Leap with Joy

30 days have September, April, June and November,
All the rest have 31, except February Alone
And everytime when leap year comes
Thats when February has 29...
(guess thats how it goes)
That was the rhyme we used to sing to remember about the days of the year...
Hey just noticed today is leap day, or rather Feb 29 which is in a leap year. Why I am writing about this, and what's so special? Well, during the last leap year there wasnt any blogger.com and blogs introduced....
Did you know leap year is also called intercalary year; i.e. one containing extra days than the regular calendar year. Well, everybody does know the reason why it is so, and I dont have to go about explaining that...

The Super Week

Well, it started with the "Super"bowl on Sunday with the Giants beating the Patriots. Though am not a big fan of football, this is one event I like to catch up... just for the fun of spending time with my friends. We follow the American tradition of gathering at somebody's house, with the usual starters, appetizers and food: - wings, fries, soda, beer and pizza and our own Indian junk food like bhelpuri and bajji . The rest of the events include predicting the quarter scores, deviating from the football topics, catching up with friends and such. So the weekend ended with the giant superbowl win.
Today the super continues with "Super" Tuesday for the 24 states voting and candidates vouching for last minute "deals", well last minute appeals. I really am not sure why this has the super adjective tagged though (is it coz it follows superbowl... lol )
After this I was thinking what could be the next topic on the Super week... and while I was just browsing came across this... France today unveils The AGV (Automotrice Grande Vitesse) - a train which will travel at up to 360km/h (224mph) and can be compared to the world's largest airplane, the Airbus A380.
That was just an addition to the two big Supers happening in the US of A since I found a fancy to comment on the Superbowl and the Super Tuesday... Maybe there's more to come since the week has just begun...
