Anyway, when the Romans came along and they brought Christianity, they moved the first day of spring to March 21st when the daylight and night were equal (the equinox) to coincide with Easter (which is the first full moon AFTER the 21st). Anyone who still celebrated on April 1st was a 'fool' and therefore open to pranking because if they were gullible enough to follow some old-fashioned religion, then they were gullible enough to fall for the ol' salt in the sugar-bowl trick (or the medieval equivalent).
And there you have it. Yet another 'holiday tradition' brought to you by invasion.

The Wolf is drawing for the three big Cabela's g/c's today: first person gets a $50 card, second name gets $200, and the lucky third person gets $500!
Coast has a new poll out and I think trivia too (I know I answered a question the other day, but now it's not showing...).

announce a Lucky Canuck. Go online and enter the name and if you're

The Elantra contest is still on! Enter HERE to get your name in ASAP. They'll call a qualifier's name at 7:10, 8:10, 12:10 and 4:10 (I'll do my best to listen and then Tweet & Facebook the name) until April 8th, and that person has about 30 minutes to call back to be in the draw for a 2016 Elantra, $1000 gas and first year's insurance!
Keep your ears peeled for this station - they don't always advertise their contests, but when I hear, I'll post.
