QotD: Best Practical Joke

What's the best practical joke you've pulled or had pulled on you?
Submitted by Mike Schwartz.

This is complete proof that my family is a bunch of smart asses. For 6 months, my brother knew I wanted the iPhone and demanded he work the launch so he could sell it to me. I didn't want to deal with a salesman who was going to try to upsell me a bunch of stuff. I just wanted to come in, buy my phone, and leave. Who better to do that than my brother?

So I wait outside of the AT&T store for 8 hours on the iFriday. I get inside, Cody grabs my phone and tells me the price. I hand him my Visa and he runs the charge.

He looks up at me slowly: "Your card was declined."

My heart jumped out of my throat and I let out a massive gasp. He then started pointing and laughing at me.

"Got ya!"

My New Column

I landed a gig writing for the local paper. Each Tuesday for the foreseeable future I am going to be contributing a weekly tech column to the local paper. My goal is to write about new gadgets, software and Web services that I think are interesting and game changing. I won't be writing about how to troubleshoot your printer. :)
