He got my wife and kid a day off from work and school... other than that

What burns me is we no longer get president's day off to honor the men that have presided over our nation yet we get a day off to honor MLK who as far as I know didn't even serve on a city council. :x I can think of many truly great men and women, doctors, scientist, military leaders, etc, people who have made a positive impact on the lives of all people regardless of their race, that deserve to be honored way before MLK.
