1. If UN day were in June or July, then I would be advocating we all take the day off. |

We don't really need any more holidays in the Fall and Winter. ;)

2. There doesn't have to be days off for something to be meaningful |

And every holiday doesn't have to create a three day weekend.

7. It just so happens I fish a tournament on Memorial day every year. What a coincidence. |

4. so- which country generally has the biggest parade for it? |

for argument's sake, let's define 'biggest' as the one with the most floats and marching bands.
