A funny aside: Years ago I worked with a man that frequently came to me for answers and guidance about our work. Well, there came a day as Spring approached in which he questioned the odd placement of Spring break on the calendar. I explained that the vacation was placed that way to accommodate the fact Passover landed after Easter that year. The guys eyes opened wide with glee, he claimed that he had me on a better authority on this one. He proudly explained that Jesus was Jewish and celebrating Passover Seder at the Last Supper, so therefore Passover had to come before Easter. And he had to over ride my usual authority on this one, as on this topic he had the superior education and authority. He then told me a secret he had been keeping the entire time he had worked with us. He had been a priest. Okay, I admit that threw me for a second. And then I got my mind straight and responded.... But being a priest doesn't make you an expert on the Jewish calendar, which differs from the RC Church calendar, so Passover and Easter (as do, Chanukah and Christmas) always fall near each other, but not at the same time each year. He was a really nice guy, but needed enlightenment is so many ways. "Don't count the days, make the days count"

Now, did you tell him about the time the English Parliament dropped 11 days from the calendar in 1752 in an effort to REALLY blow his mind?
