Blue Moon
 

"A blue moon is a full moon that is not timed to the regular monthly pattern. Most years have twelve full moons which occur approximately monthly, but in addition to those twelve full lunar cycles, each calendar year contains an excess of roughly eleven days. The extra days accumulate, so that every two or three years (on average about every 2.7154 years[1]), there is an extra full moon. The extra moon is called a "blue moon." Different definitions place the "extra" moon at different times."

Yes, and the really weird thing? This December, not only will there be a blue moon, but, get this, Friday the thirteenth, believe it or not, will come on a Sunday!

however since Kentucky is one of 2 states I detest enough that I will drive around them rather than through them the blue moon will have to shine on without me.

Re: Blue Moon
 

Hhmmm... :hmmm wonder which song is stuck in my head...

I don't think any that have been posted are it.

It's more of the doo-wop era.

Re: Blue Moon
 

Well, of course the Elvis version is good. Anything Elvis did is good.

Was that his first record?

Speaking of Elvis.....

Anybody believe Elvis is still alive?

Anybody believe his name was really Ellis and is related to me?

Anybody believe Elvis is in Heaven?

Anybody believe Elvis was baptized in Jesus' Name?
