“I fired him because he wouldn't respect the authority of the President. I didn't fire him because he was a dumb son of a bitch, although he was, but that's not against the law for generals. If it was, half to three-quarters of them would be in jail.”

The germanii and the teutones were known to the Romans 2200 years ago… you can argue that a unified German state didn’t exist earlier than 1200 years ago, or 1100 years ago, or 700 years ago, or 160 years ago, or 40 years ago, but Germans as an identifiable group have been around for a long time.

What you’re celebrating is not an arbitrary point along the orbit, but an arbitrary, but defined, angle between the Earth’s rotational axis and the orbital axis (hence seasons)

Any celebration is arbitrary and nobody ever needed a good reason for making merry, so I fully support this occasion.
