Sometimes it was just a Fimble in your chair
We used to have an inflatable alien who would appear in people's chairs. I don't know what happened to him. Probably went back to the (inflatable) mother ship.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap -- Amtrak isn't running south from Boston, because the flooding in Rhode Island is so bad. I'm glad (a) I'm not in the middle of a flood, and (b) I don't have a train ticket for today! Or yesterday. Or possibly tomorrow.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I don't mind the ones that are, say filling up someone's desk area with rubber chickens or something, as long as you do it on a day when the rubber chicken guy doesn't have a big meeting or a lot to do. A lot of practical jokes seem to be center on convincing someone something really bad is happening, and I really hate that!

Has anybody heard from CV? Little worried.
And rightly so as it turned out!
Welcome baby, Luna! May this be all the trouble you ever cause your dear, achey Mom.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, I don't think it's funny to cause people great anxiety for no reason.

My thoughts on April Fools may be colored by the fact that by two best friends in High School played a month long practical joke on me-- One of them was a boy I liked and the joke they played was that the two of them were secretly sleeping together, and I needed to keep their secret, and the boy told me all about it in great detail on the phone every night, because he just needed someone to talk to. And then he called me on April Fools Day, said "April Fools" and hung up. I actually think now, knowing what I do, that it actually wasn't a joke, and he used April Fools to get out of it, but at the time, I was absolutely devasted, because I felt like our whole friendship was a lie.

This is funny (I'm assuming it's an April Fools Day joke) Tell Me Your Secrets Bear
It would be highly disturbing if real....

But does it roll down stairs, alone or in pairs? No!
