The answer came in white and black. In the Farmer's Almanac, it says

Today is Friday, February 21, unless you are reading this on the wrong day. Go back and re-wind your calendar if this has happened. It is the 52nd day of the year, which is why most people don't think it worth gathering in monstrously huge crowds in Times Square to ring the day in, but that doesn't mean it isn't still a pretty good day if it's your birthday or if you're celebrating the birth of John Rawls or something.

Everything else about the coming day is over on my humor blog. Other stuff appears over there. Since Our Rabbit's Cold Demands last week the humor blog has also featured:

• Unintentional Laughs, my immature giggling about a Mary Worth and a vintage Flash Gordon comic.
• Cool Comparisons, my discovery of what some really harsh winters were like.
• Mathematics Comics, Over That Way, just pointing over to my mathematics blog and mentioning Working Daze some.
• Everything I Understand About Cribbage, which isn't much.
• Statistics Saturday: Hi, Dad, a weekly statistical posting with special focus on my father.
• An Embarrassing Clarification, about a dream warning from earlier in the week.

Trivia: At the 1928 St Moritz Winter Olympics, Jacob Tullin Thams made a ski jump of a world record 73 meters. His record-setting leap earned him only 28th place, however, as judging was made on distance and style, and Thams lost his balance at the finish line and crashed beyond the slope of the hill's run-out. He spent the rest of the games in hospital. Source: Encyclopedia of the Modern Olympic Movement, Editors John E Findling, Kimberly D Pelle. (Thams would go on to win a silve medal in yachting in the 1936 Summer Olympics.)

Currently Reading: A Splintered History of Wood, Spike Carlsen. It's a fun book, but awfully casually written. I keep finding stuff I know that maybe isn't exactly wrong but I don't agree with the context exactly, and the typos are bugging me even if it's just a couple apostrophe errors.
