Or the green one - it's not wintergreen flavored!

Pretty spot on; leaves out the 3-5 Hallmark channels that started running Christmas movies already....

Looks to me, like we have an EXTRA day to Christmas shop!

[healey36]

Leap-November...comes around every two thousand or so years.

That would be why big box stares are saying. " We're going to be closed on Thanksgiving this year so people can be with their families" They don't give a rats *** about workers families. They have an extra day.

Healey has it correct. Remember the old grade school rhyme:

“Thirty days has [or hath] September, April, June, and November. All the rest have 31, except February, which has 28 in fine, and each leap year 29."

Healey and I are referring to the graphic showing November with 31 days, thus leap November.

If the Earth would cooperate and circle the Sun in exactly 365 days we wouldn't have this problem, but we have to adjust every 4 years! Maybe we can get Greta Thunberg to lobby for Leap November and add it to the Black Friday melee!

Nah! Won't work, E7. Greta only wants to destroy capitalism and install socialism. She's not even interested in "Climate Change" any more.

Didja ever wonder how such a young girl could become a commie? I don't think she's even 17 yet. Somebody musta started the indoctrination at a very young age to create the little Brownshirt.

Ahh, Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg.
Born: January 3, 2003 (age 19 years old), Stockholm, Sweden

Thunberg says she first heard about climate change in 2011, when she was eight years old, and could not understand why so little was being done about it. The situation made her depressed and as a result, at the age of 11, she stopped talking and eating much and lost ten kilograms (22 lb) in two months.] Eventually, she was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), and selective mutism. In one of her first speeches demanding climate action, Thunberg described the selective mutism aspect of her condition as meaning she "only speaks when necessary". Tunberg does not view her Asperger's as an illness, and has instead called it her "superpower" --Wikipedia

I don't think her parents are happy about her activism. For about two years, Thunberg challenged her parents to lower the family's carbon footprint and overall impact on the environment by becoming vegan, upcycling, and giving up flying. She has said she tried showing them graphs and data, but when that did not work, she warned her family that they were stealing her future.

Her mother gave up flying and had to give up her international career as an opera singer.

Does Greta understand someone else took her mother’s sear?

Reminds me of the Leave it to Beaver episode where they made him class fire chief. He went overboard on safety with family and friends, until Gus the fireman straightened him out with common sense and logic. Where's Gus when we need him?

Where's Gus when we need him?

Dead & buried with the other fossils.
