free2ryhme: This is to officially welcome (you all) to year 2014!

SpencerLewis:
Stop this new yr stuff. Is just matter of calender adjustment. The present calender we are using now (Gregorian calender) was introduced in 1582 and not every country of the world uses it. Some their new yr is march 25th, others april fool day etc. This was designed so dat Govts around the world will know when to collect their taxes from the pple.

MAYOWAAK: If we didn't follow the Gregorian Calendar, yesterday, today or any other day could have been regarded as a New Year Day. To me, every day one wakes up alive and healthy is worthy of praising well deserving of our celebration.

[b]KNOW THE FACTS.
Here is an interesting historical fact. Just have a look at the calendar for the month of September, 1752. Go to Google and type " September 1752 calendar" and see for yourself. You will notice 11 days are simply missing from the month.
Here's the explanation: This was the month during which England shifted from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar. A Julian year was 11 days longer than a Gregorian year. So, the King of England ordered 11 days to be wiped off the face of that particular month. So, the workers worked for 11 days less that month but got paid for the whole month. That's how the concept of "paid leave" was born. Hail the King!!!
In the Roman Julian Calendar, April used to be the first month of the year, but the Gregorian Calendar observed January as the first month. Even after shifting to the Gregorian Calendar, many people refused to give up old traditions and continued celebrating 1st April as the New Year's Day. When simple orders didn't work, the King finally issued a royal dictum which stated that those who celebrated 1st April as the New Year's Day would be labelled as fools. From then on 1st April became April Fool's Day.
History is really interesting, isn't it?[/b]
