Mom screens adult daughter’s dates
Q: I’m an independent thirty-something woman. But my mom still insists it’s her prerogative and responsibility as a parent to screen the men in my life. I’ve been interacting with a so-far-so-good guy online who’s finally coming to visit from out of town. But my mother says she needs a few hours with him so that she can “interview” him and tell him about me. This can’t be appropriate! 04/05/2022 12:00 AM

Recordkeeping: No April Fools lifeskill pranks here
Ever wonder where April Fools’ Day got started? Well, according to the History Channel, some historians say it dates to 1582. That’s the year when “… France switched from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar, as called for by the Council of Trent in 1563. In the Julian Calendar, as in the Hindu calendar, the new year began with the spring equinox around April 1. People who were slow to get the news or failed to recognize that the start of the new year had moved to January 1 and continued to celebrate it during the last week of March through April 1 became the butt of jokes and hoaxes and were called ‘April fools.’” 04/01/2022 12:00 AM
