A good cartoon but a month late? What gives?

Well, the strip is dated Sept 25, so it’s a couple of weeks late. Looking at the dates on a number of the September strips, they seem to be all jumbled up.

I was going to say “Shazbot!” but that would need a nanoo-nanoo year.

September is the end of the year; April is the start. The Ancients had it right.

Growing up 12/31 as New year’s eve always confused me. I am Jewish (Reform) and the Jewish year starts in Sept or rarely, Oct. School starts then. The new cars used to come out then. The new TV shows came out then. I thought Sept was the start of the year.
As to pcolli – that makes a 6 month year? I know that before the change to the “new style” calender, the year numbering changed in mid March.

@mafastore
As far as I’m concerned, October to the End of March do not exist.
