I'm sure this year's April Fool's Day parade will be every bit as fabulous as all the previous ones.

Our local parade is going to have a salute to America's foreign policy, with a grand procession of all the weapons of mass destruction captured in Iraq, mounted on military trucks. Also, all the terrorists discovered by tapping our telephones without warrants will be furloughed from detention to march in a baton-twirling corps.

Have you sent a press release about your parade to all the local news outlets yet, Gary? Joey Skaggs does that every year. I got one faxed to me a few years ago when I was working as a morning drive guy on J-105 radio in Boise.

Yeah, Cranky, I thought of that, but then I realized that my employer wouldn't be crazy about me spending all day taking calls about the upcoming parade, so I decided I'd just have to rely on word of mouth for now.
