2. It's just a weekend feature. And holidays, too, of course.
Today qualifies as both.

And I'm glad to do it. Thanks for being here...

5. Thank you, CalPeg.
My first impulse was to include something from Henry V; chock-full of inspirational military quotes. But they have mostly been done to death. (I've used a lot of them myself in WSTFTD).

I had to look for something less well-known. This seemed to fit perfectly.
