Probably, maybe...

This seems to be a standard Americanism, which causes much confusion.
Equally stupid is "biweeky" -- depending on context this can be either
once every 2 weeks, or twice a week.
The Brits have the useful "fortnight" to disambiguate this...

How about "The Monday which is 2016-10-31" ? :-)

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
