More April 1 High Jinks

My Dad alerted me to another April Fools Prank. Done by none other than Google. It took me a cou­ple of sec­onds, but when I got to the Install page, it all became clear.

Good for them for spend­ing some of their bil­lions on silli­ness. The world needs more of that.

Welcome to April!

I had my first moment of ‘Oh, right, it’s that day again’ this morn­ing when I fol­lowed Tod Maffin’s link to CBC’s new Radio 4.

In the spirit of the day, I want to come clean with some­thing from my past. With all of the hoopla about the Choco­late Jesus Exhibit being can­celled, my par­ents reminded me of the fact that at my Bar Mitz­vah, we did indeed have a (*gasp*) Chopped Liver But­ter­fly. While this was not a bust of Moses, I believe that’s because the only artist who did that only worked in Hal­vah. *rim-shot*

Hon­estly, my Catholic friends, wouldn’t using choco­late wafers for Com­mu­nion be a lot bet­ter than those wafers? Never mind the prob­lem of find­ing a wine to go with it (I’ve seen some books claim that there is, in fact, no wine that will go with chocolate).

If there are those who are offended by my even men­tion­ing this sub­ject, may I have a lit­tle lat­i­tude, given the date?
