You sneaky slasher, you made me look it up!  Hell, I've always been gullible. 
I think of it as a virtue.

Too bad, now you're not getting any of that lottery money I won last Saturday!

	so glad I didn't see this till today...good one da ve!
	otherwise I probably would have jumped right on the
	bandwagon myself and gone on and on and on about how
	WONDERful it is to be a parent...I AM so gullible...
	but...wait a minute...I am a little suspicious because
	of some of the other responses that did come thru before
	da ve said it was an April Fool's joke...like, some of
	them who KNOW fogandrach sound like it's true...so, it
	MUST be true...so CONGRATULATIONS you guys - and rachel:
	take it easy and enjoy this special time - and fog: treat
	that woman with EXTRA love and attention...but wait..
	maybe those OTHER people were IN on the joke with da ve...
	in which case - HA! - I KNEW it all along... you can't fool me!...

146.54What was the *real* joke?NECSC::LEVYIn search of the Big GrooveThu Apr 04 1991 19:0014
From all of the people saying that they can now *finally* talk about this, I
think that the REAL joke was that Fog&Rache! actually told *everybody* 6 weeks
ago but also said that we were being given exclusive and secret information
and to keep a wrap on it.

...so they've been laffin' for 6 weeks at ALL of us who have been biting
	our tongues off trying not to blab the news all over!

Sheesh!

We'll getcha!  We'll have a baby shower for you and not tell you where it is!
Yeah!  That's it!

Yes, I think yer right, Probs. We Duped mostly those who already knew the news.
They hadda suffer!!!!

The toughest decision was figgering who (who already knew) I would ask to 
enter the base note on 4/1. If I picked certain people, it would be too 
obvious.

Pretty amazing...

Actually, there were good reasons we couldn't share this with you earlier, we
wanted to, but, its been crazy these dayze...

Sorry to disappoint you, JC, but I got it from Juvenal (60-130 A.D.), a Roman
satirist. However, I don't deny that it has gone through other hands before
mine!

146.59what is this note about???CLOSUS::BARNESTue Apr 09 1991 13:5421
    So I don't know if this is still the April fools day note or the
    congrats to the Fogs note....but I got a great story to tell...about
    April fools that is not about The FoGS....A friend of mine is dieing,
    some of ya'll met him in our room at teh Denver shows, he wuz the
    one in the wheel chair (duh!) he goes to the dr. alot. Seems he
    talked the Dr. into giving him a vial of his own blood for April
    Fools day jokes...used it ina  bar and said he'd cut his lip on
    a broke beer bottle ...used it that nite at dinner (which we attended)
    he was cutting vegies in the sink and screamed "OhShit!"
    We raced in there ...blood was everywhere, running down his arm,
    he was shaking (grate actor!) his brother's running around looking
    for a towel to use as a compress, I'm getting quesey looking at
    all the blood....he yells out "APRIL FOOLS!" and starts dancing
    around laughing and hollering like crazy!!!! His brother calls him
    some choice terms and storms out!!! I FALL OUT LAUGHING !!!!!!!
    Sounds cruel, but the guy had such a goodtime and he doesn't have
    much time left.....I think he had been planning this for weeks

        Well, after careful review I must retract my earlier statement
        about da ve turning this note perverse (besides, if I don't he
        might come affter me with an axe and I am afraid of him :-)

        Anyway, it seems that da ve was, in fact, not guilty of
        perversion this time ... at least not obviously.  :-)

        Slash, on the other hand, was naturally being perverse.
	Not only does he have a fetish for Fog's underwear but
	he now pangs for da ve to moderate him, at his place.  ;^)

    A ground blizzard the week before caused bout 10 crashes on a section of
    285 in less than 1 hour..cops and wreckers gave up after that and shut
    285 down between fairplay and Denver, we don't go/come that way. 
    Sunday was overcast, but still the snow was melting off the roof of
    Tumbledown, there's waist deep snow in our front yard. 
    lots of snow in the highcountry, avalanches are still happinin even
    though Av warnings have been cancelled. 
    Brek Brewery beers, when mixed correctly, make some of the best
    black-n-tans around %^)
