better than mr. lyon, for the zoo, i think, is ms. ella font.
one of the best pranks i've ever heard of wasn't pulled on april fool's day. this guy worked at a large international bookstore chain, where every hour they switched stations/jobs. one of those jobs entailed just walking around the store with a phone, taking incoming calls and getting books/cd's/etc. off the shelves and holding them for the caller if they so desired. so he took this phone and called the store, thereby reaching one of his coworkers. he said he was looking for a book on "radicles," [say it rad-a-clees], "the greek god of skateboarding." this guy took it at face value and tried valiantly to find it. the caller, by this time, had kind of informed his nearby coworkers about it, because he kept repeating it, over and over, "yes, RADICLES, the GREEK GOD of SKATEBOARDING." then he had to hang up cos he was laughing too much. so he called back, and a different person answered, one who wasn't in on the joke, and he said, "i'm sorry, i just got disconnected. someone was helping me find a book on radicles, the greek god of skateboarding?" so the person who answered *that* call gets on the *all-store intercom* and says, "whoever was helping someone find a book on radicles, the greek god of skateboarding, please pick up line 4." the people in the know about the joke are of course peeing themselves at this point. so my friend keeps talking to the poor mark, and as this guy's working hard, running all over the store trying to find an appropriate book, my friend walks right up behind him, still carrying on the conversation. hilarious. |
