Fun with foil
That's funny...and a lot of work!
That reminds me of a time a group of us played a prank on someone we work with. It was his 40th birthday, and while a couple of us took him to lunch. The rest of them man handled (carried) his corolla and moved it to the shipping dock. There they completely shrink wrapped it. Even the underneath. You couldn't even tell what kind of car it was.
So anyways, we get back from lunch. No one is saying anything. Birthday boy is a smoker, and it was his fifth trip outside to smoke a cig when he realized it was his car sitting all neatly wrapped at the loading dock. I think he was in more shock than mad.

For the last major b-day of a office worker, the guys in shipping stretch wrapped his car and lifted it about 3' high with a forklift. Then they took and hid the keys to the forklift and left for the day. We had to loosen the hydraulic lines and let the oil spray out in order to get his car down. Big mess!

One thing I have been worried about all this time is MLB stealing what I have been typing on this computer. (You know MLB shares the info with the UN.) With a workstation like that I could chat in total confidence!!! Wait till I tell the other guys in the Art Bell chatroom!!
Peppy, do you have a catalog showing the different styled foil hats you make?
Propellerhead, if he is not home yet and you can get into his house. Remove all the labels from the cans of food. Write a number on each can and make a list of what that can contains. Then sell him and his new bride the list back. For a fair price.
Update: The guy was totally amazed. He didn't say much other than "Wow!" He wasn't mad or anything. Just amazed. He unwrapped just a few pieces and got right into his work. Still in shock. He didn't really care to know who did it. He was cool with it.
Later that day, he continued to unwrap the rest of the stuff and proceeded to make an aluminum foil ball. He decided to leave some of the items in their foil wrapper. He was really impressed with the level of detail that some people put in. When I left yesterday, the ball was already larger than a standard basketball and he still had two walls to unwrap. In the end, it was great clean non-destructive fun.
That's a wrap!

good harmless prank, like seeing these non destructive things, reminds me of my senior prank at our high school.......a bunch of guys stole a bunch of orange traffic barrels and sandbags and placed them on the school, in the courtyard, in front of the school, and even stuck one on top of the flag pole.....i'll never forget the words of my SRO when he was trying to get the one off the flag pole.....running a broom up the pole and realizing it wasn't long enough, he says......"I think I may need a bigger stick".....great days, wow, I miss HS......no, wait, no I don't, I'm in college
