Posted:     Post subject: APRIL FOOLS DAY!!

There are several explanations for the origin of the April fool's Day. But here is the most plausible one. April 1st was once New Year's Day in France. In 1582 Pope Gregory declared the adoption of his Gregorian calendar to replace the Julian calendar and new year's day was officially chance to January. First it took awhile for everyone in France to head the new of this major change and other obstinately refused to accept the new calendar so a lot of people continued to celebrate new year's day on the first of the April earning them the name April fools.

The April fools were subjected to ridicule and practical jokes and the tradition was born. The butts of these pranks to ridicule and practical jokes and tradition were born. The butts of these pranks were first called Poisson d'avril of April fish because a young naive fish is easily caught. A common proactive was to hook a paper fish on the back of someone as a joke. This evolved overtime and a custom of prank-playing continues on the first day of April. So in this way this whole story originated and evolved. Now every year people celebrate it as a tradition.

Of course my little girl put on my back a paper fish because she's too young to realize how ridiculous it is to stuck a small paper fish on a "hudge whale" ha ! ha !
