The Happy Lutherans celebrate Monday FEBRUARY 18, 2013 to commemorate the death of Martin Luther

A big Hat Tip goes out to Bill Babylon for calling to our attention that:

Monday, February 18, 2013 is not only a United States national holiday, but also an international holiday…

467 years after Martin Luther’s death a national holiday has been proclaimed to remember the great reformer.

All Federal and State offices are closed, as well as banks and schools (check your newspapers for other closures).

Some appropriate ways to mark the occasion are:

Wear red (chartreuse doesn't count)

Nail something to a door.

Stand somewhere and refuse to budge.

Do something paradoxical.

Translate something into German.

Set your ring tone to "Ein Feste Burg"

All Lutherans may have this day as a personal holiday (check with your employer).

(Note: It also seems to be President's Day. Apparently, the best way to observe that is to buy something- perhaps even a President!)
