Lori Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Somewhere, Sidd Finch and Olof Pilar are smiling today... A gift to you: http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/aprilfool/ (Be warned, though -- it's running slow today, for some unknown reason.) #1 is pure genius: #1: The Swiss Spaghetti HarvestIn 1957 the respected BBC news show Panorama announced that thanks to a very mild winter and the virtual elimination of the dreaded spaghetti weevil, Swiss farmers were enjoying a bumper spaghetti crop. It accompanied this announcement with footage of Swiss peasants pulling strands of spaghetti down from trees. Huge numbers of viewers were taken in, and many called up wanting to know how they could grow their own spaghetti trees. To this question, the BBC diplomatically replied that they should "place a sprig of spaghetti in a tin of tomato sauce and hope for the best."

Just Jack Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I like how the story was found out.... "Former USC co-ed Cinnamon Rogers is to be Leinart’s partner, both she and Leinart confirmed. Her identity was learned the same way Leinart’s decision came to light: This reporter’s daughter, Jane Celizic, a sophomore at the University of Albany, heard rumors of the story through an online acquaintance she had met at myspace.com. The online friend said she is the niece of a friend of one of Rogers’ sorority sisters who let the news slip after six Jagermeisters and three car bombs while on spring break in Cancun. Although the story seemed farfetched, Jane told her father, who began making inquiries and finally confirmed the story through Leinart." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
