Attached Link: The Museum of Hoaxes

Because I like links, from those good folks at the RefDesk: Every April Fool's Day the ritual is the same. Outrageously false stories - issued by a variety of sources such as corporations, non-profit organizations, journalists, and politicians - appear in the media. The challenge for all of us is to sort out the April Foolery from the weird stuff that's actually true. This site provides information on the origin and history of April Fool's Day along with a chronololgy and timeline of memorable hoaxes.
