The story of cards and how they came to be

[MichaelVitelli]

because there are so many new members every couple of weeks i post this every couple of weeks so if it sounds familiar then you prob read it here a couple weeks ago.

the standard deck of playing cards is our calendar. there are 52 cards and 52 weeks in a year. there are 4 suits and there are 4 seasons. there are 13 weeks in a season and 13 cards in a suit. there are 12 face cards and there are 12 months in a year. and it is rumoured that on a standard deack on the back of each card there are 365 tiny little diamonds and on the back of the ace of spades there are 366 tiny little diamonds for the extra day in a leap year.
