Pts, smarty pants, when's your birthday?

Go ahead, shout out the date.

I'm guessing you all got it right, but that's an easy question.

The hard question is this.

Tell me your birthday without naming the month.

Huh?

For example, how many days is your birthday from the start of the year?

75, 246, 338?

Not so simple now, is it?

Unless you were born in January.

Try this.

You know how many years old you are,

but how many days have gone by since you were born? Yeah, it's hard to

imagine living without months or years, but ancient humans did just that, until they figured out

the best way to group days together. Of course, first they had to figure out days, which wasn't too complicated.

Sun goes up.

Sun goes down.

That's a day.

But what about the rest?

Why do we have seven-day weeks?

And months that vary from 28 days to 31 days.

Where do the names of the month come from?
