Today is traditionally Tax Day! You have a few extra days to write your checks, though, because Washington, D.C. is celebrating Emancipation Day today. The holiday, which celebrates the freeing of slaves, is usually celebrated on the 16th, but since the 16th falls on a Saturday, all celebrations will take place today. Therefore, you don't owe Uncle Sam until Monday. (source)
