Common Days
What do the following have in common: Friday in June and Sunday in October?
They never have a holiday fall on them. No Fridays in June or Sundays in October (Father's day is always on a Sunday in June, and Halloween can fall on any day of the week except Sunday, when it is usually moved to Saturday)
Leave your answer or, if you want to post a question of your own, send me an e-mail. Look in the about section to find my e-mail address. If it's new, I'll post it soon.
Please don't leave spam or 'Awesome blog, come visit mine' messages. I'll delete them soon after.

jonathan figured it out. Neither of the pairs share a letter, unlike every other day of the week and month pair.
