Funny Day

If you haven't already realized, today is April 1 and also April Fools' Day. I've never really done anything to "fool" anyone on this day before but I decided to do something today.

I called my moms fiancée, Charlie, on his cell phone this morning and asked him if he'd been outside yet. He said no, why? Then I said that one of my nurses went outside to leave after her shift and came back in and told me that his passenger-side window was broken. He sounded really panicked when I said that and then he hung up quickly. I heard some loud noises upstairs and then the door slammed shut. About one minute later he comes downstairs saying my name. Then I said April fools and he burst out laughing. Then I started laughing so hard I was crying. I really got him worried thinking that someone may have broken into his truck during the night and stolen something. I guess he was still in bed and he just threw a pair of pants on and went outside with no shirt or shoes. Ha ha I'm still laughing about it.

One of our newspapers did a spoof news article yesterday, claiming that Gordon Brown (our Prime Minister) was planning to have an advertising agency brand him as a kind of "hard man" in the coming elections. They even had quotes from various people, including a feminist who campaigns against violence against women (see it here; I'm not sure if she was in on it or was being hoaxed herself). I was outraged and planned to write a blog article about it, then realised that it might have been a joke. I rang the newspaper and they told me it was.

That's funny Matt that you were actually fooled by it. I think that makes it even funnier.
