The Ides of April

Yep, today, the 13th of April, is the Ides of April.  Trust me.  I just got quite the lecture from my classically homeschooled son about the reasons.  I also think the author of the book I just assigned to him entitled Ides of April  should have done a little more research as to the meaning of Ides before naming the book and assuming (like me) that the Ides is always on the 15th.  I am trying to give that child a good education, and he, in turn, is giving one back to me.  I guess that's good.  Should I have him write a letter to the author?
