There are numerous holidays in the United States throughout the year, some of them being recognized by the Federal Government by giving days off of work. Among these are New Year's Day, Martin Luther King's Birthday (actually the third Monday in January, which may or may not coincide with the actual birthday), Memorial Day, the 4th of July, Labor Day, Columbus Day (for now at least), Thanksgivings Day (again for now, at least), and Christmas Day. What holiday is the original poster referring too, as there are other holidays beyond these, such as Valentine's Day, Pulaski Day (in Illinois), St. Patrick's Day, President's Day, Bastille Day (in France), Boxing Day (in the United Kingdom), as so on?
