    Well.


    What's something funny that you have done on April Fool's Day.

    Or have you been on the wrong end of the joke before?

    I had a friend who used to rag on Salty Parker who used to be a 3rd base coach for the Astros back in the early 70's. My friend even wrote a critical letter to The Chronicle which got published.

    On April 1, I hand wrote a letter to my friend under Salty Parker's signature. In the letter, I acknowledged the criticisms and notified my friend Larry of my (Salty's) forthcoming resignation from the Astros coaching staff, etc.

    When he got the letter, Larry called me and admitted that he felt awful about causing such an outcome. I let him stew about it for a few days before letting him in on the drop.

    This isn't great, but I got some mild pleasure out of it. This morning I get on AIM and tell my ex roommate (who has biology with me) and told him that biology was cancelled today.

    He goes "for real?" and I tell him "Um, yeah dude..." and he asked how I knew and I told him that I had talked to the professor last night and he said some "personal business" had come up.

    My rooommate got all excited and then I went "April Fools!" and he went off on me calling me every bad name in the book. :cool:

    OK, A few years back we were doing company physical at our office. Although there were offices, the physicals were always held next to "the pit" (cubicle area) at the office with some curtains pulled around for privacy.

    Anyway, during the physical I was told there would be a "mandatory rectal exam". Wasn't to thrilled, but I didn't have a choice.

    The doctor told me to prepare while he brought in the proctologist.

    The doctor came in and was doing the exam. All of the sudden, the curtains swung open, and ALL OF MY CO-WORKER'S were standing around!

    God that was such a good practical joke. I turned around, and it turned out the the "proctologist" was really my boss!

    Boy, we all had a good laugh that day.

    Good times....

    I was leaving it up to you guys. But I guess I will share a story.

    I remember this one April Fools day and stuff. It was first period, and I have Speech First period. This was my sophomore year in High School. The teacher I had was a real fruit. Flaming. I don't know his sexuality, nor I care, but man, this guy was a real fruit. He did all those hand gestures, and all that crap.

    He is always late for school and came in the class with about 15-20 minutes left in it. He would come in and say "oh my the traffic on i-10 is sooo terrible."

    But the Joke wasn't on him. I sat near the door, and the trashcan was next door. We had nothing to do except for playing around. We got bored and started throwing paper around the room. I wanted to throw some paper balls at this one guy on the other side of the room, and I threw it, but I was way off. It hit the wall, and bounced off of it, and hit him in the head. I laughed my ass off. I guess we decided to clean up, because this teacher across the hallway came in and told us to be quiet, but leave the door open. I looked at the trash at it had no trash in it. I decided to put a hole in it. I told my friend to put a hole in it. We got a pen and cut the trash lining on the bottom. We got a piece of paper and wrote april fools on it and taped it tot he bottom.
    We had two trashcans in the room, and the other room where that teacher basically told us to shut up didn't have one. She came in and just took the trash. She took the one where we had cut it open. We looked at each other with out trying to laugh so damn hard.

    As soon as she left, we kept cracking up.

    I feel bad for who ever the janitor was who had to take out the trash at the end of the day. I could just imagine them pulling the bag up, and none of the trash coming with it. and when they dumped all the trash in a bag, they would see the sign.




    After re-reading this story, I made this story sound very boring. But man was that funny in its day.

    One April Fools Day, my ex was telling everyone to go ask her roommate how many pushups her Dad could do.

    So, I went and asked, and she immediately burst into tears and screamed, "**** you *******, my Dad had his arm blown off in Vietnam!!!" and ran off crying. Of course, I run after her to explain that I didn't know and that I was sorry and stuff and when I got to her, she was laughing hysterically at my apologies. She and my ex got everyone good that day.

    So, that night, we got our revenge. She was always b****ing non-stop about how ****ty the mattresses were in the dorms, and she had to put a bunch of **** on her's to make it comfortable (not to mention all the **** she had around it). Also, she always came in really late on weekdays, like midnight, so there was a big group of us that always hung out in the lobby and when she came in, we told her that they brought new mattresses, and if you weren't here, they put them in the Resident's office, all you had to do was bring your old one down. She got sooooo excited, ran upstairs, and dragged her mattress down three flights of stairs only to be greeted by our laughter.

    Good times.

    I got Tara today...not the greatest, but something. Our builder is finishing up our house but being stubborn about certain things that she's been talking to him about. I told her that I would call him this morning and straighten it out. Later in the day, she pm'ed me to ask if I had contacted him and I told her that I had a big argument with the builder and told him that we weren't going to buy the house and that I had hung up on him. She was so sweet in that she supported what she thought I said, but when she found out it was a joke, she expressed that she was a little worried about the situation.

    FattyFB...RM95...good ones!!!
