| OK! Now it's time to 'fess up! I just had the best April Fool's
joke played on me!
My girlfriend and I are both divorced. She would like to marry
again someday, I am, to put it mildly, a bit reluctant. Anyway,
we have discussed marriage at length, and still maintain the same
viewpoints. Most of the time, marriage is a topic I manage to
neatly brush aside each time it comes up.
This morning, she stuck a card in my briefcase without me knowing.
I got to work, settled in, and opened my briefcase. I saw the card
with my name, and wondered why she had given me one. I mean my
birthday's not until September.
I opened the card, and on the front in great lacy flowing letters
was this;
LET'S GET MARRIED!
My heart went up in my throat, I broke out in a cold sweat, my hands
were shaking and my knees were knocking! Never before, had she
been so blunt, so forward, in making her desires known! I was in
a near state of panic. What was I to do? Visions of matrimonial
vestiges capered madly in my mind. I looked around my cubicle,
wondering if I could turn it into a refuge, a place of hiding, from
that message that had been indelibly burned into my brain. Thoughts
of the Samaritans hotline filled my mind, as I trembled. With
trembling hands, I cautiously opened the card, expecting to see
some sickeningly sweet prose, compelling me to comply and again
commit myself to marriage again! I opened the card and inside,
in the same graceful, lacy, flowing script, was written;
SCARED YOU, DIDN'T I?
APRIL FOOLS!!
Well it's a few hours later, and I'm still laughing. She really
put one over on me. I've got to give her credit, she knew right
where to strike.
So come on, everyone else! 'Fess up! Did you get fooled?

| re.4 hahahahahahhahahaha! good one!
I'll try and remember that one next year, if we're not
married yet.
I got my SO this morning, *early*, by telling him I'm pregnant.
He fell for it, hook, line and sinker. (cruel jest)
Our local radio station has been giving incorrect times this morning.
I imagine that upset a few folks, thinking they were late!
theresa.

| A year ago I was at college, and decided to get my so. I was in
one of the tutors offices and saw some headed notepaper, so I pinched
a few sheets and went to find a typewriter.
The letter I wrote said that due to courses being oversubscribed,
and there being a lack of funds, the number of students on certain
courses had to be reduced, and unfortunately hers was one of them.
I said that all the students had been assessed on their attendance,
grades, and enthusiasum for the course. As a result she would not
be allowed to complete her course, but that she should go to see
a careers tuor imediately.
On April fools morning I woke up and gave her a plain brown envelope,
saying that it was pinned up on the notice board the previous day.
( This was how all notices/letters were given out). She opened the
letter and began to read, she said OH NO a couple of times, and
then her bottom lip began to tremble, and a tear started to fall
down her cheek, then she really started crying. Then I shouted APRIL
FOOL!
Then I got the hardest wack in the mush that I think any man has
ever received. Served me right I suppose

| Some friends of mine are die-hard coffee drinkers, especially upon
waking in the morning. They have an automatic drip coffee maker
with a timer to start the coffee in the morning.
Now, before proceeding, you have to know that the wife in this story
is a REAL MONSTER in the morning without her coffee. And, yes,
she will admit to this.
So, on this particular April Fool's Day, she awakened to a fresh
brewed pot of coffee. What she did'nt know was that her husband
had filled the filter full of coffee with salt also. Lots of it!!
Ruined her entire morning and took him most of the day to make up!
