Manskeeto? Is that like the porn star equivalent to Magneto in a pornographic version of X-Men?

Not to mention "XXX-Men: I'm the Jug-Nut's Bitch!"

If you are born on February 29th, when should you celebrate your birthday the three years there isn't a 29th? February 28th or March 1st? When exactly is it that you are born? The day after the 28th? Or the day before March 1st? Funny thing. While I was not born in a leap year, my birthday accourding to Persian calendar can fall on Feb. 28, Feb 29 or March 1st, depending which year we are talking about. It is still quite confusing to me. For a long time I thought I was born on Feb 28, but then I realized it had been actually March 1st, after seeing the actual calendar of that year.  My whole foundation of existance started shaking at that moment.

Afs I don't know what calendar you have there, but we have something like that as well. It is a lunar calendar and the birthdays are based on a "star" (I guess they are constellations rather, I don't know but we call them stars). There are 27 "stars" and each year the birthday falls on a completely different date, not just a day here or there. It is all very confusing. My father studied astronomy and he is very patient in explaining me the Indian system of stars, lunar cycles, solar cycles etc a million times. I understand it well when he explains, but cannot remember a thing afterwards  It is very interesting, but complex at the same time. The western calendar is all I can handle I guess. BTW, not everyone followed lunar cycles traditionally in India, I think the majority followed a solar calendar, but not the western one.

The simplest way to introduce ours is to say the zodiac months are based on this calendar. For more information check out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_calendarThis calendar has 5 leap years every 33 years observed on March 20th, which explains the confusion between the dates, as the other calendar has one leap year simply every four years. But this calendar is the most accurate when the seasonal swings are concerned.

We don't talk as much anymore, DVC. Where the hell have you been? I miss getting into over the top debates on music that usually end with death threats and "yer mom" jokes with you.
