    God, I wish Boston sat at 33º N latitude. I could totally live there.

    The best day of the year to be in New York City is the day they run the marathon, and it's the same in Boston today. I hope the runners have the wind at their back.

    The day the British left. Also known as St. Patrick's Day. A holiday in Suffolk County, Mass.
     
  6. Evacuation Day is an excuse to give people St. Patrick's Day off.

    Wasn't there supposed to be a nationwide 'Patriot Day' that Bush and Co. were trying to push through? I believe it was supposed to be the same day that Bush made his Mission Accomplished speech.

    I'm very curious why the association didn't do that. Seems like it'd be a mistake on their part, but OTOH at least they don't have the Celtics playing in primetime in competition with the Bruins. Couldn't have played at 3 o'clock, I guess.

    9/11, according to my 2008 church calendar.

    Yeah, they wanted to spend political capital on making 9/11 a holiday.
