Which is why the helpful folks at EFF have posted some simple instructions showing how to delete your web history at Google."

    Next thursday is March 1, not tomorrow. New policy goes into effect NEXT thursday, not tomorrow.

    Not according to the definitions in any dictionary I have at hand. E.g.: Dictionary.com:

    adjective: 1. immediately following in time, order, importance, etc.: the next day; the next person in line.

    Tomorrow is the Thursday immediately following in time. I cannot find any dictionary carrying the definition you are using.

    Nonetheless - I am familiar with the idiom, based on the usage I have heard I suspect it is endemic to the American South - and its illogicality annoys the heck out of me. Is the house next door the one you reach after a passing the house immediately adjacent to yours?
