It's the First of the Month!!

Why is there such thing called April Fools'? I took the time to look it up and this is what I found...
April Fools' Day is celebrated in different countries around the world on the April 1 of every year. Sometimes referred to as All Fools' Day, April 1 is not a national holiday, but is widely recognized and celebrated as a day where many people play all kinds of jokes and foolishness. The day is marked by the commission of good humoured or funny jokes, hoaxes, and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friends, family members, teachers, neighbors, work associates, etc. The earliest recorded association between April 1 and foolishness can be found in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales (1392). Many writers suggest that the restoration of January 1 as New Year's Day in the 16th century was responsible for the creation of the holiday, but this theory does not explain earlier references.(To continue reading follow this link April 1st) Ok so that really didn't give me the meaning of this day! Oh well I'll just continue playing pranks, jokes, etc...
On another note, it's Friday!!!! Happy Friday Friends, enjoy your weekend!!!
