I found these tucked away. Some I've tried and some I haven't had the nerve. I've done 2, 7 and 11.
1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and point a Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down.
2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don't Disguise Your Voice.
3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, ask If They Want Fries with that.
4. Put Your Garbage Can On Your Desk And Label it 'In'.
5. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks Once Everyone has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch to Espresso.
6. In The Memo Field Of All Your Checks , Write ' For Smuggling Diamonds'.
7. Finish All Your sentences with 'In Accordance With The Prophecy'.
8. Don't use any punctuation.
9. As Often As Possible, Skip Rather Than Walk.
10. Order a Diet Water whenever you go out to eat, with a serious face.
11. Specify That Your Drive-through Order Is 'To Go'.
12. Sing Along At The Opera.
13. Go To A Poetry Recital. And Ask Why The Poems Don't Rhyme?
14. Put Mosquito Netting Around Your Work Area and Play tropical Sounds All Day.
15. Five Days In Advance, Tell Your Friends You Can't Attend Their Party Because You're Not In the Mood.
16. Have Your Co-workers Address You By Your Wrestling Name, Rock Bottom.
17. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream 'I Won! I Won!'
18. When Leaving The Zoo, Start Running Towards The Parking lot, Yelling 'Run For Your Lives! They're Loose!'

I've got another one:
During the holiday shopping season, walk out of the mall and slowly head through the parking lot to your car. Keep walking and see how long cars follow you, desperate for your parking space.

I have heard of people wrapping up their garbage in christmas wrap and leaving in their truck bed or car at the mall.

Along these lines, I installed a remote start in a car I once owned. I used it to do this sort of thing from time to time. It's even more convincing when the lights go on and steam starts pouring from the exhaust. Just let it run a minute and then turn it off. It drives those folks looking for an "up close" parking spot batty. I've got another one:

We used to do then and then we'd duck down between the cars and run (waddle!) away so they had no idea where we'd gone.

My dad was out in town one day and had the spare keyless remote to my mom's car. He had finished his errands and saw her car in the parking lot at the grocery store. He parked away from her car in the lot and waited for her to come out. She loaded her groceries in the car and got in. He opened her trunk. She got out to fix it, got back in the car. He popped the trunk again. As I recall, he did this several times before finally revealing himself. She was pretty ticked, although she forgave him...those two never stayed mad at each other for long.

There are two things I do frequently at work;
Skip rather than walk, and sing at the top of my lungs.
I work in assisted living right now, and it doesn't just bring a smile to my face - when I skip and sing through the dining room during meals, the residents LOVE it.
I also have a tendency to stand off to the side and dance when we have music groups for activities.
Again, the residents love it.
My coworkers? They think I'm nuts.

Talking about a slow day...
Is it so deathly quiet on here because of Superbowl Sunday? Someone mentioned to me that to me. Is that it? That's why you're all gone? Really?
What sport is that, anyway?

Silly me. It's obvious bowling, hence "superbowl".

I can't believe my eyes. The BBC appears to be showing this game. What is the world coming to?
It appears to be some sort of wrestling match, involving a ball the wrong shape, and men attacking each other.
Is your whole country at a standstill because of THAT? Have you all lost your minds?
