No, but Wikipedia does: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_week[^] For English, most of the days are named after Norse gods:

Monday

Moon's day;

Tuesday

Tiw's day - a one-handed Norse god associated with single combat and pledges;

Wednesday

Wodan's day (aka Odin);

Thursday

Thor's day;

Friday

Frige's day;

Saturday

Saturn's day - the only day which retains it's Roman name in English;

Sunday

Sun's day;

Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

I don't get the point you are trying to make here. For me this post and your different replies just seem to be some kind of odd spam. Are you trying to up your reputation by posting some trivial questions?

It was a spelling issue which now is resolved.

OK I see now :) Thanks for your clarification.

No; I was just reacting at the reading of the post.

If someone told you that, I guess it was on satire's day. ;P
