Happy Evacuation Day!!!

Paku is prepared to admit that he is not as well versed in American history as he should be. As a result, Paku was alarmed by the presence of a small army in 18th century military dress armed with muskets, bayonets fixed, marching on Wall Street this afternoon. As Paku was preparing to seek cover from the onslaught, he was handed an informative leaflet. As it turns out, today is the 225th anniversary of the evacuation of New York City by the British. Happy Evacuation Day!!

Seasons Greetings!!

Nothing says Merry Christmas to Paku quite like a giant Christmas tree erected in the middle of a street that has been closed to traffic to prevent terrorists from destroying the surrounding buildings being decorated by men in hardhats on some kind of crane in the shadow of a giant American flag made of Christmas lights. Paku hopes this moving image gets you in the holiday spirit too.
