    Be glad you’re not disputing with an ancient Roman. In Latin grammar
    Monday is five days before Friday. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday—five days, see?

    Look at the Roman calendar of months. Or don't, if mental
    arithmetic gives you headaches.

    So you would object to "Swine behind Pearls"?
