Why It Didn't Happen
For Those Who Know Me Best. Yes I Am Referring To April Fools Day. As I Blogged Awhile Back That I Planned To Have One Of My Biggest Practical Jokes Ever. I Gave No Names, So Everybody Was A Target. So Today I Reveal Who The Target Was As Well As What Was Going To Happen. I Guess I Should Tell You First Why It Did Not Happen. I Suppose Cost Had A Lot To Do With It. This Practical Joke Would Have Cost Me $90.00. That Makes It Unpractical To Me.
This Years Target Was Non Other Than My Brother Tuck. Two Reasons I Chose Tuck This Year. First Off Tuck's Favorite Word Is Free! Anything That Comes His Way That Is Free Will Most Likely Become A Reality.
Tuck Does Not Like The Dentist. However There Was One Particular Dentist Who Tuck Went To Before Leaving Danville For California. I Don't Think Tuck Had A Pleasant Moment But Atleast This Dentist Calmed His Nerves To The Point It Was Tolerable For Tuck. He Still Has A Practice Here And The Plan Was Going Into Motion.
I Needed Two People To Help Me. Finding People Tuck Didn't Know Would Be A Challenge Since We Have Somewhat The Same Circle Of Friends. I Had A Couple People Already Lined Up And Ready To Go. I Needed Two Of My Co-Conspirators To Be In The Waiting Room Before Tuck Arrived.
Let Me Back Up A Notch. I Was Going To Send A Free Teeth Cleaning Offer From That Particular Dentist After His Regular Schedule Clients Were Completed For That Day.
Reminder, Tuck Likes Free!
Once Tuck Arrives, My Two Co-Conspirators Would Be Be Sitting In The Waiting Room. Their Job Is To Have Small Talk With Each Other. One Of Them Is There To Have Their Teeth Cleaned. The Other One Is There Just For Moral Support For His Friend.
It Was Going To Be Pretty Much Scripted, Yet The Jest Of It Being The One Who Had The Appointment Was Scared Of Dentists. His Friend Assured Him Cleaning Was Not Painful And His Visit Would Go Smoothly.
Of Course Tuck Will Be Listening To This Conversation Before This Persons Name Would Be Called. While Having This Conversation His Friend Is Fiddling With His Cell Phone. Actually The Friend Is Filming Tuck And His Friend Before His Name Is Called.
Once His Name Is Called Everything Else Falls Into Place. The Friend Continues To Fiddle With His Cell Phone(Filming Tuck)After His Friend Goes In To See The Dentist. I Am Within Earshot Of The Waiting Room. I Have A Circular Saw And A Power Drill In My Possession. First I Will Fire Up The Circular Saw On A Piece Of Wood. I Begin By Cutting Through The Piece Of Wood. Of Course By Doing This The Conspirator Is Hollering His Head Off In Pain. I Would Cut Some More As He Would Holler Out And Tell The Dentist He Is There Just For Teeth Cleaning. Keep In Mind That Is Why Tuck Is There. The Camera Is On Tuck While All This Is Going On. The Drill Goes On Into A Piece Of Wood As He Hollers Out In Pain Again.
Now At This Point In Time I'm Not Sure If Tuck Will Still Be In The Waiting Room. It Was Agreed Upon We Would Stop Our Shenanigans If Tuck Got Up And Walked Out. Of Course Under Those Kinds Of Circumstances You Never Know For Sure How It Is Played Out. Even Though It's Scripted On Our End You Never Know How It's Going To End Up.
All In All Tuck Was Going To End Up With A Pain Free Teeth Cleaning, And I Would Have Yet Another Successful April Fool Prank. It Was The $90.00 Fee That Kept It From Becoming A Reality.
There Is Always Next Year.
