Important Holidays: April Fool’s Day

Weather: Toilet paper in your tree, chalk in your eraser, salt on your toothbrush? Yep it’s all in the forecast as you may be made fool of this week.

Urbandictionary word of the day: VOCD 
 "Volume Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder"
Function: Acronym for a Noun

A psychoneurotic disorder in which the television viewer is compulsed to adjust the volume on the television to a "perfect" number, such as 15, 20, 25, etc. and suffers extreme anxiety or depression through failure to adjust the volume or witnessing an "imperfect" number (9, 16, 31). This also applies to radios, mp3 players, etc.

After reading this word, I bet you all have VOCD. Guaranteed, just observe yourself when watching at the 5 o’clock news tonight…

Song of the Week: Ride of the Valkyries, Budapest Symphony Orchestra

Notable Accomplishments: The surprise party last weekend was pulled off without a hitch! Thanks to all who helped. At the flip cup tournament last weekend, girls (Carizzle, Bar6on, and Scorpion Allstar) beat the guys (Guy with an explosive, Nate D-O-G-G, and GTI) 4-3. Girls also won in beer pong; perhaps this is a precursor to all who are betting on Sibling Olympics that will take place later this year. Lexy got a new razor phone. Tracy’s Mary Kay Party was a success. Ron has found a new bar that allows cigars; reportedly he is “Happy Pants”. Carinne’s gym is having a “swim the perimeter ofBermuda” contest; unfortunately she signed up two months late and now has to swim 300 laps/week to catch up.

Hypothetical Situation of the Week: So, you're a superhero, right. You've got a sweet cape and everything. But your superpower is not something, uh, normal. So it's not flying or laser beam eyes or telekinetics or turning water into wine (darn!) etc. It's something completely and totally random (and, perhaps, useless). What is your superpower?

For example, perhaps you can instantly dry your hair (after shower, swimming etc), simply by thinking about it. Or maybe every moldy peice of cheese becomes un-moldy when you touch it. 

cpp answer: the ability to interfere with traffic signals so that she always has green lights.

FWN Member of the Week: Gina!

Gina's high school mascot was the Tigers (shall we have an exorcism?) and her senior class theme song was "Eye of the Tiger". If she were stuck on a desert island with one plug and one appliance, it would be a microwave for her turkey bacon. Her shoe size is a six, and her most recent shower/shave was only hours ago.

Thanks! (clap clap clap clap clap)
