>>Ridiculous! This group has no standing to sue anybody for cracking an

>>A bas any blue-nosed prigs who object to April Fool jokes on the grounds
>>of "pagan origins". These are the same kinds of killjoys who forbid their
>>children the fun of celebrating Hallowe'en because of its "pagan origins".
>>Most of them, I notice, do not hesitate to put up Christmas trees or color
>>Easter eggs, although the origins of those customs is every bit as
>>"pagan". They also give flowers and candy and cards to their sweethearts
>>on St. Valentine's Day, even though that custom goes back to the Roman
>>holiday of Lupercalia (yes, "pagan"). And those who are American see
>>nothing wrong in celebrating Thanksgiving Day, which derives from a Native
>>American (hence originally "pagan") harvest festival.

>>It is with the greatest of pleasure that I declare my intention to ignore
>>these silly people and to urge others to do the same. In fact, I think
>>I'll send them a copy of this email.

>>OR IS THE SUPPOSED EXISTENCE OF THIS GROUP ANOTHER APRIL FOOL'S JOKE????
>>If so, the joke is on me, and I'm the one who's being blue-nosed!!!
>>Somebody tell me if this is the case so I can laugh at myself - nothing
