April Fools?[edit]

Great pic! But I'm thinking the proposed DYK hook could be held over for next year's April Fools. Any comments? Gatoclass (talk) 23:04, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't think that the hook was so unbelievable that it would make a good April Fools Day hook. Anyway, issue is now dead as it's been used as a regular hook. Pic is not a free-use one, so couldn't be used for hook. Mjroots (talk) 10:56, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
