Random Wordplay for Wednesday 12/19/12

The Hanke-Henry Calendar.

Used in a sentence:  "It's the holidays ... and I'm a convert -- not to a new religion but to the Hanke-Henry Calendar!"

You can read all of the details at the link below, but this proposal to make the calendar permanent foreeach year would have Christmas always falling on a Sunday and my birthday always on a Saturday (the better for the drinking) ... AND would include a bonus week of seven days every 5-6 years!  It's perfect for the holidays (and who wouldn't want a bonus week every so often, so long as my employer didn't get wind of it ...)!

After all, if the Mayan calendar is ending, we need a new one, don't we?  Time to adopt this concept!  Let's innovate!  Who's with me?

IT SEEMS TO MAKE SO SENSE:
