Calendar Malfunction in Governor's Office

Governor Kasich's Proclamation

According to the above Proclamation signed by John Kasich, Ohio is going to celebrate Martin Luther King Day on March 17th this year. Yes you are correct, March 17 is St. Patrick's Day. But don't be too hard on our governor for not paying attention. Since he has no African-Americans in his cabinet of 22 (the 1st time in Ohio since 1962), he honestly does know the date of  MLK's birthday. Or maybe Ohio under Kasich is going to have a new calendar. Perhaps we could celebrate July 4th on Thanksgiving day. Fireworks and turkeys! Maybe New Year's Day could be celebrated on Memorial Day. Champagne, noise makers, and wreaths! Imagine the possibilities. And where is it written that Ohio has to celebrate July 4th on the 4th day of July. We can assert our "States'Rights."
