Haha, good advice.  :)

I've never been really good at making up jokes, but this one time something just clicked!  It was great!!

 So,

Me: "Hey guys (mom and dad, dad is not easy to convince, so this was triply awesome), did you know that play-dough was originally used to cure toothaches?"

Them:  "Really?  Wow, that's interesting, it makes sense..."

I was trying so hard not to crack up.  When I finally said April Fool's, they were absolutely shocked.  It was hilarious!  And they don't do stuff like that to humor me, they actually thought it was the truth!!!!  Isn't that great?  Ooh, I was so proud of myself.  *eyes glaze over in reminiscence* 

Ah, the glory days.  We still talk about that one, and they always tell me how much they really thought it was true.  hee hee hee!

Ok, it may not sound that good reading it, but honestly, it was perfect!!!!  If you use it though, you have to give me credit!!!  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D  I keep hoping I'll come up with another really good one, but so far nothing's popped up.  :)

Pranking people is fun.  My mom, me, and my sisters have pranked my dad a month late before.  It was raining really hard, and there was lightning.  Dad was at the grocerie store and I had this great idea.  We turned off all the lights and lit candles.  And when dad got home it looked like we had absolutely no electricity.  So we told my dad all the lights had gone out, and to convinse him even more, I asked him, 'Did the lights go out in the store, too?'  He said no.  But then he started to call the electricity people thing.  I had to convince him not to by turning on a light.    

A prank that me, mom, and my sisters pulled on my grandmother for April fool's:  my mom called my grandma on the phone.  She made up this story that I had registered her house for that house-fancifying show.  She said that I hadn't told anybody at all, and that I had done it on the computer.  Grandma had been talking about her house being nice and without much stuff init for a while.  She believed mom, but didn't want anyone coming into the house.  So then we told her that it was just a prank.

A prank that me, mom, Kyle, and my sisters pulled on my dad on April fool's:  Well, there is one of our friends that do really good voices.  We got him to call my dad and tell him that he one backstage passes to see a band he really liked.  So dad kept ontalking to him and asking questions that he didn't know.  So after he got off the phone we asked dad who it was.  He said what he thought it was.  But then Autumn just said 'It was Kyle.'  

I've heard that if you put Kool-aid mix in a shower head, the water will come out colored. :D I've never been much of a prankster, though.

-EH

I love pranking people! I once put plastic dog droppings in my bathroom and then blamed my sister for it. Her friend was visiting, so it was twice as embarrassing for her. It took her a while to figure out it was fake.

Another time, I spilled invisible ink on my mom while she was wearing a fancy white blouse. She thought it was real so...yeah....that did not go too well.

Ooh, and my favorite: I have this fake head, you know, the kind where you clip it to the table and style the hair. I never use it for that, though. Anyway, I rigged it up in this way so that when someone walks into the room, it swings right into their face. It is SO funny...for me. Definetly not for the person who walks in.

On April Fool's Day, I switched the cereal bags around, so when my brother poured into his bowl what he thought was Captain Crunch, raisin bran came out. He actually started crying.

Here's an awesome prank.

Tell someone you're doing a magic trick. Fill up a cup with water, drop a coin in, and hold it to the ceiling with a broom handle. Ask the person to hold the broom. Then run out of the room. Heehee, now they have no way to get the cup down without spilling the water on top of themselves.
