                    Going to see a civil war re-enactment this weekend, 150th anniversary of bull run

                    It's going to be sweltering though....

                      I could think of many thousands of things that would be more fun than that.

                            I suppose you've never celebrated your birthday on the weekend when it actually took place during the work week.

                                So you'll stand around in the sweltering heat while men in costumes pretend to shoot each other? Really?
