Spurious Daylight Savings Time

We know Benjamin Franklin didn’t invent Daylight Savings Time. 

According to our Spurious History Department, 

When Parisians learned Franklin’s essay,

“An Economical Project” was chiding them for sleeping in 

they donned clock masks and marched around his home at sunrise!

A Spurious Nib Halloween

In 1899 Billy Flanagan wrapped his sister Mary like a mummy 

and charged people 2 cents each to hear him delivery his scary Halloween soliloquy, “To The Mummy.”

You may not know that Martin Luther’s 95 Thesis was posted on the equivalence of a bulletin board.

You might be interested in some spurious history in that one week later the 95 Thesis were replaced by an ad from Nun Katharina von Bora , “For sale: one used rosary, Available at the Cistercian monastery of Marienthron in Nimbschen.”

On this date in 1756, Josefus Paczko was voted

“The Gosh, Darn, Nicest Werewolf in all of Slovakia!”
