"Humor is a serious thing. I like to think of it as one of our greatest and earliest national resources which must be preserved at all costs." -- James Thurber However big the fool, there is always a bigger fool to admire him. -- Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux [Politicians] never open their mouths without subtracting from the sum of human knowledge. -- Thomas Reed He who lives without folly isn't so wise as he thinks. -- François, Duc de La Rochefoucauld The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly, is to fill the world with fools. -- Herbert Spencer Sometimes, one likes foolish people for their folly, better than wise people for their wisdom. -- Elizabeth Gaskell Looking foolish does the spirit good. -- John Updike Let us be thankful for the fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed. -- Mark Twain A fool must now and then be right by chance. -- Cowper "The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year." --Mark Twain April Fools Day: An Unsolved History The first of April, some do say, Is set apart for All Fools' Day. But why the people call it so, Nor I, nor they themselves do know. But on this day are people sent On purpose for pure merriment. -- Poor Robin's Almanac (1790) The History of April Fools' Day OK, who started it? Did some joker in biblical times decide to switch the frankincense and the myrrh? Was there a historic epidemic of spring fever-tomfoolery in a tiny Finnish town in the early 1800s? Did the first Fools come from France, England, Mexico, Sweden or India? The truth, as in any good mystery, lies hidden in the shadows of time. Some say that April Fools Day began in many parts of the world at the same time, in celebration of the spring equinox. Pranks were a big part of even the most boring equinox parties, everywhere from Sweden to India. In a convincing testimonial to the saying that truth is stranger than fiction, we'll tell you the story, or at least present the most viable theory, of how April Fools' Day came to be. Once upon a time, back in 16th-century France, people celebrated New Year's Day on March 25, the advent of spring. It was a festive time. They partied steadily until April 1. In 1564, when the calendar reformed and became Gregorian, King Charles IX proclaimed, perhaps pompously, that New Year's Day should be celebrated on January 1 instead of in the spring. Diehard conservatives resisted the change (or perhaps didn't hear about it due to the absence of e-mail) and continued to celebrate New Year's from March 25 to April 1. During this period of spring festivity, the more flexible French mocked the rigid revelers by sending them foolish gifts and invitations to non-existent parties. Widespread observance in England began in the 18th century. The English, Scotch and French introduced the custom to their colonies in America. One of our forefathers' favorite jokes was to send someone on a "fool's errand." For example, one might have been asked to go out and obtain a copy of "The History of Adam's Grandfather," or bring back some "sweet vinegar." In Scotland, April Fools Day is 48 hours long. The second day is called Taily Day and is dedicated to pranks involving the buttocks. Taily Day's gift to posterior posterity is the still-hilarious "Kick Me" sign. The "foolish" tradition is celebrated in Mexico, too, but on a different day and for different reasons. "El Dia de los Inocentes," which is December 28, was set aside as a day for Christians to mourn Herod's slaughter of innocent children. Over time, the tone of that "unluckiest of days" has evolved from sadness to good-natured trickery. Even the media join the fun, often running bogus news stories and radio reports. We may never learn the true origin of April Fools Day. However, the deeper question facing us today is, "What's the best gag I can pull off?" April Fool The maple syrup's full of ants. A mouse is creeping on the shelf. Is that a spider on your back? I ate the whole pie by myself. The kitchen sink just overflowed. A flash flood washed away the school. I threw your blanket in the trash. I never lie----I--- APRIL FOOL! ~Myra Cohn Livingston Pranks Superglue a quarter to the sidewalk. It gets really amusing. Write some funny words in a meticulously-groomed front lawn with some Ortho Super-Gro Lawn Food (white powdery stuff). Do it in the dead of night, and next morning it will be bold and white for the world to see. When the owner tries to hose it off the grass will come up a little greener than anywhere else. The words will still be visable.! Propose to your the victim a hand co-ordination test. Tell him that it has been taken by the brightest people around you (quote some scores!). You sit in front of the victim and put your hands about twelve inches apart. The victim's task is very simple. With eyes closed, his hands clasped together, he should cautiously put his hands between your hands, remove them, and repeat the process. Of course, he must not touch your hands otherwise he "loses". Each cycle counts as one point and "any average person can get 100 points". Let him practice a little with his eyes open. Then blindfold him (to avoid the "natural" temptation of cheating) and say START. After a while leave. It is a hilarious sight to see a person move his hands up and down for no obvious reason. Be sure to invite many of your friends to witness this sight. You will find that this co-ordination test really sounds sincere, and many innocent people who listen to you explaining to the chosen victim, actually volunteer to take the test before the victim. This gives you a choice of victims to choose from. Ask your victim to take a quarter and place it on a piece of paper. Then ask him to take a pencil, and without removing his finger off the quarter, to draw a circle around the quarter. Have him repeat the same exercise with each of his fingers pressing on top of the quarter. Afterwards, have him pick up the quarter and rub it along the bridge of his nose. It'll then be really funny to watch him walk around with a black line on his face. If you have a radio station that gives away pizzas, movie passes, clothes, etc. for answering trivia questions throughout the day record a trivia question on your tape deck and keep the tape in the deck. When one of your friends comes to visit turn on the station. Bring