April Fools Day

Since at least the seventeenth century this day has been celebrated with practical jokes and spurious news. Mark Twain commented in his Pudd’n Head Wilson’s Calendar, "This is the one day upon which we are reminded of what we actually are on the other three hundred and sixty-four."

  1. The greatest April Fool of all is my dad!! He is 72 today and I have never known him to be foolish at all ever even though I guess theologically speaking he qualifies.
    Not having a blog I needed to say that somewhere today :)
