Of course, there were many ways to celebrate the day away. You could overthrow your government/despot leader – shout out goes to Egypt, Bahrain, and who knows maybe Libya and Yemen soon or you could propose to your girlfriend of one year in front of a Shopping Mall full of people in what must be the most disastrous Proposal since Charles said to Diane, “Please be my bethrothed and make me the happiest man in the world by marrying me Camill…I mean Diane!”
