Happy President's Day!

But wait. What is that? Is it Washington's birthday? Is it Lincoln's birthday? Is it both of those? Is it "All President's Birthday"? What is this we're celebrating, anyway? Does anyone know? When we were kids, I think we knew. It was originally Washington's birthday. Now? Who knows? It's a day off for the financial community and government offices, right? That's all we know. That and it's a day for retail sales, like all the rest of these things. Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington's_Birthday
