LMAO.....I thought it was a French Holiday of some flavor ;)

VERY curious I am not seeing that on google.com or google.de. The Gregorian calendar is used worldwide.

Good one percentages.
Victory Day?

>>French Holiday

Frogs Legs! I've only ordered them once or twice and they're good. But somehow I don't think the idea would appeal to someone who keeps pet frogs to think about cooking them.

It took me a minute to figure that the frogs were *leaping* for leap year because it's Feb. 29th - as in the leap frog game that kids play. I never played leapfrog, but I had a pet tree frog in Tallahassee years ago and I could not have cooked the little fellow.

It's a leap year 'cos a feast on a fixed date normally advances by one named day of the week per year, but following a leap year it advances 2 days.
Note 1) nothing to do with Frogs :)
Note 2) just messed up my computers' dates and times checking this :(
Note 3) 'cos used as it sounds more matey and less pompous.
Note 4) As opposed to a "moveable feast" e.g. Easter, which has no fixed date.

Marcia,
Tallahassee? What gives?

Powdork, just a good ol' boy from Gainesville.:)

Why is it that every time there is a new logo, someone rushes to WW to tell about it? LOL

Powdork, I lived in Tallahassee for a year and a half. And all this time I thought you were a woman from California!

crobb, no idea why we - just always do it, and it's our only Foo-type fun thread here in the Google News forum.

I kind of enjoy it because search engines are so "technical" it's a nice reminder that there are actually creative type human beings there, not just machines. And those logos really are great, the artist does a terrific job with integrating them into the regular logo.

spent seven years in the penitent...er, university there. When the law caught up I headed to the frontier.

Woman?!
