I over slept and wasn't ready to end it on time on the 21st

I've tentatively rescheduled it for for next easter.

Why in the world do Americans put the month before the day???

12/ 21/ 2012 (month/ day/ year) ??

21/ 12/ 2012 (day/ month/ year), isn't that more logical? :)

And the world didn't end simply because.... Chuck Norris WASN'T READY FOR IT TO END YET.

the price of desert scum gun toting tea party clowns just went way down, but they are not folks who look into the mirror often, so buy/plant food instead, and ignore these other clowns, they are out of touch with reality.

it's modeling print from speech...

we typically say "december twenty first two thousand twelve"

it seems more common in europe to say "the twenty first of december two thousand twelve"

For the same reason we drive on the right side of the road instead of the left. For the same reason we spell it "color" and not "colour." For the same reason we said, "Fuck off!" to poor old crazy King George.

Cuz, that's just how we roll.

Wrong hand, what are you talking about?! We use BOTH hands for the fork in the Good Ol' US of A!

In the American style, also called the zig-zag method, the knife is initially held in the right hand and the fork in the left. Holding food to the plate with the fork tines-down, a single bite-sized piece is cut with the knife. The knife is then set down on the plate, the fork transferred from the left hand to the right hand, and the food is brought to the mouth for consumption. The fork is then transferred back to the left hand and the knife is picked up with the right.
