Today is April Fool's Day, the day where you might say it's "politically" correct to pull a prank on a buddy. In some cases, people might go a little overboard i.e.:
"Mom, I'm Pregnant"
"But you're only fifteen!" *has heart attack*
(Pause for reaction)
But hey, It's April Fool's Day!
However, our friends at Google never fail to impress.
That's right! Today is St. Patrick's Day! If you're getting ready to hit the Irish Pubs tonight, here is a little ammo for when the cops pull you over... Tell them these easy to remember, fun facts and they'll let you off the hook...If you're lucky ;)
The very first St. Patrick's Day parade was not in Ireland. It was in Boston in 1737.
In Chicago, on St. Patrick's Day, the rivers are dyed green.
Many people wear green on this holiday to avoid being pinched. The actual color of St. Patrick is blue.
Legend says that each leaf of the clover means something: the first is for hope, the second for faith, the third for love and the fourth for luck.
As my good friend, Rose debates, in Irish beliefs, St. Patrick carried around a 3-leaf clover. It represented the Holy Trinity and the 3 phases of the moon.
