I don't know what frisson is, so I'm substituting friskies in there.

You're right. This whole thing is just one big horrible mess. It has put so much stress on the thing that it's hard to have fun anymore. (Altho Freddie is on it.)

Do em both! Be happy twice! They're both farces. In triplicate.

We might as well be celebrating the birth of the solar system. When you get down to it, the earth is never in the same place; the "year" is never the same length ("size"). It's all Mickey Mouse generalizations. "Arbitrary." ("Well what else is it going to be?!)

And the Mouseketeers celebrating their cheesy calendar January 1 2000 are going to have most of the fun.

So I like JFred's idea. (I knew there was a reason I like him.)
