    *yawn* ... You crazy Englishmen.

    Ok, so I looked at my calendar and I discovered that you Englishpeople have translated the easter-friday to "Good Friday". What's up with that? You know that's when Jesus died, eh? So you consider this day to be good? Here in Norway, we call this day "Long Friday". Sounds more appropiate imho.

    What's your excuse? This better be good. :rolleyes2

    Well, It's better than 'Easter Friday'. We already have two 'Easter XXXX' days.

    Are you implying that Easter isn't good?

    It's always been Good Friday to me. Never really knew what it was about. But maybe it's good because it's a holiday?!
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    It's Good Friday here in the states, too.

    Here's your excuse:
    In Early Modern English, good had a meaning of "holy". A "good tide" is, for example, Christmas or Shrove Tuesday.

    Up until now, I thought it was for the resurrection of Christ.

    To me, Easter is just another excuse for a long weekend. I think chocolate is factored in there somewhere too.

    I'm not religious, so Easter for me is all about the Cadbury's Creme Eggs.
