OK, I admit I put her up to it, hehe. In the USA, a week from tomorrow, it's April Fools day. My 26-year-old single niece lives next door with her mom while she's attending college. And we were talking the other day when the subject of April Fools day came up. She asked me for a good one to pull on her mom. First, realize that though she's 26 years old, her mom treats her like she's a teenager ... always wanting to know who she's going out with and when she'll be coming home. So, this is what I suggested. I asked her if any of her female friends are currently pregnant. She said YES. So (evil grin), I told her to go to a drug store like Walgreens or Rite-Aid and buy 3 different brands of home pregnancy tests ... the ones that "turn blue" if you're pregnant. Then I told her to get her friend to pee on the test media ... making them turn blue. And then, on the morning of April 1st, she'll run to her mom, test media in hand, with a worried look on her face and say, "Oh my God, Mom, they all turned blue!" That should put some color in her mom's cheeks, hehehe ... until she laughs a few seconds later and says "April Fools!" |

Cease and desist at once Sir! What you are proposing demonstrates a disregard for the harmony of that dear girl's mother. Instead, get the strips yourself and send the girl over to report that you turned them blue! A good joke is no excuse for evil intentions.... edit: Perhaps you and the Lady's mother have been doing this sort of thing for years, no? re-edit: After reading that last, perhaps not.... |

I'm glad I had boys. lol! However, I was thinking of playing a nasty trick on my youngest. We left him home alone for the first time last weekend while we went away and apparently he had a friend stay over and they watched the Poltergeist movie. I was thinking of buying an evil looking clown doll and leaving it sticking out from under his bed on April 1st. Reality Internet Personality |

I was thinking of buying an evil looking clown doll and leaving it sticking out from under his bed on April 1st. Hehe. True story. My ex-wife had absolutely no tolerance for horror. And yet, she insisted on watching horror films. She was about 8 months pregnant with our son when she asked me to take her to see "Poltergeist." And when the scene came where the demon's face came out of the closet, she stood up in the theater and screamed at the top of her lungs (snicker). Other patrons started quietly giggling - and she sunk back into her seat with her hands over her face, totally embarrassed. Another time, she was watching "Creature From the Black Lagoon" on TV with her cousin. I'd seen it before and knew there was one scene where the creature sneaked up behind a lady, put its claw hand on her shoulder, and made an "Awwwww" creature sound. As the scene came up, I sneaked behind the sofa where she was sitting. And at the exact moment when the creature put its hand on the lady's shoulder, I put my hand on her shoulder and went "Awwwww." Hehehe, it's a good thing we had a tall ceiling because she jumped straight up into the air. Yet another time, she watched the original "Psycho" for the first time. Later that night when she was taking a shower, I put an old table-cloth over my shoulders that looked like Norman Bates mom's shawl ... got a banana ... and quietly went into the bathroom. I swung the shower curtain open and started stabbing at her with the banana, making the "EEEE EEEE EEEE" sound. That night, I slept on the couch (grin). |

Occasionally, pregnancy test jokes can have profound results. Darwin works in mysterious ways, for it to be "pregnancy" and sometimes "testicular cancer". Must be some sort of evolutionary advantage. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. |

So, what happened? Well, life is what happens "after" you make plans. My niece had to leave town to be with her sister (some kind of emergency surgery on her neck). Not sure whether she did the joke by email (or not at all). Oh, well. If she didn't do the joke, there's always next year - assuming she's still living with her mom and going to college (and doesn't get married/pregnant in the interim). |

From left-to-right, my niece's mom, my niece's sister (after neck surgery), and my niece: BTW, my niece didn't have time to pull the joke and didn't want to do it from out of town. But, she's considering it for next year's April Fools' Day. Her sister had some kind of "bone" surgery. Not sure what it entailed. |

Well, I assure you it's not pornography nor adult in nature (except that the 3 people in the picture are adults). Anyone else get this type of warning? Looks to me like you have an overzealous employer concerned about employees browsing photos on their time clock. |

They look fine and worthy here. I do hope that dear lady with the pathology on her neck had a good result. edit: Just a thought, who is the evil one, the puppet, or the puppet master? |

(Which can make it difficult for high school students to research breast cancer, for example.) Ouch on the neck surgery. Looks nasty. Lovely ladies, though.
