~ The Making of a Fool ~

-Put love letters from a "secret admirer" in your friend's locker.

-Along with that last one, put little gifts in their locker.

-Fill the hallway or room in front of your parents room with cups of water so they can't get out without picking them all up.

-Get a quart of milk in a carton that's not see-through, dump the milk into another container, and fill that one up with orange juice. Then watch the first person up dump O.J. all over their cereal.

-Put a rubber band around the little sprayer in the kitchen sink so your mom or dad will get a nice shower when they get up to make coffee.

-Here's a great one: dump a bucket of water underneath your friend's car, then go inside and ask them how long they've had that terrible radiator leak.

-Foreign language teachers: give your students a quiz in a different language similar to yours, and watch your students give worried glances to one another.

-When you're sitting in a group-at lunch for instance-wait 'til someone gets up to get some juice, and when they come back, everyone start laughing at the person for no reason.

-Put petroleum jelly on the inside handle of the bathroom door so your mom or dad get stuck in there.

-Switch the salt and sugar, so your mom and dad put salt in their coffee and sugar on their eggs.

-Obviously, the "kick me" sign on the back of your best bud is a great gag.

-Saran Wrap on the toilet seat is always a good one.

-Temporary hair dye in the shampoo bottle.

-Sneak some chalk into the erasers so you're teacher and the class will get some nice squeaking when the teacher erases something.

-The green-dye-in-the-milk one is always a good laugh.

-Shaving cream in your brother/sisters backpack.

-Wake your sister/brother at 6:30, then watch them freak out and get ready for school, then realize it's a Sunday.

-Tell your parents you're engaged.
