Did anyone get you today or did you get anyone with a good joke???

I wasn't got today.  Thanks goodness.  The kids always try to pull something over on me on April 1st.  We still have an on-going prank with my husband.  My daughter bought a swimming suit this week.  It was on a hanger that was shaped like a woman, a clear woman with a hanger for a head.  So, we dressed this woman hanger up and put on an alien mask that the kids wore one Halloween.  She's laying in bed!  My husband came home, saw her and I played dumb.  I told him I wasn't falling for any of his pranks.  The kids sneaked in the room and hid her.  I finally gave in and agreed to look at the alien in bed.  She was miraculously gone!  The kids put her back.  He found her again.  Then, she was gone.  She's been appearing and disappearing for the past few hours.  I haven't seen her yet  My husband is convinced that I don't know anything about this.  Meanwhile the kids are having fun sneaking about the house with the alien woman.  I think I'll have them hang her in the shower next!   bear_grin

But, the best joke was one my husband and I played on my daughter this evening.  Kelsey is 15 an notorious for her VERY long showers.  So, we turned off the main water line to the house when she was in the shower.  You should have heard the squealing.  We just ignored it.  She finally came out, wrapped in a towel with shampoo in her hair.  If I had been thinking clearly, I would have had my camera ready.  She was madder than a wet hornet!

I hope you all had a little fun this April Fool's Day!

Hugs,

I did a good one today.

Take a piece of wire coat hanger and bend it into a "U" shape.
Next, use two big, fat rubber bands to attach a large fender washer between the prongs of the "U".
Wind it up good and tight then slip it into an old Fed-Ex envelope.  (You know, the Tyvek ones that are made out of that paper you can't tear.)
Fold it in half if you need to so that the washer is prevented from spinning by the sides of the envelope.

Get a black magic marker and write on the outside of the envelope:

RATTLESNAKE EGGS
Found in [some likely location]
Due to hatch some time at the end of March.

Leave it in a location where your victim will find it.
When he picks it up and opens the envelope the washer will spin against the paper envelope and make a loud "B-R-R-R-R!" sound.

It's guaranteed to make him scream like a girl!   bear_grin  bear_grin  bear_grin

I got one guy today real good!  He threw the envelope on the ground and started to run away!

This is one of those jokes when you play it on somebody they'll say, "That was TERRIBLE!...  Let's go do it to somebody else!   :twisted:

It doesn't necessarily have to be rattlesnakes.
There's got to be some kind of creature in Oz that would make a likely story.

P.S.  Rattlesnakes don't lay eggs!   bear_tongue
