Leap Second!!!


Guess what, guess what!! At midnight tonight, December 31, we gain an extra second.

"A leap second is an intercalary, one-second adjustment that keeps broadcast standards for time of day close to mean solar time. Leap seconds are used to keep time standards synchronized with civil calendars, the basis of which is astronomical." - Wikipedia

I just thought I'd inform you all of this extra second, and to encourage you to use this second wisely. Maybe you could take the extra second to pick your nose, or crack your knuckles. Really live on the wild side :) You could even take this second to tell a close friend that you love them. Well, actually you'd probably get out "I Love" in the extra second, so the "You" would take away from your regular scheduled time, but I think they're worth your time ;) I hope everyone has a wonderful Leap Second!
