On This Day: National Mule Day

Git’ along now donkey! Or eh…mule.  It’s about time someone recognizes these workhorses (or work-mules?).  Mules must be very confused creatures.  If you stop to think: they’re not a donkey, they’re not a horse, and they’re sterile.  Talk about an identity crisis!  One thing they do have going for them – work.  Nobody can deny that these beasts are hard workers.  They certainly put forth more effort than some people around DCP ::cough:: ::cough:: Cassius!  March 31st is National Mule Day and marks the beginning of a 4-day celebration.  Don’t have anything better to do this weekend?  Check out the Mule Day festivities!
