Subject: Re: Thursday week



I wasn't born yesterday, just way up north, which may account for my total

bewilderment at "Monday week" phrases. When I saw the original post, I

thought that there was some reference to Maundy Thursday in "Thursday

Week," given the time of the year. I was able to understand Rudy's

"I saw him Wednesday two weeks ago," but can only produce "I saw him

two weeks ago Wednesday." "Come Wednesday" is fine for the future only.



This is probably biologically determined by grits or maple syrup.
