    Got me too! You know, this story was not as outrageous and unbelievable as some of the true stories that are posted on here, so I found it plausible. I'm going to nomintate Steve as a panelist on "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me". (An NPR new show on which the panelists make up news stories and have callers try and identify which one is truen and which ones are not.)

    I will be showing it to the two ladies who will be coming for Science co-op today. A day late, but they'll appreciate it anyway. I'll be sure to tell them that it was "news posted yesterday".

    LOL!! You got me! It was so believable! Awesome joke. My hubby is laughing at me right now because I was so outraged over this and couldn't wait till he got home to tell him what Obama was trying to do now. LOL!! I'll bet you already have something planned for next year. :)

    Ok, I am slow on the uptake sometimes, and of course, I am just now reading this on April 3rd (good excuse-huh?). But, that being said, when I went to the link and saw the cute picture, I was waiting for something else to load up-wondering how the picture was related to this issue. I hope I am not the only one-oh well. I have always been very gullible.

    I did play a small prank on someone else at work. I walked up to her and very quietly asked her if she knew she had a hole in her pants. Not very original, but she started pulling her shirt down-I didn't let her worry too long.

    Rachael put double -stick tape onto the squirt water thing on our kitchen sink. Her dad was in the bathroom. Then she came to me and asked, "Do you think Daddy's in a good mood?" Why....? "Because I'm going to ask him to get me a drink of water from the sink when he gets out...." I couldn't understand why his being in a good mood should matter. Then she explained what she had done. I looked at her, told her he was in a fine mood, but I sure wasn't going to be anywhere near! Carl took it very well. He was TOTALLY unsuspecting!!!
