Do businesses close today were you live? Just curious. I know around here as recent as the 90s the one day a year most places were closed was Easter, now it seems very few close. Was just wondering if its the same where you live. Makes me think of Canada in the 70s. Almost nothing was open on Sundays. I mean it was hard to even find a restaurant open.https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089396#msg-1089396Mon, 05 Oct 2026 20:15:16 -0400 Phorum 5.2.18 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089542#msg-1089542 Well, at least for the most part..https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089542#msg-1089542

"Likely because its always on Sunday and the Federal government is already closed that day. In some locations the Friday before Easter (Good Friday) is a Holiday, (but not on the Federal level) ...if the Federal Government officially recognized Easter and not other Religious Holidays it could violate the Seperation of Church and State clause of the US Constitution. Christmas can easily be recognized because many mainstream religious holidays fall around the same time."]]> waterfield Bucky's PubMon, 01 Apr 2024 01:44:48 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089446#msg-1089446 Does what you did yesterday have anything to do with Stevie Nicks..https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089446#msg-1089446 sstrams Bucky's PubSun, 31 Mar 2024 22:27:56 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089433#msg-1089433 Holidays/ Theaters and my freakish memory.....https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089433#msg-1089433 Ramgator Bucky's PubSun, 31 Mar 2024 15:58:15 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089428#msg-1089428 was shocked today............https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089428#msg-1089428 21Dog Bucky's PubSun, 31 Mar 2024 15:46:45 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089421#msg-1089421 What I don't get..https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089421#msg-1089421 sstrams Bucky's PubSun, 31 Mar 2024 14:28:16 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089416#msg-1089416 Re: Do businesses close today were you live?https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089416#msg-1089416Walmart being open is probably a lifesaver for a lot of folks because they DO have groceries, if you need them.]]> MamaRAMa Bucky's PubSun, 31 Mar 2024 13:51:51 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089415#msg-1089415 Re: I don't know..... but it's always seemed odd to me...https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1089396,1089415#msg-1089415

That people leave their homes on big holidays. To leave home on a big holiday - like Christmas, Easter... that's not even a thought for my family. BUT...

I understand why many do. So I guess businesses get customers... won't be any of my family however. - JamesJM

Something I was unaware of until about 20 years ago.
