I get to spend the afternoon dissecting pig hearts. You better believe it's Monday.

But unless we're all secretly posting from Japan (and even with it being Monday, I'm pretty sure I'm not), who cares what Ogged-time is?

We mustn't preclude the possibility that Monday ogged decided to travel in his time machine to today in order to post this article at a more appropriate moment.

Or, less likely, that it happened to him yesterday and he just thought to blog about it now.

Another possibility is that he wrote this post on any Monday of any week and then timed its posting for today. Cf. This post.

Back when I worked for AT&T I called for some free technical publication. The drone asked

"Place of employment?"

AT&T.

"How do you spell that?"

Ummmm

My grandmother called her lawyer's office once. Her father-in law had been one of the founding partners of the firm, and his name (her last name too) was still first on the letter head. The receptionist still asked her how she spelled her name.
