I WISH this is what it looked like this year! But no, everything is still snowless. Global warming?! (This picture is from 2010.)

8 Days A Week?!?, Part 2

There are several theories behind the "8 Days A Week" mishap.
My mom, a fellow blogger, said that maybe they count Sunday again as another day of the week in England. "Or maybe they have 8 days per week over there...."
Our cousin K, creator of the Cousin Studios box office hit "Llama-O-Rama", also had a solution. "But I'm not going to tell you, you'll have to figure it out for yourself," he said. Suspense!
And then, of course, there's.....
QUINSDAY.
Duh duh duh duh.....

It all started after the earthquake in Chile. A few of our classmates claimed that on a certain TV channel that most of us "probably didn't have" announced that the earthquake shifted the Earth's rotation, which made every week have an extra day called "Quinsday." We would have an extra day off of school each week and 400 days (something like that) in every year, and they weren't lying, and if we though they were, look it up on Bing.
So I did.
And what were the search results?
Something to do with a European concert.
Duh duh duh duh...
BUSTED!!!! =)

So maybe, the Beatles were early believers of the only 3-hour day in the middle of Wednesday and Thursday. Hopefully, they weren't.

So, for now, the mystery remains unsolved....

  1. Here's another one to ponder: what does it mean when they say someone gives "110% effort"? How can anything be more than 100%? Is loving someone eight days a week like giving 110% effort?
