<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>how many holidays do you Americans get?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Not enough. We get a day off for Columbus day, Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday (Feb. I think), about a week and a half off for the winter holidays and New Year's, a little less than a week for Thanksgiving (in November), Labor Day (September), and Memorial Day (May). I think that's all we take off for, but we also celebrate Verterans' Day and Presidents' Day without taking school off. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>9-hour Lord of the Rings Movie Marathon.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Actually, when you think about it, it could be a good deal longer than that. If you're watching the Extended Editions of each, you could add another hour or two onto the Marathon. <P>Not that that's a bad thing.
