rockpile Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I have problems detecting sarcasm, could you please let me know if you are being sarcastic or not? You are required to do so under section 10.4 of the American with Disabilities Act. 287424[/snapback] I was asking a question, to get people thinking. Now, Maundy Thursday makes sense. Don't believe me, google it (GG needs the nickels anyway). But "good" Friday makes no sense to me since it is said to be the day one of history's greatest prophets was nailed to a cross and killed.

aussiew Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Perhaps it was "Goodbye Friday" and the name was shortened at Ellis Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 It is named Good Friday because it was a year ago on this day that my wife found out she was pregnant. Which is why if you click on my screen name, you can see what's so good about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpile Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 You hold your age well. 287468[/snapback] OK, truth be told, it was my great-grandfather Anders Johann Bengtsen who got screwed on the name. They changed it to Andrew John Benson. He signed his naturalization papers with an "x". Not that there is anything wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
