1. It’s March—Happy New Year, ancient Romans! Welcome to the
third month of the year—or, if you were born before 150 B.C., the first!
According to the oldest Roman calendars, one year was ten months
long, beginning in March and ending in December. It may sound crazy,
but you can still see traces of this old system in our modern calendar:
because December was the tenth month, it was named for the number
ten in Latin (decem), just like September was named for seven
(septem).
2. March 14: Pi Day celebrates the annual occurrence of 3/14 with
math jokes, pi-reciting competitions, and (of course) freshly baked pie.
3. March 17: St. Patrick’s Day turns the Chicago River green, and too
many livers cirrhosis-damage-brown. And on this day in 1973, Pink
Floyd’s “Dark Side of The Moon” first hits the Billboard Top 200 chart
at number 95. A mere 14 years later (736 chart weeks, to be exact) it
finally leaves the top 200 for the first time, setting a still-unbroken
world record.
4. March 20: The sun shines on the equator for the Vernal Equinox,
giving us a near 50-50 split of day and night.
5. March 21: The 10th anniversary Twitter founder Jack Dorsey
inaugurating the social media site with its profound first tweet: “just
setting up my twttr”
Saint Patrick’s Day History: It is the Irish feast day that celebrates
Saint Patrick (386-461), the patron saint of Ireland. It is a legal holiday in
the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, the overseas territory of
Montserrat and the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It
is celebrated worldwide by the Irish and those of Irish descent (and
increasingly by many of non-Irish descent). A major parade takes place in
Dublin and in most other Irish towns and villages. The four largest
parades of recent years have been held in Dublin, New York City,
Manchester, and Savannah. Parades also take place in other places,
including London, Paris, Rome, Munich, Moscow, Beijing, Hong Kong,
Singapore, Copenhagen and throughout the Americas.
