Can't build from master : invalid date in front matter?

[morgantaschuk]

I can't build from a fresh checkout in master, commit bd08fb2.

I'm running jekyll 3.8.4, ruby 2.3.1p112 (2016-04-26) [x86_64-linux-gnu], Bundler version 1.16.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS.

git clone git@github.com:mmistakes/skinny-bones-jekyll.git
cd skinny-bones-jekyll/
bundle install --path vendor/bundle
bundle exec jekyll build --verbose

And the error

Ah, I just realized that of course it's because I'm directing my bundle install to ./vendor. However, because it's what bundler recommends, I would suggest excluding it from _config.yml. I'll make a PR shortly.
