I always thought the Saturday and Sunday were called the "weekend"
because the were the first and last days of the week. You know the
two ENDS? If your first day of the week is Monday, the Sunday and
Monday would be the ends, Saturday is somewhere between the ends.

I know that this doesn't belong here, but what the heck, it's Friday
and I leave for ComDEX soon and will not be reading the flames.
