Here's an excerpt from The Tao of Pooh:
{Rabbit} ... you can't help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn't spell it right; but spelling isn't everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count.
{Owl} By the way, Pooh, how do you spell Tuesday?
{Pooh} Spell what?
{Guy} Tuesday. You know - Monday, Tuesday ...
{Owl} My dear Pooh, everybody knows that it's spelled with a Two.
{Pooh} Is it?
{Owl} Of course. After all, it's the second day of the week.
{Pooh} Oh, is that the way it works?
{Guy} All right, Owl. Then what comes after Twosday?
{Owl} Thirdsday.
{Guy} You're just confusing thingss. This is the day after Tuesday, and it's not Thirds - I mean, Thursday.
{Owl} Then what is it?
{Piglet} It's Today!
{Pooh} My favorite day.
