July! I can say, Out of the Blue "Oh, on July 7 let's ____" (There! it's That Month and.. the date. Year is implicit unless added, "'0x") (If THIS month, "Oh, on the 7th yada.." (Or would you prefer, proximo / ultimo? / Enclosed please find..) Short, direct - minimal suspense, fewest syl-la'-bles. HTH You silly..
Post #294,051 by CRConrad 10/2/07 3:49:10 PM Reply	Then skip the "of": "On 7 July..." ...need not be any more ungrammatical than the converse: It's just convention that declares "July 7" grammatically correct; start using "Oh, on 7 July let's ____", and then that becomes the convention and therefore "correct". Plus, its endianism will make sense. [link\|mailto:MyUserId@MyISP.CountryCode\|Christian R. Conrad] (I live in Finland, and my e-mail in-box is at the Saunalahti company.)

(And these kiddie hussies, PaBritSey and their ilk, are just not the same thing -- freaking toddlers, for one thing, and zero fucking curves, for another -- so I really can't work up the least bit of care-about for any of them...) So what else is there I should care about? [link\|mailto:MyUserId@MyISP.CountryCode\|Christian R. Conrad] (I live in Finland, and my e-mail in-box is at the Saunalahti company.)
