Why is Father's Day....

[gritsar]

Why is Father's Day late this year? Anybody know?
Come the first week in June I mailed off a Father's day card to my Dad like always, only to look at the calender a few days later and discover it's not until next weekend.
We were discussing it at a party yesterday, but nobody knew why. I realize that today is Flag Day. Perhaps the Powers-That-Be didn't want two holidays on the same day?

Father's day is the third sunday in June so it depnds on what day the first falls on that is why it is so late this year. Next year it is the 20th then the following year the 19th.
