I'm off but I get holiday pay.  Not to be confused with vacation pay.  My wife's Canadian and when she wants to talk about my "holiday" dates, I get confused, and the conversation turns into a kind of "Who's On First?"

Me: "Which one, you mean today?" 
Her: "No, I mean the one you're taking in July." 
Me: "Well, that's today, July 4th is a holiday."
Her: "It starts today?!! I thought you said it was the last two weeks in July?!!"
Me:  "No, my vacation starts the last two weeks in July.  Today is just a holiday".
Her: "I'm not asking about today!"
Me:  "Then what are you asking about?"
Her:  "Your holiday!!"
Me:  "That's today."
Her: "Never mind, would you pour me some coffee please?"

Happy 4th to all!  It might be a US holiday, but all nations have an investment in it.  An investment of people.

Happy 4th everyone. I celebrated Canada Day from the US so I had to come home to celebrate Independance Day from Canada.

Yes, they are. Another of my favorite topics. https://goo.gl/photos/LLdQ3sEXc1xycptW7

They are neon gas based, just like the 426A tube inside some older phones.
