Intercalary or bissextile year

Sounds intriguing and a bit, dare I say, sexy?
Actually, it’s none of that at all.
It is referencing the Leap Year.
We utilize the Gregorian calendar and most years that are easily divisible by four are leap years.
And the Gregorian calendar is a modification of the Julian calendar by the Romans and it has been this way since 46 B.C., how do you like them apples?
If you too wish to be more informed may I suggest copy and pasting this site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_year

Moving on…
Mitt Romney squeaked by in Michigan last night’s race for the Republican nomination with 41% of the Republican vote winning and took Arizona by a large margin of 47%. Am I crazy, don’t answer that, but when did less than fifty percent become a large margin? Oh, that’s right, its Republican-speak for glass half-full, gotcha, wink, wink. Next Tuesday is Super Tuesday where ten of our states all get to vote for their selection of the nominee for the Republican candidate, and then Mr. Romney, we will see what we can see, hmm? No guts, no glory!
Either way, he still shows in the poles that he cannot beat Obama, our main man who already resides in the Whitehouse, and we all know that in the finale vote on November 6, 2012 that will be the final decision!
As I always feel in my heart and soul that time will tell.

Blogger’s note:
*All I have to say it is nice to see that solid husbands are in the running, not philanderers; although, some have been great presidents in spite of their wandering eyes or other body parts (Oops did I say that, cringe factor), hmm?
Lousy husbands but great leaders, how odd that we the Sodom and Gomorra of the world; without moralities until it comes down to choosing who watches our store/government, we hypocritically become so prudish, how odd, really; wouldn’t you say?

Hubby did his little nicety for the day by putting our neighbor’s garbage can away; the neighbor is a fireman/EMS person and is on duty overnight.
Doing any little thing is good, right, and also considered being neighborly, true?
Creating small acts of kindness are welcomed; you would be so surprised with the reactions from most people, really?
Try it and you may be very overwhelmed with any reaction you get.
Just kinda make sure that they know that you are putting it back in their yard or designated space and not stealing it…that’s why you can do it when no one is home, ha!
Those things are expensive to replace…ya know?

Any-who, be kind and all will be fine and take the time to use your own rhyme…


Now to get back to reality, sadly, again, it is a horrible nasty weather time throughout Tornado Alley of our heartland of America and many states have felt that devastation, to all of us it has caused a mutual sorrow but our hearts and support goes to them all. Please remember that.

Allow me on that bit or sorrow to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with people that need them and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

PS Davy Jones of The Monkees TV show fame, died today of a heart attack at the too young age of sixty-six years, and I do believe he is on that ‘Last Train to Clarksville”, at least I would like to hope/think so…
