Fun Fact: The citizens of Crustwood, Illinois, voted in 1987 to move the official celebration of New Year’s Day to the Saturday before Tax Day.
The reasoning behind this measure, according to local records, is that on December 31st, they are not willing to give up the current year, having not yet squeezed out all the days they paid for in the prior April.
This year, therefore, it is 2012 in Crustwood until Midnight, April 12, when it will be Crustwood New Year’s Day, April 13th, 2013.
(New Year’s Eve, happily, is thus always on a Friday night.)In the spirit of the holiday, Burl, Joy and Ma are now making their Crustwood New Year’s resolutions.
Just in case you wondered.
P.S. It is considered very bad form to go dredging the archives in order to refute this information.Just thank me and move on.
