Only28 days is because it’s not a leap year.

Because thats where the “extra hours” come from to power daylight savings.

You think those come from Obamas private stash?

Civ, just trying to throw some humor into a ‘dry’ subject.

Nope, just take a calendar to the Sahara or Gobi deserts and they will be quite dry. Let’s find some humor kiddo. And I look at a calendar and realize that one has to go through 18 or 21 of them before they are old enough for drinking booze, those are definitely “dry calendar years.”

The desert is a good place when people just want to gobi by themselves for a while.
