All In Favor – Sign the Petition
I found a note in my email this morning from a friend who is a rabid sports fan. For year "Bill" (not his real name) has lamented on how the day after the Super Bowl should be a national holiday.

The White House Easter Egg Roll is a tradition that goes back to 1878. In the beginning, the event was mostly just the roll itself, with children pushing painted eggs through the White House Lawn with a long-handled spoon.
But these days, it is much more than that. Now it’s a 11 hour event that about 35,000 kids and their parents attend.
Daryl Hannah, who has acted in such films as ‘Splash,’ ‘Wall Street’ and the ‘Kill Bill’ series, was arrested on Tuesday for refusing to abandon a sit-in in front of the White House. Hannah was among more than 100 people detained by US Park Police while protesting the Keystone pipeline project.
“We stand here today to just say no to slavery, to just say no to tar, sands, oil, and no to the Keystone pipeline,” Hannah said.
