April Fool, that's me.

Completely wasted a perfectly good April 1st Fool's Day without a single prank and I'm feeling it now. Feeling all lamo for skipping one of the better Holidays (if you can call it that) to come out of this mess we call humanity.

In another dimension - one without April Fool's Day - I'd be complaining about all the boring holidays we have and how everyone is too goddamned serious and damnit, we need a silly holiday. We need to be more silly.

And here it is, April Fool's Day, right in front of my face and I waste it.

Got pranked, though. Was told someone was pregnant. Not a biggy except she shouldn't be pregnant in her situation and that threw me for a loop and made me worry a little for her and then they completely ruined it all by telling me it was a prank.

"April Fools"

Yah, well.. keep it going numbass. I bought it hook-line-and-sinker and I was ready to eat more, whatever you fed me, but no.. you ruined it. Killed the buzz off early.

People are gullible. Gullible enough to believe gullible isn't in the dictionary and gullible enough to believe that the U.S. is changing all it's money from green to blue and that Bush is a good president. No joke..

They're all fools..

The only problem is when April 2nd rolls around no one is helping them see the joke. They just keep living it.

Wake up people. Smell the coffee, drink some roses. Open your eyes. See the prank.

I'm personally getting pretty sick of this prank they're pulling in the White House. At first it was funny. You know, throw a dumby up there behind the podium with some goofy ears stickin out all Alfred E. Newmanesque and have him say some dumb things. They probably thought that was a riot, in the cabinet. They were all right behind the doors to the press room snickering like schoolboys about the joke they were playing but out front the journalists were carrying on like everything was normal.

Pretty soon the snickering stopped and they all looked around at eachother and then, after the realization, after they figured out that gullible really was in the dictionary.. well they started laughing real good. That's when they discovered a joke - a prank - doesn't necessarily have to be found out. Sometimes the best jokes are played out on the unsuspecting and, in fact, never discovered. Unknowing victums, they found, were pretty damn funny in their own right.

So then they said to themselves: "So why not make a whole nation of unknowing victums? We'll keep this monkeybutt we have in the White House - they seem to be eating him right up - and then we'll head off to war so we can play with our new toys. We'll spend their money mercilessly on everything under the sun until the unknowing victums are so far in debt they couldn't see the top of the hole with a 40 foot ladder. Then we'll laugh all the way to the bank."

And like all good practical joksters, they followed through.
