April Fool Joke

Did you play any April Fool's Day jokes today?

For Robin, I painted a face on a balloon, put it atop a mannequin, added clothing, woke up in the middle of the night, placed the mysterious stranger on our back steps and went back to bed. This morning, Robin awoke, went into the kitchen groggy and without her glasses and spotted the mysterious stranger -- in a place she never expects anyone to be. Naturally, a reaction followed...

Hospital visiting hours are from 2 to 4. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.  :-)

  1. Oooooh that's evil but it made me chuckle! Great choice of scarf on the mannequin.
    I'll post some grapes to the hospital.

  2. Hahahahaha...oh my. One time my friend Jerry played a prank on our friend Terry. He was going to F.I.T and had a mannequin, so very late one night he stuck it on the front lawn with the legs sticking out of a bush. Terry's sister got up in the morning and went out to get the paper and came running back in the house yelling that there was a dead body on the lawn. That was a good one.

  3. So elaborate! Did you sleep for the second half of the night? I would have been lying there giggling!
    This year I helped my son draw spiders on the toilet paper, and I was the only one spooked! Memory...😄
    I hope you, your wife and your mannequin (does it have a name?) are all in one piece. Xo Jazzy Jack

    1. I've very careful when planning pranks to make sure they aren't TOO mean. That would ruin the fun. I go for momentary shock, not pain.

  8. I don't play any jokes on L, but I came up with two for my work (which I told a few people about, but didn't carry out, because...HR, ha ha). One was an email announcing bunk desks (our office is going to be moving this year - running out of room), with the tag line, "Bringing whole new meaning to "climbing the corporate ladder!"". The other was expanded recycling, with 30 bins labeled things like "cheese", "food that has been near cheese", "staples", "bits of lint." Hee, it would have been hilarious...

  9. Back in college and throughout law school (nights) I worked as a security officer. I recall working the midnight shift. The desk officer was an older Spanish fellow who did not like doing night patrols. We teased him that he was chicken. We had a TV in the station that only picked up channel 2 that played old movies through the night. He had been watching "Creature from the Black Lagoon". They had just taken down a building and in the rubble I found a head bust that looked a bit like Hitler. I quietly placed it on the window sill and walked into the base. I walked towards the window and as Ramon looked over my shoulder he saw the "head on the window sill". He darn near had a heart attack.
