Every year, I tell myself that I’m going to make an awesome April Fools’ version of my blog, and every year I forget about it until the last minute. I remember one year, I was planning on putting sponsors all over my website. That was a long time ago, and in retrospect, it’s a lame idea. A lot of April Fools’ ideas are pretty lame, but I guess it mainly depends on how you view April 1st. For instance, I find it mildly funny that xkcd points you to Questionable Content, while Questionable Content links to Dinosaur Comics, and Dinosaur Comics links back to xkcd. I also find it funny that the Telegraph reported on flying penguins, and Google and Virgin teamed up to establish a colony on Mars (complete with a questionnaire).
Even better is YouTube RickRolling everyone who clicked on a featured video on the front page (on a related note, GameFAQs has a RickRoll poll on the front page), or College Humor getting bought by some MySpace diva. (Unfortunately, they took that down before I was able to get a screenshot and Google’s cached version is just a few hours off.)
As with every April Fools’ Day, there’s going to be funny stuff, not-so-funny stuff, and stuff that’s just weird. And then there’s stuff like Dextre the Magnificent. Actually, that did make me laugh. In a nerdy sort of way. You know, with the snort and requisite pushing up of the glasses.

I don’t quite know why I’m doing this, but perhaps it has to do with the fact that…
I AM THE BEST PERSON IN THE WORLD AND WHATEVER I SAY GOES!!!
…biatch.
…
Okay, that was completely random. Don’t look at me like that! Before I go completely batty, I’ll just list out some cool stuff that happened recently. And cool things you should check out *Jedi mind trick waving*.
-Found a half-million more webcomics to read
-Mac Hall
-Ctrl+Alt+Del
-VG Cats
-Men In Hats
-There are others, but I’m too lazy to write them all out.
-Semi-hooked up with Lindsay after Homecoming (I’m not sure what exactly constitutes hooking up these days)
-Promoted to Captain and Task Group CO on my Star Trek simm (yes, I’m a nerd like that)
-Joined two bowling leagues, one with the school
-Bought a Mountain Dew. Hell yeah!
Other stuff happened, but I can’t remember all of it through the drug-induced haze I’m in right now…I’m only kidding.
Oh, and I got back the pictures Lindsay’s mom took before Homecoming. Once I get them scanned, I’ll post ‘em up. I hope the other pics come soon. Also, I’m still trying to create a website of my own, cleverly entitled codyLOGAN (because putting my last name in all caps is the shiznit). I’m running into some problems, mostly related to content, but I hope it will have some cool info on me and stuff like that. Maybe I should start a webcomic…no, must…resist…evil…ARGH! *is glued to addictive funny random webcomics with cute fuzzy animals and bleeding*
Glee!
