My mother gave birth to my sister on April fools day, that was pretty good.

I stuck a "kick me" sign on my friend's back.

My wife played one on our children (9 & 11) this morning. She thought of it last night. We wanted to do one that would be fun but not get the children upset or give them false hopes, etc.....so....

Last night after the children were asleep my wife changed their clocks back an hour. Needless to say they were amazed at how bright it was at 5:30 in the morning. :)

Here's one I'm pulling on my 11 year old and her friends tonight:

I don't have a good stunt, I usually just forget about 4-1 until someone mentions it. But my father did get promoted to Maj on 4-1 some years ago. The guys poked fun and his "certificate" said he was being promoted to Lt. Everyone had a chuckle because the boss made a funny. :)

I staged a murder scene at my mom's condo. I outlined my wife with tape like a dead body on the living room floor and stuck some real Crime Scene tape over the door. She got home several hours later and skipped a couple of breaths. Her neighbors wondered just what happened at her house.

To make it better, I called the gag in on a radio show and won a prize for best gag. My mom happened to turn on the radio as he was announcing that the winner was the sicko that staged a murder at his mom's. She said to herself "oh, Steve won."

Years ago just out of high school, I worked at a GM dealership in a small central TX town. The head mechanic told me to go to a parts house for a "muffler bearing". I told him no such part existed. Turns out - that was a running joke to pull on new mechanics.

The following year, we had another new mechanic start working there. On April 1 of that year, the head mechanic asked the newbie, Gary, to go to the parts house for a "muffler bearing" for a car we had in the shop.

Gary left for the closest parts house, and we had already called them to let them in on the joke. They told him they had "sold the last one yesterday".

After going to all the parts houses in town, Gary came back empty-handed. He said the second store would have some in the following day and would call when the shipment came in.

Just as we were walking to our cars to go home, one of the older mechanics told Gary, "April Fools", but told him he was a good sport for going all over town to find the nonexistent "muffler bearing".

My wife's sister is a nurse. She had one of her nurse buddies using official lingo call my wife and tell her that her lot of birth control pills was accidentally filled with placebos. She went on to say that my wife should bring what was left back to the pharmacy where they would replace them and provide her with a complimentary pregnancy test. So my wife stormed down there, slapped the pills on the counter and a few 'words' with the pharmacist. After receiving blank looks and an explanation that no such thing had occurred, the light went on, my wife grabbed her pills turned around and never went back to that pharmacy...
