Happy Extra Day

I'm not quite sure how this February 29th lark works. I mean, how did we work it out and is it really correct? What would happen if we just dispensed with the day? Hmmm? Would it really make a difference? Would the clocks eventually be out of synch?

Don't get me wrong, I like the fact we have this mad day every four years. It's quirky. But I just don't understand how we know...

Anyway, enjoy today. It's Friday, quite springlike, and well, life's too short and it's nice to have an extra day.

    Calendars, time, extra days, all part of the great illusion. I prefer to stick with "now" -it's simpler! ;-)
    Have a wonderful weekend, MD!

    Very true, Vanilla! Much simpler.
    Look after yourself :-)
