Had it before and still have it now. Noticed a little more traffic than usual on Friday evening on the way to bball. Thats a negative for me.

mine has always been friday and Saturday so no change for me, but driving into the city this morning i noticed a heck of a lot more traffic then a usual day, probably because of schools opening and the like.

We used to be half day Thursday & Friday off.

Now we have the full 2 day weekend, and it was great.

Nope - same weekend for us.

My daughter's school doesn't open until Thursday - so traffic may get worse!

So your daughter goes to School on Thursday and then the weekend, wow, doesn't make a lot of sense from the admin side?

S&O - I agree, doesn't make much sense. I double checked that this was the case, and it is.

Shut up DK. BTW do you want your money for the hair cut?
