So Happy April Fools Day! Did anyone out here prank anyone? What's the best prank you've done to someone? I was just reading some celebrity pranks on Yahoo earlier. It's amazing the lengths people will go to prank or "punk" someone.

I have two sisters. I called sister "A" this morning and she reminded me that it was April Fools. She also said we should April Fool sister "B" since she is always April Fooling everyone else. I could not think of anything until I called sister "B". Sister "B" answered the phone and the usual mayhem was going on in her house with kids missing the bus, school schedules, etc. I was surprised that she answered the phone because usually they can't find it! Suddenly I was asking her if her computer was working. I told her about the computer virus that hit all the large companies today. I told her that my laptop crashed and that sister "B" who types for a large company had her system totally go down too. I then sighed and told her that I was glad I still had my regular computer and it was okay since I did not turn it on. She was amazed. I asked her if she had any computer problems this morning. She said she just got up and didn't have time to turn her computer on. I told her not to go near it and could she tell others to not turn on their computer. Her mothering instincts engaged and she began to try to give me advice on how I could get my system up and running. She asked how long sister "A's" office would be down. I told her there was no use to think we could get anything else done today because it's "APRIL FOOLS." It's a good thing we live a couple hours from one another. We got her before she got anyone today! I then called back sister "A" and asked her if her refrigerator was running. She was half listening and stammered out that it was. I told her to go catch it and tell it "April Fools." After all of this, I think I better take a rest. It's been a somewhat fruitful April Fools day!

Haha sounds like you had a lot of fun today! :) Thanks for the good laugh. It's always good to have a little humor & fun especially on a day thats meant for just that. Things are so negative these days that I was truly looking forward to it! Minus the nasty virus that was suppose to hit or did hit. I missed the news today so I don't know what it did!

Yep, I blamed the whole computer thing on the virus that was supposed to hit today. She took it hook, line, and sinker.
