  1. Other Holiday Changes include FrankJ Day, the day it’s legal to punch hippies.

    However, in honor of FrankJ’s libertarian philosophy, it has no fixed day. Anyone can celebrate it any time, as many times as they like. Just be sure to yell “HAPPY FRANKJ DAY, FILTHY HIPPIE!” before punching, and it’s perfectly legal.

  2. Other notable acknowledgments to Mother Cabrini include the Cabrini-Green Homes in Chicago, Over the years, crime, gang violence and neglect created deplorable living conditions for the residents, and “Cabrini–Green” became a metonym for the problems associated with public housing in the United States. It is expected that the Cabrini name will continue this notable legacy for the state of Colorado.
