Pranks

I can neither confirm nor deny that I have taken part in any of the following pranks pulled by Lee Harvey Oswald.

-stuffed pick-up truck with newspaper and balloons, wrapped truck in Saran Wrap then stuck Oreos on it, then wrapped truck with toilet paper.

-stole Pez dispenser from friend, sent Pez dispenser on world wide tour, returned Pez dispenser along with a photo album of trip and a road trip mix tape.

-decorated office with Pez and tootsie rolls. Hopefully recipient is still finding tootsie rolls even today.

-taped butcher paper over door frame, filled space between paper and door with popcorn.

-placed Harry Potter banner wishing recipient a Happy 40th Birthday. Banner held up by brooms. By the way, recipient hates Harry Potter.

-place large silhouette of Charlie's Angels and speaker box on lawn wishing recipient Happy 40th Birthday. Recipient did not like the Charlie's Angels movie.

-wrapped El Camino in toilet paper and placed flaming bag of dog poo by driver's side door after recipient complained that Lee Harvey Oswald spent more time on other people's birthdays than their own spouse.

-"enrolled" recipient in "Dessert of the Month Club". All desserts were made of pumpkin. Recipient hates pumpkin.

-large poster of a french pig wishing recipient Happy 40th Birthday attached to fence. Recipient had served a french speaking mission, and collected pigs. Also left a stuffed pig wearing a lava lava. Recipient's spouse is polynesian.

-heart attacked recipient with hearts staked out on lawn and house. Left teddy bear with a heart as a souvenir.

-giant milk carton on lawn with a photo of "missing" recipient as they had lost their youth.

-high school photo of recipient wearing wrestling unitard published in local paper wishing recipient Happy 40th Birthday.

-had local businesses wish recipient Happy Birthday on their marquees.

-Filled recipient's car with 40 tribbles, and posted large sign in yard wishing Happy 40th Birthday a la Star Trek. "40, the final frontier."

-placed head of hobby horse in recipient's bed a la Godfather after recipient ratted out spouse to the recipient of Harry Potter prank.

-built graveyard on recipient's lawn a la Simpson's treehouse of horror opening. Later that day had a wake for recipient complete with coffin, black drapes covering framed pictures and mirrors, and had a small shrine of candles and pictures of recipient. Also, served funeral potatoes.

-pimped out red El Camino with brown leopard print seat covers and steering wheel cover. Pinned bright pink dingle balls along dash. Blue fuzzy dice hung from rearview mirror. Large purple pimp hat in driver's seat. Passenger seat had blow up doll wearing teal teddy and an orange sash embroidered with "Sweet Sassy Molassy".

-recipient received Happy Easter card with Easter crossed out and Birthday written in. Card had burnt edges, sticky jelly and hair stuck to it. It was place in an envelope of the wrong size. Written in card the statement that further birthday pranks would be suspended due to budgetary constraints and lack of interest.

-placed on front porch of recipient an old toilet with a flower planted in tank and a frog sitting on edge of tank holding a fishing pole. In bowl of toilet a fish.

-sent recipient 40 free catalogs ranging in interests from swimming pool accessories (recipient does not have a pool) to wine (recipient is LDS) for their 4oth birthday. Recipient saved 40 catalogs and gave back to sender as a Christmas present. (This was obviously an inside job)

-recipient plays trumpet. Left on porch a large sign wishing recipient Happy Birthday with tweaked nursery rhyme of Little Boy Blue, and a picture of girl in blue playing trumpet. Also left bag of Bugles.

Do you realize how loud duct tape is at midnight? Or for that matter how loud popcorn is against a door in February at midnight?
