This has all to do with His agenda.
You can't just expect Him to receive the whole world in one day. He just booked each country individually.
(and those countries that don't celebrate it are on his s*** list)

I have to agree... for example, shorthand date form:Originally Posted by SlyMaelstrom
American: mm/dd/yy, eg 11/24/06
Canadian: dd-mm-yy, eg 24-11-06
I sense sarcasm in your smiley there... do you perhaps not see the logic in the leading month?
The real question is... do you write 24 November, 2006 or November 24, 2006?

Of course I do... America's always ahead of the pack, and Canada's the last to follow. Always. Every single time. Another good example, website endings:
America: .us or .com
Canada: .ca
Of course we use the former!The real question is... do you write 24 November, 2006 or November 24, 2006?
Hey, I like .ca. It's snazzy. .us sounds pretentious, but .ca kinda sounds like "Hey, everyone. Part-ay over he-ya!"... which I suppose is also pretentious. Regardless, Canada is good at hockey and that is a scientific fact.

But nothing can compare with .com... it sounds sort of like C++, like "I'm accessing member data from my object!"
*sigh*... some people get all the fun
And who's been winning the Stanley Cup lately? It wouldn't be US, would it?Regardless, Canada is good at hockey and that is a scientific fact.
How many Canadians on those Stanley Cup winning teams? Besides, I didn't say you were the best.Though all time, I'd probably rank Canada the best closely followed by Soviet Union/Russia.

Of course they had to get an "eh" in it!
My favorite Canada hack:
Why do Canadians say 'eh' all the time?
Just spell Canada out loud.
C-A-N-A-D-A
With regard to date representation, I think ISO 8601 makes the most sense.
7. It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
40. There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.*
Yeah, actually it's more like "Hey Bud-day... I'm aboot to throw a party over here."

You'd think Canada's domain ending would be .eh, not .ca.
There are 10 types of people in this world, those who cringed when reading the beginning of this sentence and those who salivated to how superior they are for understanding something as simple as binary.
"Where can I search the web reliably?" "google.eh"
Now, that's cool.

Wow, this got off-topic
off-topic is overrated
