April Fools Day

I forgot it was April 1st when I woke up this morning, and TORn's article of a Hobbit trilogy completely tricked me until I went onto the forums and realized it was a joke ( Read more... )

This news article on TOR.com made me spew my coffee. :D

I liked the Google autopilot too.

LOL! That's a great article. And definitely a hoax- who in the world doesn't find Neil Gaiman amazing? :P

I saw the post on the M-e News about The Hobbit and was like WTF? Wizard school? This HAS to be a hoax! and couldn't believe M-e news was perpetuating it... then I realized what day it was and felt like an idiot for getting all worked up. *g*

I've not seen many jokes today other than that as I've been mostly off line and not in contact with people so I spent a peaceful April's Fool's day for once.

Enjoy your Spring Break!

LOL... that one sort of "halfway" got me. I was believing it but skeptical, especially when I got to "young Gandalf" and the Academy bit and the LOTR actors and their cameos. Uh, yeah... no.

Didn't see the google joke but woot.com had a good "woot of the day"... a $3 "bag of crap", with $1 million dollar shipping.

I didn't twig at all until I read your post so I'm very relieved it's not going to happen. I'm worried enough about the two that are planned as it is!

The Hobbit got me. :P

On the Lifestream.Net, there were three, two of which were very convincing. I fell for one of them. <.<

What could I go? I want the Hobbit to come out fast. The same thing for Advent Children Complete and Compilation...
