There are 365 days in 2007. Because 365 divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 1, it means the last day of 2007 will also be a Monday.
2008 will start on a Tuesday, but because it is a leap year (366 days), it will end on a *Wednesday*.
Finally 2009, will start on a Thursday. There are an equal number of days in all the weeks, but you will have an additional Thursday again on the last day of 2009.
The answer is Thursday will occur 53 times in 2009, while all the other days of the week will occur 52 times.

January 1st 2009 will fall on a Thursday (not Wednesday, because of the 2008 leap year)
There will be one more Thursday than any other day of the year.
