I can't keep my face straight enough, whilst trying to play a trick on anybody, they would guess straight away!
I do try and keep away from my friends' son on April fools day though, because he spends weeks thinking up new tricks to play on people! He is a teenager with a wicked sense of humor, but with good intentions.(normally)
Normally he makes a phone call to his Grandparents on april fools day, and he always catches them off guard!
Last year just before April fools day, he saw a teacher from his school speeding on his motorbike, he went in on April fools day, and told the teacher that his Dad was a police officer, and had caught the teacher on camera speeding, and he was going to be prosecuted, the teacher was quite 'upset' for a few minutes until he realized my friends' son was playing a joke on him.
The teacher incidentally had also been the boys Dad's teacher when he was at school, and had given the Dad a hard time, and had made his life miserable whilst he attended school. My friends' son found double the joy in playing the joke on this particular teacher for this exact reason, and told us it was 'poetic justice'
Hopefully this year his 'joke' will be mild!
No, I lack the imagination and planning that it takes to do anything elaborate for April Fool's day. Generally, I let my kids play their pranks on me, get it over with, and move on to April 2nd. My little girl loves to tell me I have a caterpillar on my head

So that's why I had an Animation skin when I logged in this morning? Good one. A lot more subtle than the one time you told us the forum was shutting down. That was scary!
I just followed the link and got two different skins. Weird. Mildly amusing, but still, not wicked enough to be among the greats. What you need to do is send out "account disable" messages! Now that would count among the great ones!
I couldn't bring myself to do my April Fool joke this year -- which was to announce my immediate marriage and quitting of the forum. I doubt anyone would have believed me since I don't think I could have told it convincingly.
