March and October, the months most important to Mars, and May and July. Likewise, the nones fell on either the 5th or the 7th, but the Kalends were always on the 1st.

...the introduction to "get set, go!" shouldn't be "Marx". [see six or so messages above]

What about

"E, get set, go! "


Nicht wahr?

I don't understand the E one but I do the Marx one. Not that that means anything.

Never mind. I finally "got" it.
