Today is Presidents Day.

Now, my bosses did not deem it necessary for me to have the day off to ponder the greatness of those men who have in the past ensured that our great democracy would survive and flourish, but nevertheless, I did manage to squeeze in a couple of minutes' worth of contemplation (while on the can, mostly).

In honor of such a day, I present the following video, quite possibly the best video ever created by man (or beast, for that matter). Now, what connection could this video possibly have with Presidents Day? Well, being a president is all about sacrifice. You have to move to Washington D.C., you have millions of strangers looking into the most private details of your life (such as, did that prostitute die before or after you had sex with her?), and you have to constantly attend meeting with foreigners who want to constantly talk to you about boring things such as the global economy. In exchange for this, all you get is wealth, fame, and the guarantee that your name will always be remembered as long as America exists (unless, of course, your name is Zachary Taylor). In other words, it takes an incredibly selfless person to agree to take on the heavy task of running this country.

Similarly, this video reminds me of another group of people who know all too well about sacrifice: peach farmers. Like presidents, peach farmers put the good of others before their own well-being, bravely fending off ninja attacks, just so they can bring us nature's candy in our hands or can or a pie.

(oh, also incidentally, the name of the band who sings the song is the Presidents of the United States of America. That connection probably would have made more sense. Anyway, enjoy)
