I've already been fooled once. Great fun and embarrassment. It seems the most successful jokes plays on people's greed: Promise them something free, and they'll be to busy scrambling to get it to think twice. I've always laughed of people falling for these jokes, greedy little bastards that they are, but this time, a combination of me completely forgetting which day it is and ... well, greed, really, made me swallow it hook, line and sinker. Oh well.

What might be a lot worse is the fact that after having been fooled thoroughly, I've guessed every outrageous story in the paper is another joke. They can't seriously mean that?! What the... This is to horrible, it has to be a joke...
Sadly, though, I'm afraid a lot of these stories are factual. I hope not, but unless all the papers I read have 3-4 jokes today, bad stuff has happened and people in power are bastards. Damn.

On a completely unrelated topic:
A dear friend of ours, martinemonster, has hurriedly decided to permanently vacate the country. She has asked me to announce that as she is unable to take her stuff with her, it's all up for grabs. 45hasle and yours truly have already secured the best stuff for ourselves, but there's still some nice items left, including most of her wardrobe. Run up to Sinsen and see if you find anything you'd like!

Also, I've just won the lottery. As my calculations indicate that I'll only need 90%, or about 18 million of the money (in Kroner), I've decided to give the rest away evenly amongst the people who'll visit me later today (after five pm) completely naked and able to tell me how much money all such visitors will get to share.
