I fell completely for your April Fool’s joke, worried about you all weekend, and was going to suggest to you today that you quit your job and make us all subscribe to your site so that you could blog to your (and our) heart’s content and make a living from it!

Cheers though, and I hope to get you back next year (with knobs on)!

Actually, apparently it was the Swiss spaghetti harvest and the whole story can be found here

http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/aprilfool/

where it is listed as the number 1 April fools hoax of all time. I just thought I would share …

I wonder if you’ve ever heard of the famous April 1 spoof that the BBC pulled one year, I think in the late 50′s or early 60′s. In a video feature, they described the great Italian spaghetti harvest complete with Italian women picking spaghetti from the spaghetti “trees”. It was quite believable, and of course, once you were in on the joke, quite hilarious, too. Quite a few people were fooled by this one. It became legendary.

You got me. So did my daughter yesterday, she came down to tell me that her sister peed in her bed. I stormed upstairs all ready to start cleaning up… I’m so gullible! That’s me!
