April Fool!

April Fool's day is a very odd phenomenon. Obviously not the day itself, that happens every year, and it would be very unusual if a year went by without the 1st of April.



Pranks. On an international scale. It's like an excuse for corporate people, people whose jobs for the entire year, excepting one day, operate with consumate professionalism. So April Fool's day offers the opportunity to be really, childishly silly.



The Telegraph reported on a BBC documentary on penguins flying, including a video. Hilarious. Apparently GMTV did a thing about a cream that makes you lose weight without having to diet or exercise. I think that's rather cruel, playing with the emotions of overweight people across the country.
