Gone but not forgotten: Easter as a rotating holiday.
Announced today, the "mystery" of the Last Supper was solved. Of course, until I saw the headline, I didn't know that Matthew, Mark and Luke contradicted John as to the date of that last meal -- but hey, I'm no biblical scholar. Apparently, with this solution, Easter can now be celebrated every year on April 5.
Assuming this gets accepted by those in authority (are you listening, Pope?) and takes off ...snowy egg hunts, you will be missed.

Gone but not forgotten: adult only time at the Marriott.
In case you haven't heard, the Marriott chain has "killed" the adult only pay-per-view options from its in house entertainment systems. And, apparently, it's not for any noble reason -- it's just that in modern times, people that are so inclined pack their porn with them on their laptop or iPad. As they prepare to announce their first quarter earnings, they've already provided this guidance -- "growth has been [less] than expected". I have a feeling that many of your older creepier non-technology-oriented male customers might be, ahem ... saying the same thing.
Exclaiming at the front desk the morning after, "but I hit that button on the remote by mistake" ... you will be missed.

I LOVE WHEN THEY SOLVE MYSTERIES THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT:
