The April Fool's web sites are an all-year-round project: Coming up with the concepts, getting a web design layout and then starting on the Images and the content.  I could do just One (1) web site a year, but that was so '05-'06.  For 2009 we processed 25 orders and received 10 inquiries for information.  The answer to the question is after (18) Eighteen April Fool's web sites; Can I still get the clueless, can I still make someone think and question the validity of the idea and be unaware of the Date (04/10)....The Answer is YES I Can!!!

I was also responsible for the April Fool's piece on the Burning Man web site which really drew quite a fire-storm.  Please enjoy all the comments, accolades and I Got YOU'S!!!!

Gerlach/Empire Nevada get assistance in Securing Economic Stimulus Money
  With Billions of dollars floating around for construction projects, the Burning Man Project has teamed up with the cities of Gerlach & Empire Nevada to stake their claim in the massive highway funds being distributed by the US Government. Support is mounting in the area for a 4 lane Toll Road Bypass for travelers heading North of NV440. During the three week festival season each August these towns are inundated with so called 'Burners'.
   
  "They appear friendly enough on the outside", says a long-time Gerlach resident. "But they will piss in your yard if you do not keep an eye on them." Sentiments like this from other area home owners has this legislation on the fast-track.
   
  Currently NV440 winds its way thru the streets of both Gerlach & Empire, the proposal is to construct a bypass that will spare the locals from any Burner intrusions. All vehicles will be required to pay a $20 fee to get to the entrance of the Black Rock Desert. Approx. $.69 of each toll collected will be distributed amongst the locals to compensate for the predicted 34% drop in local sales tax collections. Alternate plans being considered allow for the creation of a Business Loop Frontage Road so local establishments like Bruno's and the Empire General store can remain in business.
