Good Friday

It  is really strange being in a country where Good Friday is treated as just another day! Here I am in Denver, Colorado where people on the radio keep referring to "The Easter Holidays," but no where was closed, not even the schools. So who had the holidays I kept asking?

Then I heard on the news that Wall Street was closed. Strange, I thought since it is more or less accepted that Wall Street is controlled by Jews!

And when you consider that Good Friday is a holiday in other countries that have very little Christian  traditions....example  Sri Lanka,  it gets even weirder.

I guess it is going to take me many moons to understand what is broadly referred to as American Culture!
