REMINDER: Today is April 1st

Before the day slips away, a bit of 'edutainment' - that is, something which is both entertaining and educating, a common expectation of today's students - and humorous.

Richard's $.02


The History Of April Fools' Day Plus The Top Five Pranks Of All Time (VIDEO) (PICS)

My wife wouldn't care. Today really is her mother's birthday.

Now if today were, oh say, Halloween... She'd agree!

Well, I hope it was neither of the lateral of the three and your mother-in-law wasn't around so you could enjoy it. April Fools!

My MIL and I are cool! My father-in-law and I are going Bologna hunting this weekend, if it doesn't rain, and she'll field dress the tasty critters as usual. She's old-school New Hampshire stock.

My wife won't help because she's concerned about all the orphan weenies left running wild.

Naga Hunting

Well, I'm planning a Naga hunting trip this weekend.

The wife said the sofa is getting a bit scruffy and we need to recover it. I've heard there are still plenty of Naga's running around the Green Swamp and will start there.

Nagahide is a good low cost solution for sofa covers.
