Week # 6: Snake

“A funny thing to do is, if you're out hiking and your friend gets bitten by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going to go for help, then go about ten feet and pretend that you got bit by a snake. Then start an argument with him about who's going to go get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke.” ... Jack Handy

Week # 5: An Evening

An Evening that I cannot forget! He came with the children and we went to the beach. The sun was setting in the background. The sky had all the colors in it – the red, the orange and the yellow seemed more than just colors in the background of the black. I could only see their stature, as the light was dying. That was a wonderful sight – a sight I will always miss seeing again.

Week # 3: April Fool's Day

April Fools' Day or All Fools' Day, although not a holiday in its own right, is a notable day celebrated in many countries on April 1. The day is marked by the commission of hoaxes and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friends, family members, enemies, and neighbors, or sending them on fool's errand, the aim of which is to embarrass the gullible. Traditionally, in some countries, the jokes only last until noon: someone who plays a trick after noon is called an "April Fool". Elsewhere, such as in Ireland, France, and the USA, the jokes last all day. (from Wikipedia)
