This is the practical joke, the outcome of a prank.
As it happened to be April Fool Day,
and there happened to be
a large bowl of walnuts on the table,
the thought grabbed me
to take some loose walnuts,
open up a few of them,
and glue them back together
with a small paper note placed inside.
My Dad was fond of eating walnuts.
Months later Dad came to me scratching his head.
“A most unnatural thing has occurred,” he said.
“As I was cracking open walnuts,”
“a small paper note came out instead.”
“And on the small paper note it said:”
“April Fool, ha, ha, ha!”
“Do you know anything about it?”
“No.”
...MONTHS LATER, HUH? TOO BAD. I GUESS HE WASN'T AS FOND OF THEM AS YOU THOUGHT OR...HE JUST DIDN'T PICK THE RIGHT ONES? IN ANY CASE, IT'S ALMOST THAT TIME AGAIN YOU CAN TRY YOUR HAND AGAIN ON SOMEONE ELSE...MAYBE? THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Sometimes a prank is not timely enough. My brother tells the story where he was hired by a small company just before Christmas, just before the consulting firm he worked for dissolved. He told me that he had an office with a computer (something rare at that time) and ate lunch with the president. Everything was going fine until April 1. On that day, the boss delivered a pink slip to his desk. My brother asked, “is this an April fool?”
