Let's hear your favorite April Fool's prank

I was reading some today and this one struck me as particularly funny: Parents, sneak into your children's room at night and quietly switch them to each other's beds. Just make sure you're there when they wake up, so you can reap the reward.

And one I liked to use on new computer techs that I hired: On the prankee's computer, do a print screen of their desktop, and paste into paint as a bmp; then hide all of their desktop icons out of view. Change the desktop wallpaper to be the bmp of the screen shot. Then hide the start bar by dragging it out of sight. When they try to do anything on their computer, it will appear as if it's locked up, because they are trying to click icons that aren't actually there. But even a reboot won't fix it, because the wallpaper still just looks like their normal desktop.

I've done this one successfully a number of times. Even a good technician takes awhile to figure it out.

What are some that you've done or heard about?
