Something Fishy

My friends have way too much free time on their hands.

A couple of them have gotten together and decided to prank me, or at least try to(okay, ya got me). I started receiving random pictures of fish this morning from people I know with no subject on the email. At first (being an IT guy) I thought it was some random virus, but then when I realized I was the only person getting these “fishy” emails, it started to click. And yes, I had long figured it out when I got the email from “The Sisters.” Good one.

What’s the connection between the fish and April Fools? In France the schoolchildren have a custom on April Fools day to put pictures of fish on other kids backs, and when it’s discovered they yell out “April Fish!” (in French, of course.) French people are weird, but I think my friends are even stranger.

Here’s the pictures: (updated as I receive them)

I just got two more fish:

Okay Beatrix and Tulinda, I get it now. Very funny.

… And another. I think i’ll have seafood tonight.

I like this one:

The weirdest ones yet:

Ok Smokin, I GOT IT. (grin)

Last two, I promise.

Mwahahahaha! Actually, I tried to find more than just two fish, but the stupid e-mail got locked up after 2. I had 10 more pics that were really funny
