Cancer Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER The thing that really got me p.o.'ed was an assertion that it'll be OK in 2013 (but they gave no details on how that would work, i.e., they haven't worked it out and are covering up that they flat-out committed an error through dereliction of duty this time), AND they said that it's considered too confusing -- they carefully did not say who considered it too confusing, which means it's them -- to apply a fix.

Cancer Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Since this is a Jesuit school, to blame Congress would get into the whole separation of church and state thing, and that's third rail I'd just as soon not pee on.

Cancer Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Heh. Those idiots would utterly fail to comprehend the Hebrew calendar. The very concept of intercalary months would have them calling out for progroms to deal with those who ever promulgated such an idea.

Bazza Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Since they have remade Footloose, why not remake Grease, but this time use an age-appropriate cast. examples of age-appropriate casts High School Musical, and Glee.
