I know a few years ago I was driving out in Texas and the local radio had a announcement that John Deere had decided to change the color of their tractors. The company spokesman said they decided to color them with BRIGHT colors like pink, blue, purple, red. They said it would make it easier to see them on satellites from space, since the green blends in with the earth colors.
The phone lines at the radio station lit up with outraged farmers calling to say they wouldn't be caught dead in a pink tractor... I thought that one was funny!!


On a serious note,
there is a virus going around that sends you an e-card stating "April Fools"
and then it unleashes a Trojan horse virus into your computer. Be wary of any e-cards you get.


Have fun today... Be safe... and take everything with a grain of salt today!
