April Fool's Day  - Although April Fool's Day is celebrated by many people for many centuries, knowing exactly how it started is still yet to be discovered. Some historians think that it started because of France switching calanders in 1582, as called for by the Council of Trent in 1563. The people that didn't know or were slow to figure out that the new year had been moved to January 1, instead of the last week of March through April 1, were then considered "April Fool's" and got jokes played on them. One of the many jokes included putting paper fish on their backs and then being referred to as "poisson d'avril" meaning "April fish".  media type="custom" key="4886065" width="150" height="150"
