You said right!
*impatience* spoil the curry being half cooked; and *laziness* BURNS the curry up while we all think 'where is the need, to eat and/or taste while the mouth has lost taste buds.
So is the decision to defer METRICATION in US. Time & Calendar can be on theshelf!

*****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!
And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule! ***** ***** ***** *****

There are two cardinal sins, from which all the others spring: impatience and laziness.
