Just a note - while legally in many (all?) states you do not have to give a reason for personal time, office cultures vary. If I told my boss I was taking a personal day and gave no further details, she would be suspicious.

Thanks!

Really? The Illuminati (who, by the way, have not existed for centuries) were started in the early 18th century. Are you suggesting they travelled 4,000 years back in time to ancient Mesopotamia and invented money?
