Just suppose for a second that some freaky circumstance causes the earth to rotate around the sun 30 days quicker than it does now. What month would you eliminate? Or would you just make each existing month 28 days long? Oops, that doesn't add up (365-30 = 335 whereas 28 x 12 = 336). So, reduce February to 27 days? How would you handle the birthdays of people born after the 28th of a month (27th of Feb)? Let them all celebrate on the 28th? Or maybe sacrifice them to whatever evil force caused the shift in the first place? Hmmmm, that would eliminate over 8% of the people on an over-populated earth - not a bad idea.
Yeah, January is my least favorite month. Nothing good happens all month, it's freezing outside, and the holidays just ended so I have a feeling of dread that all the fun is over.
I'd eliminate February because it's so screwed up anyway - number of days wise. But that would leave 2 days to be distributed elsewhere (1 on a leap year). Wait, my husband was born in February,
The first month that popped into my head was January as well. It's freezing cold and a little depresssing since all of the holiday festivities are over. I'm usually kinda down in January and have a difficult time getting to work on time. ugh...
No it isn't. I object! January is nice because all the neurotic hoopla of the holidays is over and things are peaceful. It's also nice and warm if you are in the southern hemisphere. .
Id say march...its tricks us into thinking winters over by letting some snow melt and then BLAMMMMMMMMM!!! 4 foot drifts overnight..I freaking hate that..and the melted slush freezes into ruts in the road ...worst storms are always in march...plus january is generally calm and we usually get a nice warm week then
if the earth is just moving faster around the sun, the seasons would remain the same, only 7.5 days shorter each. so i'd get rid of august so that the rest of the months have a few more warm days to distribute amongst themselves.
I Say Screw July....... The 3rd Of July Is My B-Day.... I Am Rapidly Running Out Of B-Days.... I Need To Stall For Extra Playing Time............ Cheers Glen.
