Happy April Fool's day! We've had a great weekend watching Conference and relaxing at home. We tried a few tricks this morning - but we learned one thing - Peirce doesn't have much of a sense of humor when it comes to practical jokes on him. We didn't have anything great or noteworthy as far as pranks go - but tried a few things. We'd share our news...and quickly follow up with "April Fool's!" upon which he'd run away crying.
...maybe next year...
I enjoyed reading about great practical jokes other people have done! Here's one of my favorites:
In 1998 Burger King published a full page advertisement in USA Today announcing the introduction of a new item to their menu: a "Left-Handed Whopper" specially designed for the 32 million left-handed Americans. According to the advertisement, the new whopper included the same ingredients as the original Whopper (lettuce, tomato, hamburger patty, etc.), but all the condiments were rotated 180 degrees for the benefit of their left-handed customers. The following day Burger King issued a follow-up release revealing that although the Left-Handed Whopper was a hoax, thousands of customers had gone into restaurants to request the new sandwich. Simultaneously, according to the press release, "many others requested their own 'right handed' version."
Here's another good one by Google...like only Google can do...
