"Big" Birthday....
October 16 used to be a very special day in Albania. It is Enver Hoxha's birthday. I don't have any specific memories about this particular day, but I think if you ask any Albanians my age or (definitely) older about the significance of this day, they will be able to tell you all about it. I know that during the socialist years it was a national holiday.
Enver Hoxha was the ruler of Albania from 1944 (end of WWII) to April 15, 1985 (Isn't it scary I know this date? I swear I didn't google it!). His impact on Albania is so huge that I can't even begin to describe it. Anyway, here is some material if you want to read more about him, and if you want to see a short video of him, check out this clip.

16 tetori eshte nje dite qe u munduam ta harronim sa me shpejt. Diskutoja me nje shoqe, shqiptare gjithashtu, qe me kujtoi qe zakonisht kjo dite shfrytezohej per te bere aksione - mbledhje gruri, pastrim teritori dhe te tjera te lezecme si keto. Ne fakt ne qe kemi jetuar ate epoke, nuk ja falim enverit qe na rriti me friken dhe varferine.
We realy want to forget about this garbage but some new comunists are still hangin his picture in they rooms.
