Summer Solstice & Winter Solstice: The First Day Of Winter & First Day Of Summer Explained

| Comments (0)

sand-and-sunshine-by-filou.jpg We usually think of summer as that time between Memorial Day at the end of May and Labor Day in the beginning of September.  Officially, that's not really the case though.

Meteorological summer runs from June 1st through August 31st -- typically the hottest 3-month period of the year.  Traditionally, however, we use the astronomical definition of our seasons. 

So here's more about "the first day of summer"... and for that matter, "the first day of winter".  We'll try to make sense of what's going on during summer solstice and winter solstice.


 

"Mr. 80 SPF Sunblock Wearer" & Little-Known Facts About Sunscreen

| Comments (2)

Inspired by the Bud Light Real Men of Genius commercial, "Mr. SPF 80 Wearer", following is a collection of little-known facts about SPF, plus some humorous links for over-the-top sunblock wearers.


First, the lyrics:

Today we salute you
Mr. 80 SPF Sunblock Wearer
(mr. 80 SPF sunblock wearer)
There are 24 hours in a day
You're wearing 80 hour protection
If the sun fails to go down...
You'll be ready.
(don't forget the moonlight)



Your coconut-scented force field
blocks out all the sun's rays
and any stray rays
from another sun
in another galaxy.
(you're a star)



30 SPF?
Please...
you might as well be wearing cooking oil
(something smells delicious)



So crack open an ice cold Bud Light
Mr. 80 SPF Sunblock Wearer
In fact, feel free to crack one open at high noon
In the middle of the Sahara Desert
(mr. 80 SPF sunblock wearer)
