So what have you done today? (April fools)

Sign in to disble this ad
Today I announced on faceboook that I was moving me family to hildale utah for a better job and because I found a great church.

Hildale utah is where Warren Jeffs was charged with statutory rape and had 60+ wives...


Things I have noticed:

Google likes Topeka today...
Some GA representative thinks Guam is going to tip over into the ocean because of the population...

I noticed Google's new 'Translate for Animals'.

The Guardian had an excellent article about Labour's new advertising campaign for the upcoming election, complete with a selection of posters.




Also, Moog's new MF-401 Auto De-tune.

Anyone spotted any other musical april fools around?

I usually give my students the old "following directions quiz" thats kind of a trick quiz where if you DON'T follow directions then you find yourself yelling out things like "I AM THE MASTER OF FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS!" and whatnot. They're 4th graders so most of them fall for it and get a laugh out of it.

"One of the most popular features, sure to strike a chord with the floating voter, is that the roundel can be replaced in a matter of seconds should the opposition suddenly seem more appealing"

"Ha ha ha, good one, I wasn't expecting that, but you got me!"

and walked out continuing to laugh.

I told my students that if you had an F in my class you're being transferred to the County facility. I had some girls nearly in tears publically crying out that they'll make up all their work. Kept them going for a good ten minutes, before I announced April Fools.
