OT: Poisson d\'Avril
 

OK, those crazy newspeople have got me twice already, and it's still not April first at this longitude.
Here's the clean one.
and I'm not posting the second one.

I'm not reading any news sources tomorrow. Uh-uh. No way. I've had enough. I only want to hear about the latest news on SE5 ... oh, no ... no ... it couldn't be.

I was wondering what fish had to do with Avril Lavigne.

Re: OT: Poisson d\'Avril
 

Fish are related to the origins of April Fool's (which originated in France)... I forget how exactly, but Google can inform the curious. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Don't worry, the news on SE5 is real. Look, it was posted the 2 days before April 1 !!

the local news around here had a fake paul martin coming on saying that at 07:20 AM EST. Danish troops fired upon Canadian troops on the disputed island.

Then they went along with it.

Had a bush impersonater come on at the 8 am news to state that this needed to be resolved immediatly with the world court system since were both nato members...

Rather funny.

P.S.

there actually is a conflict brewing over this small rocky island... just no one knows about it around here except me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
