April Fools Pranks

Ken · April 01, 2014, 03:59:18 PM

Does anyone else take part in this silly ritual. I get my kids quite often. This morning while blowing snow I called my youngest daughter a little after 5:30 to tell her that her sister had her baby a couple weeks early. She was some excited. It wasn't until later in the morning that she clued in. I've been laughing all day.

The City Fire dept made a announcement that they would start allowing Firefighters to wear tactical kilts on duty.

YEsterday Morning my Brither-in-law texted me:

PETE: "HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!"

ME: "I Can't Talk now. I'm in the ER. I slipped on the ice and may have broken my leg"

PETE: OH NO!

ME: APRIL FOOLS!

Yesterday in our Living room, Stacy came to visit and was sitting there with her mom.

ME: "Stace, Did your Mom Tell you about Aunt Lynda?"

STACY: No....

ME: "She fell while in Florida and broke her hip."

STACY: "Oh No!!"

ME: APRIL FOOLS!

I told my daughter last night that she was going to have Friday off from school due to a major snow storm coming.
I didn't get to say April fools, yet.
I'll see what happens when I get home tonight.

If you think I'm holding that ladder for you...

I had enough truth happen yesterday to worry about being a fool. And I was one tired monkey at day's end.

My wife told my 4 year old that she baked brownies for dessert. When he opened it up, he found two brown paper letter E's! Pretty funny!

Magicman · April 02, 2014, 06:13:29 PM

I hope that she had some real brownies tucked back for him. ;)

So for a fun one, I printed up a page of Brown "letter E's" and took it home with me.

I told my daughter I brought home some brown E's for her and her mother.
They were not happy at all. And they didn't think it was one bit funny.
I'm in the dog house for sure, now.

I guess I'll have to go to the store and get some real ones to bring home tonight. To make up for it.

Yes, I would think so. Joking about brownies is serious business.

Jim_Rogers · April 03, 2014, 02:17:56 PM

Don't I know it.

Jim_Rogers · April 04, 2014, 11:19:44 AM

I brought home two packages of brownies last night. All is forgiven.

Years ago I called my brother and changed my voice so he wouldn't recognize me. Pretended I was the I R S and told him there was a big problem with his tax return and if he didn't come to the federal building in the next couple of days I was going to issue a warrant for his arrest.

I waited for a couple of hours before I let him off the hook.

elk42 · April 04, 2014, 10:23:55 PM

Does he still call you brother or.

sawguy21 · April 04, 2014, 11:25:59 PM

I called my buddy at 8 am on a Saturday to ask if the coffee was on. Called an hour later to say I was home 9 hours away. He was not amused. :D

thecfarm · April 05, 2014, 10:11:04 AM
