Everybody's Favorite Hair Care Product brings you the Solstice GeekBreak!!!

Did yall know that while this is the longest day of the year - it is neither the latest evening of the year nor the earliest morning?? The answer is in the analemma. (No - Not you, Anal Emma. Go back to the pay porn sites from whence you came. Shoo!)

Picture the whole analemma sliding sinuously, sensuously, across the sky. The highest point on that figure-eight is the earliest sunrise - but it's a tad offset from the longest day right at the tip. Cool, huh??
