    Okay, here's the lineup for 2017. I think there are something like 245 holidays or observances. There are some that aren't listed like Sweetest Day, or Create Your Own Holiday holiday (for any day you wish) and I'm sure there are others.
    Holidays and observances in United States in 2017

    Do you celebrate any, most, or all of those holidays, including your birthdays?

    And remember that it takes legislation passed to actually be able to call a day national doughnut day or bosses day or whatever.

    How do you feel about it now?

    Or work the 247 holidays and get double time! More funds to feed the FAD and CAD, plus add a new boat or other new toy!

    More official sounding and looking if it's all capitalized and stuff. I think you're right though, that's what threw 'em off. Dang it.
    National papadave Slippah Day, thank you very much.
