MLKJR
Shame on Google for not decorating their banner to celebrate MLK jr. Day, when they do a little something for just about every other damned holiday out there.
There is a good write up from the LA times by Earl Ofari Hutchinson about the lack of support this holiday receives from most anyone outside the black community.
Give your workers a day off this Monday; watch a parade, or better yet, join one; listen once again to "I have a dream." And make no mistake: Honoring Martin Luther King Jr. is honoring the best that America ever was.Posted by will at January 17, 2005 11:06 AM | TrackBack

It appears they did two years ago: http://www.google.com/intl/en/holidaylogos03.html
Wonder why they haven't since.

thanks for the reference...
seems like, from that page, that they used to change their banner quite a bit more...
Michelangelo's Birthday? 50th Anniversary of understanding DNA?
What happened to this stuff -- you'd think that the bigger they got, the more they would do this stuff...
