Today is actually March 32, not the first of April. This is a leap year, but unfortunately everybody missed it, which happens more often than one might think. So instead of having 29 days in February, to make up for the extra day this yerar we're have 32 in March. Tomorrow, not today, will be April 1. It will be necessary to purchase a new calendar for the rest of the year. If your computer hasn't automatically changed the date, it may be necessary to do it manually. You may need a hammer and a pry bar.

Word of the Every So Often​
aerophobia: (noun) not just the fear of flying, which is perfectly normal, but the extreme fear of flying, to the point where you want nothing to do with planes, though, once again, that can also be perfectly normal. Aerophobia to Xenophobia, there’s a fear for everyone.
The Daily Holiday
​
It’s April Fool’s Day! It’s also St. Stupid Day. This is a holiday (the latter, not the former) that is celebrated primarily in San Francisco, but that shouldn’t stop anybody. You can have a parade no matter where you are! St. Stupid day was first celebrated in 1979 by Bishop Joey, founder of the First Church of the Last Laugh. It’s an attempt to unite people through humour, taking notice of the absurdity of… well… everything. Or, as Pogo Possum once so wisely said, “Don’t take life too seriously. It ain’t no how forever.”

The B Word
It was the B word that I heard word,
but not the B word that is heard with the G word
or the C word, but with the P word,
and sometimes the T word.
Though the D word and the E word
are just as bad as the Z word,
at least they’re not the V word,
or the worst of them all, the B word.
Never say the A word or the K word,
especially with the J word.
But it wasn’t the A or the J or the K word
that I heard word.
It was the B word.
We all know the F word and the N word,
and that the Q word could also be the U word.
And the M word and the N word
are so verily sin words,
should they ever be heard words.
And the S word and the X word
only needs the E word
to be the H word to pay word,
much less to say word.
And that leaves the R words and the L words,
the W words and the O words words words!
But at least they’re not the B word,
can’t you C word?
And through it all the I words
are wondering Y words
ever become so absurd.
