Will put out my flag on Saturday. It won't become another three-day weekend, will it?

Sure, why not. The day is June 19. Hopefully someone will mention it.
Having this become a national holiday though is very political. Would not have happened with previous guy. Like MLK jr day, not everyone will accept it.

Maybe AZ will finally recognize MLK day?
Nah.

That was fast. I just got an email from the director of our lab (a Department of Energy National Laboratory). Tomorrow the lab is closed and we all get the day off.
