- Last week Carolyn was teaching her kindergarten students about Martin Luther King, Jr. When she explained that Monday was a holiday to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. King, one little boy asked: “Does that mean that all the black children don’t have to come to school that day?”
- Carolyn and I were talking earlier about how we went to a store last year that was having their big “White Sale”… on the Dr. King holiday. We figured it had to be a strange coincidence. We went to the same store yesterday and–sure enough–they were once again having their White Sale. Surely that’s not a sick joke? But it would be an awfully strange coincidence. Think I’ll ask their manager.

Man, you KNOW I’m really interested in hearing what that manager says!! 😉
We went back there a couple days ago and the sale was still going on. So at least it’s not just on that one day, though it’s still pretty weird timing.
