It is a beautiful warm day today. The first truly warm day of the year. If any one was to celebrate a new year in Chicago, this would be it. Did you know that April 1 was the real new year in the Western Calendar until 1564? That year, the French King Charles IX decided to change it to January 1? The entire concept of the April 1 joke was built on the fact that Charles IX used to continuously make jokes about people around him who saw April 1 as the real New Years. People who still accepted as the New Year were teased continuously and called the “April Fish”.
To all people out there who celebrate a brand new year in the middle of miserable cold weather, please rethink who the real joke is being played on. It is being played on All the King’s subjects that obeyed his silly law for the last 446 years. Long live King Charles IX!!!!!!! The people on earth are still the sheep that fall for your April 1 jokes. Lesson learned: Perceived reality becomes the only reality if you tease/supress people long enough.
