Good Friday, should it be a day of the past?

Good Friday needs to be reviewed under today's circumstances.
We are in a midst of a recession. The government are actively trying to encourage everyone to spend money.
So, can we give Good Friday a break?,even for a few years until we can get ourselves sorted financially.
Even for the sake of religion, can we change it to a Good Monday?
Having a Friday when every bar and niteclub in the land is closed is annoying.
Everyone looks forward to a Friday night out, it's the end of the week, you just want to let your hair down and party.
Potentially we could of spent hundreds of euros tonight
but sadly not, we drove around the city looking for some sign of life
along with numerous other taxi drivers driving aimlessly like butterflies towards the city lights.
We all headed home.
A Good Monday instead would make a lot of sense. Mondays are days of rest after the weekend,you have time to think and ponder about life and religion.
It's a good evening to spend time with your family.
A Good Monday after an Easter Sunday makes you even feel good,
like a new week to look forward too.
Work on Tuesday would record no sick days
and summer feels positively closer.
It would be a step in the right direction.

Former First Family find fun ways to finance their future

Dubya moves to Dallas
and begins his new career as a celebrity speaker.
The ex-President with the worse approval ratings on record
is only charging $150,000 per speech which is great value for a night of comedy.
It's a lot less than Tony Blair's £240,000 which wouldn't be half as fun.
Bill Clinton made over £11 million from 91 speaking events, eat your heart out Bertie!
Sadly for Dubya there are no publishers banging his door down yet for a glimpse of his memoirs.To help fill the family coffers, Laura Bush has stepped in to secure a multi-million dollar book deal to write about being a mother . This is guaranteed to be a hit as mother/daughter books are always best sellers.

Weekend drugs struggle to remain high

The cocaine trade is seriously showing downcast results.
Prices are plummeting as dealers outside
The White horse stare in dismay.
A line of coke is cheaper than a pint of beer
yet takers are low on the ground
as the weekend becomes one night.
The Katie French affair dampened coke sales too,
with purity levels continuously declining.
The heroin market is still afloat
and guaranteed to be pretty stable
due to it's high addiction rates.
Alcohol is cheaper to buy up north,
and cigarettes are too damn expensive to contemplate.
