April fools from around the world

Rather than starting a tradition of running our own lame April Fools gags here at barnson.org, I’d like to see what funny things you’ve managed to collect from around the net on this special day. There are a zillion out there. What are your favorites?

My submissions

Here’s my contribution:
- RFC proposing morality-based Internet routing
- Open-Source Development League recruits Paris Hilton for exposure
The ones below are actually serious news articles that I found hilariously funny this morning:
- Ms. Wheelchair stripped of title for standing up. According to event promoters, the fact she could stand meant she wasn’t handicapped enough to be Ms. Wheelchair
- Pat Buchanan Doused with Salad Dressing. The funniest thing about it is the name of the town. Kalamazoo, Michigan. Just say “Pat Buchanan collossally covered in Kalamazoo campus” three times fast and try not to smile!