up a conversation that will have answer to the trivia question that you have taped. Also be sure your friend is close to a phone. As soon as one of the songs end, turn on the tape without your friend noticing. Tell your friend to call. He will be really excited that he got through and started yelling the answer at the mystified D.J. Your friend will be so embarrassed. Look out for him to pay you back. Let a person know you are going to play a big joke on him within 5 days. (Pick your time frame.) Tell him he will be powerless to stop you. If you do it right, he'll worry himself to pieces and make a fool of himself. Then DO NOTHING. Next time when you are having dinner, keep an empty jug of water on the table. When somebody asks you to pass the jug, pretend while picking it up that it is full of water and heavy. Keep the jug on the table near the victim. The victim will apply what he/she considers is appropriate strength needed to pick up the jug. This will cause the jug to jerk up to a significant height. The sight is very funny and so is the victim's face. You need a phone with a handset so that you can unscrew the mouth piece and remove the pickup. It's real easy, they are just sitting in there and not wired down. Replace the mouth piece and think up a good excuse to get someone to use the phone. Of course, the person on the other end will hear nothing and your victim will just keep trying to be heard. It's a good joke because it is totally harmless. Be sure you put the pick up back. Get a banana. Use large sewing needle to pierce skin at seam and move needle back and forth to "cut" banana in half. Continue doing this along the seam and banana will be sliced when someone peels it. Saran wrap on reading glasses is good. Trimming at edge of lens is hard but effect is great. It is not usually noticed when first picked. The optical quality of saran is spectacularly bad. Put a bubble pack behind the wheels of an occupied chair. Really funny when the unsuspecting person rolls back. Back to: To write to the TinChicken Click on the chick Take out the words "No Spam"

Get a banana. Use large sewing needle to pierce skin at seam and move needle back and forth to "cut" banana in half. Continue doing this along the seam and banana will be sliced when someone peels it. Saran wrap on reading glasses is good. Trimming at edge of lens is hard but effect is great. It is not usually noticed when first picked. The optical quality of saran is spectacularly bad. Put a bubble pack behind the wheels of an occupied chair.

The maple syrup's full of ants. A mouse is creeping on the shelf. Is that a spider on your back? I ate the whole pie by myself. The kitchen sink just overflowed. A flash flood washed away the school. I threw your blanket in the trash. I never lie----I--- APRIL FOOL! ~Myra Cohn Livingston Pranks Superglue a quarter to the sidewalk. It gets really amusing. Write some funny words in a meticulously-groomed front lawn with some Ortho Super-Gro Lawn Food (white powdery stuff). Do it in the dead of night, and next morning it will be bold and white for the world to see. When the owner tries to hose it off the grass will come up a little greener than anywhere else. The words will still be visable.! Propose to your the victim a hand co-ordination test. Tell him that it has been taken by the brightest people around you (quote some scores!). You sit in front of the victim and put your hands about twelve inches apart. The victim's task is very simple. With eyes closed, his hands clasped together, he should cautiously put his hands between your hands, remove them, and repeat the process. Of course, he must not touch your hands otherwise he "loses". Each cycle counts as one point and "any average person can get 100 points". Let him practice a little with his eyes open. Then blindfold him (to avoid the "natural" temptation of cheating) and say START. After a while leave. It is a hilarious sight to see a person move his hands up and down for no obvious reason. Be sure to invite many of your friends to witness this sight. You will find that this co-ordination test really sounds sincere, and many innocent people who listen to you explaining to the chosen victim, actually volunteer to take the test before the victim. This gives you a choice of victims to choose from. Ask your victim to take a quarter and place it on a piece of paper. Then ask him to take a pencil, and without removing his finger off the quarter, to draw a circle around the quarter. Have him repeat the same exercise with each of his fingers pressing on top of the quarter. Afterwards, have him pick up the quarter and rub it along the bridge of his nose. It'll then be really funny to watch him walk around with a black line on his face. If you have a radio station that gives away pizzas, movie passes, clothes, etc. for answering trivia questions throughout the day record a trivia question on your tape deck and keep the tape in the deck. When one of your friends comes to visit turn on the station. Bring up a conversation that will have answer to the trivia question that you have taped. Also be sure your friend is close to a phone. As soon as one of the songs end, turn on the tape without your friend noticing. Tell your friend to call. He will be really excited that he got through and started yelling the answer at the mystified D.J. Your friend will be so embarrassed. Look out for him to pay you back. Let a person know you are going to play a big joke on him within 5 days. (Pick your time frame.) Tell him he will be powerless to stop you. If you do it right, he'll worry himself to pieces and make a fool of himself. Then DO NOTHING. Next time when you are having dinner, keep an empty jug of water on the table. When somebody asks you to pass the jug, pretend while picking it up that it is full of water and heavy. Keep the jug on the table near the victim. The victim will apply what he/she considers is appropriate strength needed to pick up the jug. This will cause the jug to jerk up to a significant height. The sight is very funny and so is the victim's face. You need a phone with a handset so that you can unscrew the mouth piece and remove the pickup. It's real easy, they are just sitting in there and not wired down. Replace the mouth piece and think up a good excuse to get someone to use the phone.
