Whoops, I got that definition of a blue moon wrong. Can’t have 3 in a month. Meant to say “2nd”

Yep, and apparently some almanac just made it up in the 30s.

Isn’t pretty much everything from almanacs just made up? My religious parents used to swear by the farmer’s almanac. Then whenever it was wrong, they were like, “it’s not always right, but it usually is”
