Apparently, we are getting an extra second this year!
'A leap second' because the earth's spin on it's axis is slowing down.

Does that mean I'm a second older or younger than I think I am?

I will use mine to put an extra dollop of wrinkle cream on my face

Probably nothing, which is what I do with the other seconds of my life!

An extra second?

Make a wish! Say a little prayer!

I will use my extra second to practice my Erin Boag smile, then I will be able to spend all of 2009 hearing comments like "has she had her teeth done", or "she looks different to me".

I have no immediate use for that extra second,
so I shall prudently save it in my account at the Icelandic Bank.

Choreographers, be sure to build in an extra step when that second occurs in tonight's dance at midnight, otherwise the dancers would be out of time and lose the four 10s.
