April Fools

[abens1078]

Any body have any good gags that they play on others or have had others play on them in honor of this most wonderful day?

A few years ago a co-worker ordered a new boat in January. He was expecting delivery around April 1, so we had a new employee (so the voice would not be recognized) leave a voice mail saying the boat was being transported from the factory to the dealer but the truck got in a wreck and the boat was ruined. We all sat back laughing our a**es off as he frantically called the dealer and tried to find someone there that knew about the wreck. It took him a while to hear us laughing and figure it out. That was one funny day!

Well not fishing related but. We make pancakes for the kids in the morning and put a thin square piece of cloth in one while we're frying them up. It's fun to see the look on their faces trying to cut the pancake and, if they don't figure it out, it's more fun watching them trying to chew on it. It'd be a great trick on a fishing trip with the guys.

Our receptionist at work is a super nice gal, pretty ditzy, but super nice.

I'm still laughing.

We just had her go around to every phone in the place and put plastic bags over them because we were going to "Blow out the phone lines." and we didn't want to get dust all over everything. She did it. My sides killin me.

As an emergency energy conservation measure daylight savings time has been cancelled this year. Due to the increase in oil prices we need to conserve energy. Do not set your clocks ahead this weekend.

In school today we were watching a survival guide video in my Natural Resources class. LEt me tell you, it wasn't the most interesting video on the planet. So some kid falls asleep and the teacher wakes him up tells him to go look for the Janitor. She says she needs some chemical or ingredient for her next class. She tells him to ask for

K-9-P. The kid walks out the door and the class breaks up laughing. Turns out she has done this before so the Janitor knows whats going on. Cracks me up still thinking about it.

mechanictim, I hate to burst you bubble, but daylight savings IS DONE to conserve energy In fact there is an editorial in today's paper calling for an extra hour to conserve even more.

A co-worker put in her one day notice today. The supervisor one upper her and shrugged and said OK. The best part was the supervisor wasn't joking .

I work for a mail-order company in the order taking department. Three years ago we had a huge number of back-ordered items coming in (a month late). All but three people from the phone area went back to the shipping department to help out. Instead of the supplier packaging everything separately, they sent all of one of the pieces in one truck. Another part packaged together on another truck. And then the boxes they sent didn't fit things correctly so we had to get an emergency shipment of boxes.

Well, day two of getting things packaged fell on this wonderful day called April Fools Day.

One of my co-workers, beautiful young lady and great friend of mine, said to me and another co-worker, "we need to pull a joke on these guys." We put our heads together and came up with the following....

In walks the shipping and receiving manager. Co-worker says, "Guess what I found out last night! I'm pregnant!"

"Hey, that's great news!" replies the manager. "You should go back to answering phones, take it easy. You shouldn't be doing this heavy lifting."

"Naw, I'll be fine."

The other co-worker and I go along with the act.

Ten minutes later, one of the ladies from the shipping department comes from the order packing area. Excitedly she says, "Is it true? Are you really? Congratulations! I'm so happy for you! Is Eddy the father?"

Then the twist comes in. "Well, it could be Eddy. But it could also be Joe" she replies as she smiles at me. I'm Joe. I didn't expect this but go along with the it.

"Well, congratulations!"

Lunch time. We walk through the order packing department and everybody asks us what we're going to name our kid. LOL. I only wish. I had such a huge crush on her at the time.

It wasn't until the following Monday that everybody figured out that it was a joke.

I'm usually not much of a prankster, but today I absolutely roasted my brother. He's your typical college student who is completely oblivious to what day it is. In the summer, he makes money by buying old Lund aluminum boats and restoring them to sell. He has a 14 footer that he finished last fall and is now looking to unload. So today I call him up and let him know that one of the Senior Managers I with work is looking for a boat for his kid. So of course my brother is all excited, and he writes down the number to reach him at. I tell him his name is David Ostrich, but that when he calls, to be sure to address him as Mr. Ostrich, since he's a Sr. Manager. Well, little did he know the number I gave him wasn't my manager's. So he calls up this number and asks for Mr. Ostrich, and the lady is like, "Sir.....this is the Como Zoo. My brother goes, "Ohhhhh (Contact US Regarding This Word), and quickly hangs up the phone". He calls me 10 minutes later and says, "I can't believe I fell for that". I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to bust my gut. Absolutely hilarious.

When I was uyoung we had an old lady who lived across the street from us. She would always take us out for school clothes shopping and buy us expensive shoes and such. We were pretty lucky. Anyways, every April Fool's she would make chocolate covered cotton balls. They looked just like bon-bons. We fell for it for 3 or 4 years in a row Nothing quite like biting into a chocolate flavored cotton ball. Squeaks on your teeth...

Kind of mean, but when I was a gradeschooler I went to the local hardware store and bought four alarm clocks. During the day I hid them in my little sister's room under the bed, behind the dresser, in the closet. I set one for Midnight, one for 1am, 2am, and 3am. My room was below hers so I was up all night too but I was laughing!
