In honor of April Fools Day, I wish to remind you of a DU classic: "Oscar the mixed animal."

If you have never read it, you owe it to yourself.

All hail to DUer A-Schwarzenegger.

3. One of the greatest things I've ever read

The poster stayed on this and was hilarious for a long long long time.

4. Priceless, I laughed so hard. Take the time to read the whole thread.

Just what we all need on a day like today...or any day you need a belly laugh.

5. A blast from the past!

And the last post was from "moderator" who was worried about DUer's loading the thread on dial-up. Things have certainly changed from 2004....

7. That's fantastic. And prophetic; I saw this

Time shudders to an end.
The trump prepares to sound.
We have shattered the sky
and broken the sea.

Finally I weep.
It is over.
