Holiday: A day off with no work or school

ROUTE 1 readers, dismayed by the lack of sanctioned time off between Labor Day and Thanksgiving, chime in with answers to this week's FRIDAY QUESTION:
"What holiday would you like to see added to the calendar?"
Mike D. -- Earth Day should be a national holiday, where everyone has the day off work to spend time outdoors, enjoying nature and eating granola bars.
Kerstin H. -- The day after ITBS (the Iowa Test of Basic Skills). They can't teach you anything anyway that day.
Rick T. -- National "Take The Day Off" day. It has to fall during the week, or it wouldn't be any fun.
Annika H. -- My birthday. Everybody would have the day off!
Dave B. -- Earth Day. Have a massive clean the Earth day. You get the day off if you spend it making the Earth a better place to live.
Erik H. -- Seeing how Annika's birthday is in early January, and knowing what a post-holiday letdown the month of January has become, I will echo her answer. Let's all have Annika's birthday off!
