Well this is my favorite day, The April’s Fool Day, and one of my 4teens is constantly a victim of this day. This 4teen is Pretty Street smart and hopefully one of these days he can relate the date and the unbelievable story and draw the right conclusion!!
April 1st 2007 prank of 4t+:
I got up in the morning pretending to be very sick and nauseated. 4teen was a bit concerned and wanted to know if I had the stomach flu. I said: “no sweetie, I am just pregnant.” 4teen looked at me in horror and asked: “You what?” and I repeated that I was pregnant and he went bananas as in nuts as in crackers and as in out of control! The look on the face was priceless, except that in the middle of all this reality theatrical show, I started laughing and my prank was exposed. This was a good one, maybe one of my best, but that is another story.
In honor of this great day, I have found a few of my favorite pranks for Aprils fool day from the Yahoo News. You have to admit that the stories are pretty hilarious! Enjoy.

The chain said it received thousands of requests for the new burger, as well as orders for the original "right-handed" version.
