God Bless America

A funny little conversation that was had on a recent Qantas flight from Auckland (that's in New Zealand not Australia - if the Americans in the room are asking).

Flight Attdnt:  "How was your holiday?"

Passenger:  "I loved everything about Australia, fantastic!  But I wanted to bring some souvenirs home for everyone and was about to buy a bunch of calendars with different pictures of Australia every month.  Thank god I realized you guys are a day ahead of us so the calendars would be on the wrong day."

I guess Thursday, October 9 in the eastern hemisphere isn't Thursday in the western hemisphere.  Does that mean I get another day to remember birthdays and anniversaries?
