Weekend - The end or the start?

Got a forward in an official mailer list today.

This article is very old (August 91 - the page states), but is relevant even today!

It talks about work, leisure; how the week-end came to exist and how it evolved over time. Makes a very nice read, albeit lengthy.

Josh and I were talking on similar lines last weekend about this whole concept of doing 'something' (read going out, watching movies etc.) during weekends. I was for the cause , of course!
