Top 7 Days of the Week
1. - Friday
A kind of cathartic release day. It's really no different from any of the other weekdays but, it kinda is.
2. - Saturday
A whole day to yourself, except, of course, you've put a ton of things off all wek to do on the weekend so it's probably going to be filled with more work than what you did all week.
3. - Sunday
A whole day to do all the crap you didn't do Saturday.
4. - Wednesday
Hump day & I still think it's spelled funny.
5. - Monday
A fresh start to the work week.
6. - Tuesday
Has a fresh youngish, invigorated feel week after week after week….
7. - Thursday
It's almost Friday.

Home of the Midwestern Hayride Ranks Near Bottom of Smartest Cities List
These lists are so dumb... If these guys read cincinnati.com's comments sections, the town would probably be rated at the bottom of the list. They cite the area's non-fiction book sales suck. This explains a lot about the the rampant provincialism.
Hey, Cletus, gowan'n fetch me muh bahble & muh shotgun, y'heah.
