"Today is a holiday," Jon told the students. "One in America, and a different one in Britain. I thought today we should go over modern holidays, so those of you not from here can understand what they are."
He passed out pages to everyone showing US holidays. "Today is Memorial Day, a day for remembering military members fallen in the line of duty. A good number of holidays are either religious or military. Today, however, we'll be looking at some other holidays." He passed out another list. "These are varying degrees of celebrated, but they're worth knowing, particularly if you're spending time online. We've just passed Towel Day, a celebration of a particular series of books and radio plays that claim a towel is the most massively useful thing a person can carry. So today we're going to have towels," he passed out those as well, "and discuss their potential uses and usefulness. And if you have any questions about the other holidays on the list, we can cover those as well."
