The Best in April Fool's Gags

Some major-league punkings went down today. One of them included a gag from the Weekly Dig, which proclaimed in its Daily Dig that Radiohead would be doing a free benefit for the Oxfam Cafe. They even threw in a must-see video promo.

The UMass-Boston Mass Media website also offered a cutout Mr. T mask that would help you look cool and properly pity the April Fool.

The Harvard Lampoon April Fool's was okay, if a bit obvious. They put Paris Hilton on the cover. That may have been part of the contract when they "honored" her as their woman of the year. Then again, pairing her with anything counts as one of the "Wildest Animal Fantasies." Maybe that gorilla should be running scared.

And then there's this clever little gag ...

However, the news of the New Kids on the Block reunion appears to be the truth.
