- A dime fits perfectly as a cap on a shower head. Unscrew the head, put dime on the pipe put the top back on - VERY difficult to figure out.
- Take the bar of soap in the shower and coat it with clear nail polish. They won't generate a bubble.
- Shoe polish, paste version, on the back of any doorknob; don't use too much and they won't feel it. Unseen and messy, for an added bonus, tell the victim they have something on their face after opening the door.
- With the 'right' type of drawers, you can remove them, put a thick piece of cardboard or hard plastic on top, turn them upside-down, put them back in on the track, remove the temporary lid and wait.
- Go into the sock drawer and switch out every pair with a mismatched color and/or length. For added foot focus, fill the toes of shoes with some shaving cream.
- Unscrew but don't remove every light bulb.
- Next up breakfast, in a multi cereal household, switch the bags from inside the boxes.
- Make up a few caramel/nut coated onions as a 'treat' to send with them to work or school.
- Cellophane on the top of the toilet is a fun way to start they day. Depending on the organization of the victim, removing every piece of paper in the bathroom and towels, adding to the shower and soap trick, and you have a perfect way to start the day on April 1.
Of course, those were tricks of my youth. A couple of years ago I staged an acquisition and sent out a detailed memo to my department managers advising them that they were enrolled and scheduled to report, to a total immersion Hindi language school starting tomorrow. I said I acquired a India based 'help center' and was going to off-source all customer service. I told them they would have to live in Delhi at first, but told them I wanted included in their business plan a relocation of the operation to a more remote area to cut down on salary and overhead expenses. I said that the acquired company's $5/week base salary for a 6 day 12 hour workweek, could be cut in half by relocating to a more remote area. I suggested that the 'BEST' manager would have the "opportunity" of permanent relocation. They were told to read the entire memo and provide me with a detailed business plan by the end of the day, including who should be considered to replace them. The bottom of the memo, dated April 1, said 'Carpe Diem'.
I can't disclose tomorrow's plans!
Oh yeah, I forgot one of my favorites. Take an old leash and attach it to the back bumper. For added effect, put a little ground meat and fur around the harness collar, and then drive past a few people in the 'Pets Mart' or 'Petco' parking lots.
