In this stenopool, the Blue Moon is special because one of the little typists was born on a Blue Moon, Jan. 31, 1999.
Here is a list of full moon dates.
- July 31, 2004 — Second full moon in July

so……….stupid question for you! I commented on your site the other day, and now I’m getting tons of emails on follow up comments. Yikes! While I enjoy reading them immensley, I find myself spending all my time reading comments, not enough time working. Working vs. reading comments is like eating vs. starving.
So, on to the stupid question - how do I get rid of the comments? I think I may have figured it out as I noticed the little box at the bottom of this comment box and I’ve unchecked it. Is that all I have to do?
thanks so much - and I truly love your column!!

Tam, now that you started crushing everyone with your love you want to just leave?! This is how you treat us?! Man alive…
Yeah, you figured it out with the little check box thing…
But now how will you know that I replied to your comment….hmmm? Hmmm?
BTW, still haven’t thought up any good retaliation for your apes. I’m too lumpy and large to even read more than a Bazooka Joe comic let alone planning tactical maneouvers for your war games.

Don’t mind her TAM: she’s 39 weeks and cranky.(There’s on every blog)
Yes uncheck box and that should do it.
Now can we please start commenting on the post?

Once in a blue moon has a much higher frequency than I initially thought. It’s useful if one is trying to downplay a bad habit. I.e. I only get drunk once in a blue moon.
