Is there a blue moon out tonite?

B & C

There must be a blue moon out tonight, because it is only just past 11 pm and I am at the top of the online members list. Makes you think I lead a real exciting life doesn't it. :unsure:

Can't be a Blue Moon: they are only seen on the last days of any month (Second full moon of any calendar month is a Blue Moon.)

Bux, I didn't think that it was a blue moon. I was just commenting that it was a really rare event for me to be at the top of the on-line list.

If you want to get technical about it the real definition of a Blue moon is the third full moon in a season where there will be four full moons. So there could be two Full Moons in March, but the Blue Moon would be in May if the 2nd full moon in March occurred after the Spring Equinox.

Your definition was a mis-interpretation that was reportedly corrected in 1999.

However they do fall at the end of the month.

2018 we will have a Black Moon and TWO Blue Moons.

Could this be more Hyperbole??

Hey I am a WOLF. We know moons!!!

There are 12 Blue Moons in my fridge downstairs. That number will likely decrease after I build a nice roaring fire in the fireplace.

I figured that's what you meant. I was trying to show how smart I am. Turns out not very smart. Thanks, Wolf, for letting me know what a Blue Moon really is. (And my wife thinks I'm just wasting my time on the computer. I tell her I learn something every day.)

I knew you wouldn't believe unless I produced references to my assertions.

Google and Wiki are much faster than the Encyclopedia reading I used to do.. So what!!
