The problem is when he goes to his friend’s birthday parties (and there have been many lately) and he has cake or cupcakes. She would like to start bringing her own dessert for him to these parties so he doesn’t have the sugar, but Greg thinks it’s humiliating to their son. What do you think? (37:05)

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Man stranded at sea for almost a month survives on one food item

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Man stranded at sea for almost a month survives on one food item

It’s scary enough to be stranded at sea on a boat. Now imagine being stranded with no food except one bottle of ketchup.

That’s exactly what happened back in December to this sailor named Elvis Francois who was stranded for 24 days until the Columbian Navy rescued him. Elvis says he only had some seasoning packets, a little garlic powder, and a bottle of Heinz ketchup. That’s what he was able to survive on.

Now that Heinz has heard about his story they want to help and support Elvis and his family. Including buying him a brand new boat!

I’m guessing he’s sick of ketchup… but a lifetime supply would nice too.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why is February shorter than all the other months?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why is February shorter than all the other months?

Welcome to the last day of February Snow Storm! The 28th. The shortest month of the year. But why is February shorter than every other month?

It all goes way back to Roman superstitions. A Roman king named Numa wanted the calendar to match the lunar year so part of that was to make every month have 29 days. In those times ever numbers were bad luck, hilariously. But he needed one of the months to have an even number so it would all work out so he decided to shorten February to 28. February was a month that Romans would recognize the dead so they figured that would be okay to make it unlucky with the even number

Now, the calendar as we know it has changed many times since then. Yet no one has ever changed February from 28 days. Weird!

He has four months left on the lease and just wants to finish the term so he can move on. He does have a separate room from his ex. Hazel says it’s uncomfortable and she wants him to just pay his four-month portion of the rent and move out. He says that’s a waste of money and it’s only four months left. What do you think? She lives at home, so moving in together is not an option.  (36:20)
