Don't let the door hit you...

So I was thinking as I was making my way home this evening walking through the freshly fallen glistening snow that I am so glad that February is finally over. February to me, despite having the fewest calendar days is the longest month of the year

You know what? I am glad it is a leap year. Because if it were not then Pasaach would be March 20, instead of April 20. However, the end of February does sound nice.

Well now, whose stupid idea was that?

I believe that you can blame it on the solar system. However, if you are looking for a person to blame, you better start pointing your finger at Pope Gregory XIII. He implemented the Gregorian calendar with leap year every four years to make up for the fact that the solar year is six hours longer than 365 days. February was chosen as the month for the extra day in order to keep the spring equinox on March 21.
