whoops. Ewan McGregor turned down the role to play Neo before Smith. Val
Kilmer turned down the role of Morpheus.
The role of Seraph was written exclusively for Jet Li. Once Li declined the
role, the character was re-written for a female role offered to Michelle
Yeoh. She later declined the role due to scheduling conflicts.
According to the records Smith throws on the table in the first movie,
Thomas Anderson's birthdate was March 11, 1962 (does 3/11/1962 mean
anything?). Could this have possibly been an original airing date of The
Prisoner, or some other particular television program? Well, it isn't The
Prisoner, but something must have happened in 1962. Probably coincidence,
but that was the day Jackie Kennedy visited Pope John XXIII (hmm, 23!) in
the Vatican.

Depends on which Calendar you're looking at some use Sunday as day 1
perhaps the majority do others use Monday.
Saturday is the sabbath for Jews no? And Christians choose Sunday I
believe. 6 of 1 half a dozen of the other.

I don't know what you mean by "Official" I am not aware of a governing
board for Calendars. Outlook for example uses Monday as day 1. It's
common for Christians to use Sunday as the Sabbath hence the 7th day.

When I define a week, I define it as Monday through Sunday. There is a
reason why Saturday and Sunday together are known as the "weekend".

In a way, you're probably right. After all, when Saturday morning hits,
we're not trying to finish up the work for the end of the week; we're trying
to party! On Sunday night, though, we're already starting to focus on the
next week's work. But when does the week begin? WHO CARES?

I guess the real question is... on which day of the week does God rest? If
that's actually Saturday, then all those jokes about praying to him on his
day off are debunked.
