April Fool's Day Quotes & Trivia
April 1. This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other three hundred and sixty-four. - Mark Twain
Isn't it appropriate that the month of the tax begins with April Fool's Day and ends with cries of "May Day!"? - Author Unknown
Here cometh April again, and as far as I can see the world hath more fools in it than ever. - Charles Lamb
Many trace the origins of April Fools' Day back to 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII adopted the Gregorian Calendar, effectively moving New Year's Day from the end of March to 1 January.
Though the change was widely publicized, some people didn't get the memo, while others simply didn't want to transition to the new calendar, so they continued to ring in the New Year at the end of March. Those who didn't make the change were mocked for their folly and called "April Fools".

Happy May Day!
May Day was once a holiday in the U.S., but after being selected as the date for International Workers' Day, it fell out of favor until 2012 when it was chosen as a holiday and for demonstrations by the Occupy movement.
Personally, I prefer how Hawaii celebrates May 1, with Lei Day. I really wish I was in Hawaii right now and getting lei'd.

I Should Be a Fat Irishman
You Should Eat Irish Food |
You are a seeker and sharer of comfort. You want everyone to feel content and happy, including yourself. You tend to be both a mediator and peacemaker. You don't anyone to feel excluded or alienated. You are social, but only when it comes to the people you've grown close to. You like to surround yourself with the people you love. A great day doesn't have to be special for you. Doing ordinary things is very affirming. |
