IDK Billy Boy

Beware the ides of March he says. Well maybe in your lifetime Billy, but in my life I beware the ides of April more. Today is a day to be wary. Happy 420 all! And an unhappy anniversary of so much more. I have always heard 420 is the day it is because 420 is the police code for marijuana possession. But we must take the good with the bad I’m afraid so here’s a little list of what to remember to forget about today.

  • April 20, 1792 France declares war on Austria beginning the French Revolutionary War.
  • April 20, 1889 Adolf Hitler is born.
  • April 20, 1961 A debacle knowns as the Bay of Pigs takes place.
  • April 20, 1997 An inferno begins in Grand Forks Minnesota as a result of massive flooding.
  • April 20, 1999 12 students and a teacher are massacred at Columbine High School in Littleton, CO.
  • April 20, 1999 The largest single bombing by the US of Kosovo in the Kosovo War.
  • April 16, 2007 The single largest mass murder in US history takes place at Virginia Tech.
  • April 15, Always:Tax Day
  • Do me favor, enjoy your holiday and forget what you’ve seen here today, but remember to be careful. And to smoke with a special friend today.

    HAPPY 420!!!

  1. thats alot of bad stuff….

  2. it is. but its probably like numerology. i’m sure you could find a thousand disaster’s for every month. i just find it coincidental that the ides of april seem more perilous for a modern american than any other time.

  3. french revolution notwithstanding
