merry christmas 2036! while wrapping presents, i came across this 2008 desk calendar that i must have received last xmas but never opened. i was about to toss it when i realised that i could re-gift it in 2013 when the days of the week would line up again. BUT, then it struck me that 2008 is a leap year. SO, the next year that is both a leap year AND the days line up properly is 2036. if you and i are still around at that time, it will be my secret santa gift to you. i wonder how many of those 366 “wacky web sites” will still be around in 28 years when you get your present.
