Title: It's a Long Weekend
Post by: JimH on May 25, 2012, 04:41:38 pm

If you live in the U.S., it's no surprise that Monday is Memorial Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_day).  We'll be closed and things will probably be a little slow on Interact.

If you live in another country, thanks for keeping the world running while we take the day off.

Whichever it is, I wish you a pleasant weekend.

Same here, although we call the holiday differently. An translation appears to be Pentecost or Whitsun, at least used in the UK.
