I said fug it and put Friday/Monday on the board. Time for a sanity break.
We used to get Good Friday off but a buncha woke leftist pussies decided we need MLK day off instead.
Seems like here lately all my days off I take end up leading me into a marathon work session.
I guess I dont mind. I like helping family when they need it.
Would love a 4 day weekend to just take the boat out and say fuch everybody.
As far as the MLK holiday, folks blew that up and the gubbment made it something totally different than it should have been.
That man was just trying to get his people to make better of themselves.
He was going against what the government was doing at the time, and he lost his life over it. Damn shame, as he would have helped us all even out as a people and a nation.
I grew up in a rural area in the deep South.
I'm whiter than rice, due to my Irish roots, but I grew up around other good folks that couldnt be spotted in the dark unless they smiled or openned their eyes really wide. We all had 2 things in common.
1. We were all raised to be respectful of and help others, and
2. We were all the same level of poor.
Everyone helped each other out.
My "other paw paw", Mr John S Pittman said it right.
He declared that Rogers community was integrated a good long time before they made it official. Damn sure miss him.
