December 2009 will see its second full moon today. I think it’s cool, but may I call it a Blue Moon?

It seems that purists (and my brother) would belittle me and mock my ignorance if I were to do so, so I will simply say it is the second full moon in a single month and this occurs only 7 times every 19 years. I should have brought it up at Christmas so that my brother and I could have gotten into yet another argument over stupid-ass stuff.

Thanks for the snow tonight.
