Holiday Time coming up!

It seems that the media and the marketing machines of new York are working overtime to get us from 1 holiday to another. There was a time when holidays were special and few. Now we seem to go from 1 holiday to the next if only as a cheap marketing ploy.

When I was growing up, Saint Patricks Day [March17th] wasn't a month long advertising blitz that it is now. Heck, Halloween is 4-6 weeks of a season! It never ends as we dutifully run from one holiday to the next
