GREEN APRIL FOOL

IT’S APRIL FOOLS DAY POGS!

Behaving foolishly is expected today so here are a few ideas for doing what’s expected:

Frozen mouse - Take a Post-It note and place it over the eye of the victim’s optical mouse. When the victim tries to use his or her computer, the cursor won’t move. Be sure to write “April Fools!” on the note!

Ransom note - Take an item from the victim’s office (something they use a lot such as a special coffee cup, stapler, pencil cup, etc.). Take a picture of the item and leave it on the victim’s desk (in the same spot where the item was located), along with a “ransom” note.

Misplaced coffee cup - Tape magnets to the bottom of an empty coffee cup, and attach it to the top of your car. Other motorists will frantically try to get your attention as you drive by.

If you’re feeling really immature with the victim looking on, pretend you see a fly in the room. Grab a fly swatter and chase it around for awhile. Then make a big swat, reach down and grab the “fly” (actually a raisin you’ve concealed in your hand), and gobble it down.


Or, if you’re feeling really perverse trot yourself down to the nearest Rat Lab and engineer your own glowing green rodent. Just integrate your mouse embryos’ X chromosomes with a transgene that codes for a glowing protein called green florescent protein (GFP).

Or, if you’re one of the rich CEO’s who received millions of dollars in bonuses you can use the new ‘green wall’ product, known as the Core Hydraulic Integrated Arboury panel, on the exterior of your giant skyscraper making it look like a giant gherkin.


Or, if you’re just a poor slob who's lost your shirt in the market then stay at home, watch American Idol, have some mean, green beans and worry about the Conficker worm.
