Oh jeez.. You folks and your palindromes and grubs and stuff.

Do you ever realize that there is this.. well... this part of the population "out there" that barely knows what day it is, let alone what month we're in..or maybe even year? I'm still writing the year 2000 most of the time... that is, when I have to write down the date on something..which is almost NEVER.

Yup. There is this leetle segment of the population that just notices what kind of dawn it's gonna be, how the clouds look, what kind of birds are coming to the bird feeder this week, and which ones are starting to sing to attract their mates... This kind of person is often barely cognizant of the days, weeks or years, except when being asked to dine in Chinatown because it's the such-and-such day of the month and the numbers are suggesting a good evening for an auspicious occasion. o-kaaaayyyyyy.

Main thing is, we people.. the ones who don't keep track of this kind of stuff... must rely on those who do. Well, not that we're actually much concerned about it, you understand, but we do try to keep up appearances.

Good to see you "here", amigo.
