…..Anyone understand why it’s necessary?….. Leap years exist because a single year in the Gregorian calendar is slightly shorter than a solar, or tropical, year……the amount of time it takes for Earth to completely orbit the sun once……a calendar year is exactly 365 days long, but a solar year is roughly 365.24 days long, or 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 56 seconds…..if we did not account for this difference, then for each year that passes the gap between the start of a calendar year and a solar year would widen by 5 hours, 48 minutes and 56 seconds……over time, this would shift the timing of the seasons……if we stopped using leap years, then in around 700 years the Northern Hemisphere’s summer would begin in December instead of June, according to the…..National Air and Space Museum….look,….I don’t get it…..I don’t understand it……if we get rid of it…..it’ll probably fast track the extinction of mankind…..because it seems like that’s the path we’re on…..whatever,…..anyway,….one thing is for sure…..February 29^th …..has to be the worse birthday ever…..84-years have to pass…..before you can have your first drink…..in a bar…..or 64…..if you live in Germany.

GERMANY BECOMES THE THIRD EC COUNTRY TO LEGALIZE CANNABIS FOR PERSONAL USE…..About time…..I guess my weed man will be out of a job soon…..the law named Cannabis Act or CanC….will come into effect on April 1^st…..for possession and cultivation…..while cannabis social clubs are anticipated to become operational starting July 1^st….the Narcotics Act (BtMG) will allow individuals to possess up to 25 grams in public…..and 50 grams at home….it also allows the cultivation of up to 3 plants per person at home…..and the social clubs will have up to 500 members…..who will be able to buy 50 grams per month…..that’s not much weed…..my next door neighbor is going to lose it…..she smokes more weed in a month…..than I did in one year of college…..you won’t be able to toke near schools, facilities for children and youth…..children playgrounds and publicly accessible sports facilities within a 10 meters…..the reason for legalizing weed is to put an end to the black market…..Berlin and Hamburg cops have basically said “Whatever” when it came to smoking a joint…..Frankfurt eased up on the use of hard drugs years ago…..and the only city which still has a problem with weed is…..Munich…..so if you visitors think you can just come, hangout and smoke like Amsterdam…..nope….only German citizens and people registered and living in the country legally can….you could fly into Amsterdam, stock up…..and catch the train into Germany…..many lawmakers don’t understand…..they’re worried about young kids…..ages 16 to 25 smoking a lot…..those kids are already smoking…..a lot….if people want to enjoy something that’s banned….it makes it more enticing to do it…..but once it’s legal….the amount of people smoking weed will drop….look at the places where it’s been legal for a while….the amount of people who smoke weed in the Netherlands….aren’t really Dutch……and Portugal….they legalized “Everything”…..every drug….and drug usage and overdoses dropped in record numbers.

PUTIN ALLIES TELL MACRON: ANY FRENCH TROOPS YOU SEND TO UKRAINE WILL SUFFER FATE OF NAPOLEON’S ARMY…..Yeah Emmanuel,…..I think you better heed that warning…..anyone one who’s tried to invade Russia got their butts kicked…..just ask Germany…..shoot, ask Genghis Khan…..dude damn near captured the world….but even he said “Hell no”…..to Russia.

FIRST EVER FOOTAGE OF HUMBACK WHALES HAVING SEX RAISES SOME AWKWARD QUESTIONS…..Yeah, like….why are you watching whale porn?…..and I found this….anyone ever heard of…..

DICK HYLAND AND RAY CAMPBELL?….No?….they fought a boxing match in 1913….which lasted 110 rounds, 7 hours and 19 minutes (9:15pm to 4:34 am)….and was declared a no contest….which was later changed to a draw….this longest fight in history captured the attention and admiration of boxing enthusiasts worldwide…..with its unprecedented display of endurance and determination……this battle of wills tested the physical and mental limits of both fighters…..the sheer craziness and unbelievable stamina exhibited during the match left spectators in awe, with some even succumbing to sleep from the sheer exhaustion of witnessing such a remarkable display of sportsmanship…..this extraordinary event will undoubtedly live on in the book of boxing history…..Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney’s fight in 1926….was the largest paid attendance at that time…..with over 120,557 boxing fans coming to watch the fight….the final gate came close to 2 million dollars.

FAMILY GUN MASSACRE LEAVES FOUR DEAD AS SOLDIER SHOOTS EX-GIRLFRIEND, HER CHILDREN, HER NEW BOYFRIEND ANS HIS MOTHER IN GERMANY….And who said mass shootings only occur in America?…..this guy had a lot of ammo and explosives in his car….and the cops are searching army barracks to find out how he obtained them….he busted into her house early in the morning in Scheeßel…a town she lived in near Rotenburg….no one knows why he carried out this awful crime….but early in the morning….he walked into a police station and turned himself in…..and on the same day…..there was another shooting in a town called Bothel…..which is eight miles away…..this was also carried out by a Bundeswehr soldier and the police have yet to confirm whether it was the same guy…..or someone else.
