Interesting header image, n’est-ce pas?

I don’t know where this French tradition of sticking a fish on a schoolmate’s back came from, but I do find it amusing. We don’t do anything like that in North America. I remember in elementary school, we had a failed attempt to play a ‘trick’ which was actually just the class skipping. As I recall, we headed in not long after–I think we might have gotten bored.

The quick header image change is courtesy of a nifty little tool, Kubrickr, which grabs images from Flickr and converts them into headers. Quick and easy and perfect for slapping a fish on your website for the first day of April. Hum, I might even regularly Kubrickrize this theme. It’s fun looking through all the photos. :cheerful:

And no, you can’t change the theme for today. >D I’m evil like that.

Funny, I was just thinking about that elementary episode today. I think we felt guilty for skipping class and eventually decided to troop in. Amy was very disappointed with us.

Feeling guilty for skipping? I’m totally unfamiliar with that feeling.
