Worth remembering that Ohio State made the top 10 College Pranks of all time for this April Fools Joke - which refuses to die.

"Arm the Homeless"

[SIZE=+1]Arm the Homeless[/SIZE]

In the first week of December 1993 a press release was distributed to the Columbus, Ohio news media innocently announcing the formation of a new charity to benefit the homeless. There was just one catch. Instead of providing the homeless with food and shelter, this charity would provide them with guns and ammunition. It was named 'The Arm the Homeless Coalition.'

The press release declared that "The Arm the Homeless Coalition will be collecting donations to provide firearms for the homeless of Columbus." These firearms would "provide desperately needed protection for America's disadvantaged." The release ended on a cheery note: "Santas will be at area malls collecting money for this vital and charitable cause." A photograph accompanying the release showed a man in a santa suit waiting to accept donations. The media were instructed to address their queries to Jack Kilmer, the Coalition's director.

It didn't take long for this press release to stir up a hornet's nest of controversy. The Columbus Dispatch denounced the new Coalition in an angrily-worded article. Then the Charitable Solicitations Board of Columbus, inspired by the Dispatch article, fired off a cease-and-desist letter to the Arm the Homeless Coalition, forbidding them from engaging in any fund-raising activities. But things really began to heat up when the Associated Press managed to obtain an interview with the mysterious Jack Kilmer, who defended the Coalition's goal of arming the homeless by asking, "Who more needs to exercise their constitutional right to have a weapon for protection?" Soon newspapers throughout Ohio, as well as national media such as CNN and Rush Limbaugh, were covering the story.

When I was 12, I caddied at Winding Hollow (now the City of Columbus Champions course. Being so much smaller than the other kids, I returned every day from my first carry to find that my lunch had been eaten by the bigger kids.

For two weeks, I packed peanut butter and Hesheys sandwiches. Then, I substituted peanut butter and Ex-Lax. Apparently, the two kids who split my sandwich were ducking into the bushes the entire next round they carried.

I was stuck eating peanut butter and chocolate sandwiches but nobody ever ate my lunch again.

So here is mine that will happen shortly.

A girl that I hang with socially in my office tried to get me this morning on the phone... I didn't even flinch. So I tell her, let's tell my CEO, that we've been seeing each other since I moved to Boston...and that we were planning on getting married and we were planning to elope in several weeks...yada yada. Well she's already told half the office and they love it.

Well, little does she know... that the prank will be on her. I already told my CEO, and he's going to turn it around and fire us for improper office conduct and then lying.

Of course... if the boss instead brings in a "fake" minister to make it all legal, the joke might be on you. :p

Meanwhile, his CEO tells his wife...

"You'll never believe this - I'm finally going to get rid of those two deadbeats in one fell swoop, and one of them is handing me the axe today." :p

So, the joke kinda blew up. She still doesn't even realize the joke was on her. We got into the whole we're thinking about getting married, maybe Vegas, thinking about a ring bit. He's like... well this really isn't good. I can't have this go on in this company, one of you has to go and she would be the choice because I'm too much of an asset to the company right now.

Well she thought that he was on to it, and broke down and called him out that he knew what was going on... we all just chuckled and he and I exchanged a look as we shook our heads. That's the abbreviated version but it lasted a good 4-5 mins.
