too … will make a note for next federal holiday :)

    How ’bout “Presidents’ Day”. Might be correct (I’m no expert) and at the least it should confuse even more people about this misused/abused area of punctuation.

    Duh! I’ve gott learn to read more carefully. I see you say “Presidents’ Day” doesn’t cut it. I thought you wrote “President’s Day”.

Sorry, comment time is over.
