Stamattina, come tutte le mattine…
Arrivo in ufficio sudata come dopo un’ora
di palestra (reminescenze della mia passata vita "sportiva"), affannata e affranta per non essere riuscita a timbrare il
cartellino alle 9:00 in punto!(come al solito)
Accendo il PC e avvio i programmi mentre
vado a farmi un caffé.
L’inbox é pieno delle solite merdate
di lavoro.
Il Browser si apre in automatico:
Gioachino Rossini gets a Google Doodle for his
220th birthday. Or is it his 53rd?
Gioachino
Rossini — the famed Italian composer behind The Barber of
Seville — turns 220
today. Sort of. Depending how you’re counting, he might be a comparably
sprightly 53.
It is, of course, February 29:
Leap Day.
It takes the Earth about 365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes
and 16 seconds to orbit the sun, so (almost) every four years, a day is added
to keep the calendar in sync with the seasons. Occasionally, the calendar will
leap the leap day to adjust for the fact that the extra time isn’t exactly six
hours per year. (And lets not even get into leap seconds.)
The uneven numbers create an interesting situation for people born
on Feb. 29 — leapers. For legal purposes, their birthdays will be on either
Feb. 28 or March 1 in non-leap years — which depends on the country they’re in.
Ma perché...oggi é il 29??!! ...Cazzo!
Grazie Google!
P.S.
Happy Birthday Gioacchi’!
