April Fool Fish's Day!

Yes, it's that dreaded day where everyone wants to make you look like an über-moron... April Fools Day.

Over in these parts, however, it's not fools, but fish. Poisson d'Avril... April Fish to be exact. The goal is to successfully tape a construction paper fish to the back of any unsuspecting victim, who will then wear the fish all day and ask himself, "Why is everyone staring and pointing? Did I rip my pants?"

Today, I'm going fish-hunting. Hopefully I'll get some nice digicam shots.

I found nobody with paper fishes. I think next year I will go out earlier... at 3pm I guess most people have already found their fish and taken it off. heh ;)

My daughter's French teacher did that to someone at school on 1 April this year. And I knew all about the tradition, because I read your post. Now they think I'm smart.
