I probably should be holding off on this announcement until tomorrow, but I just can’t. I love this one, because even if it wasn’t a National holiday, someone would be doing it anyway. It happens everyday you know.
So, what is it? Tomorrow, April 13, is not only Friday the 13th, but it is also, “National Blame Someone Else” day.
It wasn’t me. Not me man. I don’t know anything about it. What are you looking at me for, look at him! I don’t even have a key to that thing, why would you think it was me? My job doesn’t even take me near that process. I never forget to close the freezer door. Soda spilled on the living room floor? I never drink soda. I always put the toilet seat down. Oh, he must have forgot to put the check in the mail. What do you mean paddle harder, YOU were the one who forgot to put the plug in the boat! Don’t blame me for you not having enough gas to get to work. I had the car back before midnight, you could have gotten out of bed and gone and got some. It’s those guys at Westinghouse building these danged things. I set the timer to turn the oven off after 50 minutes. The neighbor kids must have snuck into the yard and turned it on after I washed the car. What? I don’t even know her name! You know if it was me I would have called you first thing this morning.
Yup! Blame someone else today and don’t think a second thought about it.
Oh. And some on the web say that this holiday really falls on the first Friday the 13th of the year. THEY ARE WRONG!
