Good grief, what a putz I am, must have been thinking of today's date, which just changed to the 3rd, but the news item was listed as the 2nd ..it's half right anyway, lolol. English is always evolving, but not that much! Sorry about that. :)
No problem, it was fun ...
But when you think about it, "2rd" is sorta like what we insulted each other with in grade school! :-)
