I do the knuckle counting thing.


Ball your hands into fists and hold them together in front of you. Count the knuckles as months that have 31 days, and the space between your knuckles as months that have 30 days. (Save Feb, of course, but you should know about Feb.)

My grandfather taught me that

I talk quickly on the phone (not fast, but like I'm always in hurry), so I end up talking over the other person more often that not, and my goodbyes are hardly ever normal or audible cause the other person is usually saying something too. Meh.

the original is:

30 days hath september, april, june, and november
all the rest have 31, excepting february, alone, which has 28 days clear and 29 in each leap year.

It happened to me just yesterday: "That apple is tasty". It was a peach.

threads like these where i focus on coming up with some interesting example from my own life and fail miserably.
