Yes, the calendar is deeply and fundamentally broken. The problem is, the amount of time it takes the planet to rotate once on its axis has no fundamental relationship to the amount of time it takes for the planet to revolve once around the sun. So, trying to fit days into years doesn’t work well.

Be sure to check the calendars’ Best Used By Dates printed on the packages. Otherwise, how will you know?

Starting it on Monday would have been a bad omen.

The question is: is that stub the first week or does it start with the first Monday of the new year?
