Your Favorite Holiday
Just curious. After casting your vote tell us why you chose what you did.
I chose Independence Day because it's the summertime, the weather is great, and for the fireworks, BBQs, and the overall feeling of patriotism that is shared throughout the country.It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

Other, being my BIRTHDAY!!! I believe that my birthday should be a holiday!!! Other than the fact that it is MY birthday, I happen to share it with two other people... Rockgremlin and his wife! So, I believe that is my favorite holiday and I am stickin' to it!
btw... side note here, a Birthday emoticon would be helpful to get my point across but, I will make due with the "bandit" one. He looks Cinco De Mayo like aka celebration time!

I voted Easter. It means Spring, Jeep Safari, and high hopes of a great summer ahead.
I love spring. I get depressed in the Fall, 'cause I always feel like I didn't accomplish everything I could in the Summer.

Probably the reason I like halloween so much is becuase we usually go to the uintas every year during UEA weekend, I know its not exactly halloween, but it is october, and october means great hunting and fishing.
I went down to the sporting goods store and got a new rod and reel for my wife.....pretty good trade, don't ya think?

I love halloween. That time of year seems to have a type of electricity in it for some reason to me.

I really don't like holidays. Yeah call me the grinch or scrooge if you must. They are all an excuse for vendors to make money. It seems like every other week they roll out the next holidays stuff at the grocery store. Then you are on the ____ list if you don't get something for your significant other. Bla Bla Bla.....
I prefer thanksgiving for all the food and football. Christmas sucks because everyone gets a chubby over being the first one to buy a $20 dollar DVD player that will break next week. People get all worked up over a parking spot. I just toy with people and get them going around the stores. Then just say yeah merry Christmas to you. But I usually avoid the shopping all together. Just do all your shopping online..........

Pie and Beer day.
Not because of the pioneer celebrations, because if you go out of state everyone is at work on that weekday and you're not!
Otherwise I don't really celebrate holidays, they are more like "time to go on a a trip." Though I avoid Memorial Day and Labor Day (too many other people out).

Halloween, I just love the time of year. Thankgiving is just a step behind Oct 31, any holiday where I can eat anything I want all day long is on my favorite list. And my birthday sucks, I get sick every year.

Given a choice I'd pick Halloween. It's in the fall, a great time of year. There are no crowds other than for one evening. It doesn't cost any more than a few bags of candy. I love the coolness in the air w/o it being cold, great time to be on the Desert and the Swell.

I despise holidays. For the last 12 years of my life I've worked most holidays, I despise commercilization of holidays (Especially religious holidays....and I'm an Athiest!), and I get tired of all the "Oh, have a Merry Christmas...." and even worse "Happy Holidays", since "christmas" is religious and therefore offensive
The only good thing to come from Holidays is the extra pay I get.

Well if they are getting out and exercising on them, whats the gripe?
I bought by first road bike in '93. I got out of it about '96 and got really fat between '97 and '00. I bought another road bike and dropped 40lbs. I'm on my second road bike, and have a cyclocross and mountain bike. I'm not into fads. It beats the shit out of running or sitting in a gym.

Anymore I prefer to work on the Holidays. Hell, on Christmas and Turkey day we have less traffic, despite the higher passenger counts.
