Has it really been 3 years? (!!!)
Dane County employees get 11 paid holidays. Although the national average of paid holidays is 7.6, the progressives who run greater Madison WI aren’t satisfied. The county is considering creating the second Monday in October as a paid, work-free “Indigenous Peoples Day.” If it comes to pass, we’re going to call it Indignant Peoples Day, because that is what we are.
County lawmakers are overlooking this long, two-week stretch between New Year’s and Martin Luther King Jr. Day on January 15 with no holidays. None! Who is going to step up and put January 6 on the calendar as a red letter day?

The Hungarian judge holds up the “10” plaque on this one. The Hallmark folks are busy designing cards as we ponder this. Well done, Squire!
Gee Dave, I was choosing all #4s until I got to Liz Cheney!
You can never have too many “shews.” A few more “illuminations” might help, too–starting with Madison progressives and their obsession with DEI in all its toxic manifestations. I’m sure they’d be able to come up with an oppressed minority deserving of celebration for every day of the year.
