    What type of practical jokes are you looking for?  Spouse, family,
    co-workers or what?  My sister is queen of the practical jokes and
    believe me she has proven to be the best.
    
    Let me  know what you're looking for and I'll pass some on to you.

    Put scotch tape over the contacts in the mouthpiece of
    their phone.
    
    
    Superglue their mouse to their desk.
    
    
    Remove the mouse from the terminal and replace with a rubber rat.

    Dear Mr. So and so,
    
    Your name recently appeared on a list of sexual partners of
    a patient of ours.  It is our duty to inform you that you 
    have been exposed to Herpes Complex II.  You should make
    an appointment with your family physician or a center for
    sexually transmitted diseases at your earliest convenience.
    
    
    Sincerely,
    
    Dr. So and so
    Such and Such Clinic.

And the cry goes out... "why you little so and so" 8^)
307.12MKOTS3::SEIFERTMon Mar 13 1995 21:4011
    No,no,no.....Those are spiteful...I don't hate him but I don't actually
    care for him either....We just slag each other back in forth...It
    actually has become a rather fun game....I have to admit that I like
    the one about him being a terriorist especially since he is Irish and
    a big IRA supporter however I think I could be arrested for making a false
    statement like that to the police even though he is in the country
    illegally.  An no, I'm not calling imigration either.
    
    Go an creative ideas?

307.16RANGER::REITHMon Mar 13 1995 21:502
Yes, a "going" away present of a tin of Exlax-chip cookies. this is very
effective since I saw it done to a friend. 8^)
307.17NETCAD::WOODFORDAppease Belligerents.Mon Mar 13 1995 21:518
    
    
    Yup, even if he comes back, he'll still be 'going'.  :*)

307.18MKOTS3::SEIFERTMon Mar 13 1995 21:514
    Oooo, I like that one! Now I'll just have to think of a way of getting
    them to him before he leaves.

    RE: .22
    
    Well, the cookies won't get you arrested unless you put enough
    in there for him to overdose on. :*)
    
    Hmmmmm...let me think.  I need some background info...do you have
    access to his home?  His phone?  His place of employment?
    
    You could call someone he works with and tell them it's his birthday
    and ask them to plan a big surprise birthday party for him. :*)
    
    Does he have an internet account?  you could post his internet address
    and we could all send him piles of e-mail wishing him farewell. :*)
    
    You could fill his mailbox with plastic spiders.
    
    Is he involved in any outside activities?  Have someone call and leave
    a message that there is an important meeting of the team/group/etc. at
    some place several miles from where he lives, and give some really wild
    directions on how to get there, that end up getting him nowhere.
    
    
    Give me some time, and some more info to work with, and I'm sure I can
    come up with more.

    I've been sick for several days, and I think the fever is 
    finally eating away at my brain.  I would never ever actually
    DO any of this to anyone (Oh,right!)

307.42I got caught properly!MEOC02::CASEYDon@MEO-MEO78B::CASEY-DTN7393414Sat Apr 01 1995 10:3526
    I was quietly going about getting dressed in our bedroom here this
    morning. Suddenly, from out in our lounge room I could hear a voice
    yelling "DON!! DONN!!! Come quick!! HURRY!!"
    
    I happened to be in my singlet and undepants at the time.
    
    "What's wrong??" I said.
    
    "There's a pelican perched on top of the Mitsubishi!!" said Christine.
    
    "Really? Get the camera.. QUICK!!" I said.
    
    Christine left the lounge room while I crouched down on all fours and 
    looked out to see if I could catch sight of the pelican on top of the 
    Mitsubishi.
    
    Suddenly, from behind me, simultaneous with me realising that the
    pelican must have taken flight, echoed the chorus of our family..
    
                            "YOU BIG APRIL FOOL!!"
    
    I felt such a fool.

What a great story!!!! I can see the "sequence" in all bright colours.

Hihihihihohohohohhahahahahehehehehuhuhuhu!!!!!!

Unfortunately nobody can "have" me today, I'm here at work.

But.... I remember.... some years ago.... my mom told me that she has 
bought 3 bars of chocolat at the groceries and told me exactly where
she put them. And they happened to be my favourites. "But Martina,"
she said "please stay away from going to the cupboard before lunch.
I don't want you to binge chocolate before then." "Ok, Mom," I answered,
"no problem, I'm a big girl, I can control my cravings and wait."
She nodded and seemed to be satisfied. Then she went on with her
daily housework routine. But she kept an eye on me.
Because..... everybody knows it.... I *LOVE* chocolate!!!!!.....
I waited anxiously for her to leave the kitchen area. Finally! She
went outside the house into the garden, probably to fetch some
vegetables for lunch. 
NOW!!!! It's either now or never!!!! So I silently carefully stepped
into the kitchen, turned around, good! nobody was there. I could
here my little brother laughing outside. 
I perched towards the cupboard.... another hasty look over my
shoulders..... THEN!!!!
I opened the doors.......
NOTHING!!!!!! Damned!!!!! Where was the chocolate??????
I opened another cupboard, .....
Again, no chocolate.
Now I used some German swearwords and opened all doors, one after
another, but....
NO CHOCOLATE!!!!!   "Himmelkreuzdonnerwetternochmal!!!!"
("Heavencrossthunderweatheragain!!!!")

Suddenly I turned around and..... saw my mom and my little brother
standing outside at the window and....
laughing at me.

         April Fool!!!!! April Fool !!!!!

Well, now I knew better.  ;)

    We walked out to the parking lot, and I got very upset!  
    Someone had hit my car!  Holly looked at me puzzled.
    I said it again, even more upset, and walking towerds it.
    As she started to follow, I turned around with a big smile,

    I got my friend Heidi GOOD on Saturday!  I called her house from Ann
    Many's place.  I got her answering maching and left a very convincing
    message basically saying "I'm Pregnant".  She's been pumping me for
    quite a while asking WHEN I'm going to get pregnant.
    
    Well, she fell for it... hook, line, and sinker!  She called my house
    (I was at Ann's making chocolates all night) and left a congratulatory
    message, all excited because she's going to be an "auntie".  She told
    me to call her up to 1:00 am.  well, I got home right around that
    time.. I called her and she sleepily answered.. All I said was "April
    Fool!!!"  She was quite upset with me and told me that her whole family
    will be upset that "Holly isn't going to have a kitten".  haha!!!
