What they did to me, among other things i might have personally participated in doing to others. In other words, i deserved everything i got.
The day of my four-O, i drove into my office to a custom made black flag on the flagpole for God & country to see. It was kinda a skull & crossbones, grim reaper motif, very effective. Moving on to our office entrance they somehow found my high school yearbook picture, blew it up to poster size (like the original size wasn't bad enough), taped it over a home made black coffin complete with cardboard "RIP Jon" tombstone. I'm really laughing now but i figure it's pretty much over. NOT! The "coup-de grace"
blow was dealt when i entered my office. My lights were covered in black craypaper, black ballons hung on black streamers from all over the ceiling and the proverbial helium party ballon pack with all those cool sayings hung from the floor .... look whose forty or lordy lordy look whose forty or over the hill, etc, etc.
It's really nice to be loved you know!
Black cakes made with black food coloring are easily purchased from your local bakery. For those who have never had one, they yeild a special oral cavity suprise that needs to be experienced firsthand to be appreciated.
The best prank i have participated in takes some special contacts, resources & personnel. You need a hearse and someone to play the mortician, preferably the real thing, to pull this off. The morticians ability to act with a straight face is essential. Have the hearse pull up to the victims place of work or home (the key thing is to have plenty of family, friends and/or co-workers around) and tell the "victim" they are there to pick up the "victim." If it works right the victim will stumble & stammer about how there must be a mistake, it couldn't be me, i'm still alive. If the mortician is good, which ours was excellent, he can go on about how this isn't a joke and this job is not easy you know, just give me "victim" and i'll be on my way etc, etc.
Our prank went on for almost 10 minutes & it was hilarious. It only stopped when one of the bystanders finally cracked and started laughing. As stated earlier, a creepy, good acting mortician is the key.
The best part of this prank was it was played on, and i'm not kidding here, a LDS owner. Revenge can be had & it is a dish best served cold. hehehe:devious:
