Yeah. I was working on a little bit of code for my company's website and trying to hash out Thanksgiving. Then I remembered Easter was right around the corner and I figured it would use similar code. Then I discovered that Easter is based off phases of the moon and stuff.

So, I just found a list of the dates of Easter for the next 8 years (as well as Thanksgiving and President's Day) and coded them in. I got done a lot faster. If I'm still here maintaining the programs 8 years from now, I'll worry about it then.
