FFFFFriends of riends of riends of riends of riends of DORDORDORDORDOROOOOOTHYTHYTHYTHYTHY Metra's calendar of EVENTS, that lets you know where all the HOT spots are!

By: AuntieM4Dor AuntieM4Dor AuntieM4Dor AuntieM4Dor [email protected]@[email protected]@[email protected]

drink alcoholic beverages and watch or light fireworks to mark the New Year. The cel-ebrations generally go on past midnight into January 1st (oh crap! Nobody told me you hadto stop on the 1st) The Romans dedicated New Year’s Day to Janus, the god of gates, doorsand beginnings for whom the first day of the year (January) is also named. After JuliusCaesar reformed the calendar in 42 BC and was subsequently murdered for it, The RomeSenate voted to deity (it means to make him a god) him on the 1st January 46 BC in honorof his life and the institution of the new rationalized calendar. Bla Bla Bla enough of thehistory lesson! OK folks I’m letting you know right now that whenever you see NYE orNYD that will mean New Years Eve or New Years Day.
