Olaf Lipro's Polo Flair

Thursday, March 29, 2007

What do the Swiss spaghetti harvest, the tiny Indian Ocean nation of San Serriffe, Alaska's volcanic Mount Edgecumbe, a subatomic particle called the bigon, the tomb of Socrates, and a 168-mph fastball hurler named Sidd Finch have in common? All are among the Top 100 April Fool's Day Hoaxes as compiled by the online Museum of Hoaxes. Among my favorites are numbers 7, 14, 20, 36, 46, 59, 71 and 78.

Also from the same site, the Top 10 Worst April Fool's Day Hoaxes. Just in time to inspire you for Sunday.

Today's topic stolen from Mark Evanier.
