Search Engine Optimization Sock Troll

Search Engine Optimization Sock Troll Alert!!

What is a search engine optimization sock troll you may ask. Well, it is not a what, it is a he. A man, who likes to to do seo (search engine optimization), loses his socks in the dryer and is far from troll looking. Sure, he may be in the same biz as I am. But that doesn't man I can't respect him as a human being, even if he is a search engine optimization sock troll.

You see, not all SEO professionals are alike. Some, like me with far to many years of experience need to help and guide out underlings, such as my dear friend the search engine optimization sock troll.

So, with great pride, I introduce you to my fellow SEO guy: his name is not important, but his seo identity is: search engine optimization sock troll, and you can visit him at ArteWorks

Bathroom Pranks. Top 27 Bathroom, Toilet Pranks

Bathroom Pranks. Top 27 Bathroom, Toilet Pranks

Remove The Toilet Seat
You can physically remove the toilet seat from any bathroom.

Pink Bubbles
Take the lid off the cistern of a toilet. This is where the part that control the flushing is located. Then pour in some bubble bath liquid and some pink food coloring. The next person to flush the toilet will get pink bubbles everywhere!

Smile! Your On Bathroom Candid Camera!
Before a group of friends come over, just take a camera into your bathroom and video tape the sink and toilet. As soon as one of your buddies goes to use the toilet, have your other friends gather around the TV, pop in the video you filmed earlier. When your victim comes out of the bathroom he will wonder what everyone is watching and laughing about...he will then see the screen...it will look like he was being videotaped while using the bathroom!!

Vinegar In Mouthwash
Pour some vinegar inside your victim's mouthwash.

Bathroom Candle Prank
Place a candle a little below the seat and off to the side. Methane lights up quite nicely.

Knox
Place several packages of "Knox" (clear gelatin) in the toilet of someone who will not be around for several days. Looks like water and is harder to detect than the cellophane on the lid. For a more instant effect, there is a substance available at most magic supply stores called anhydrous sodium poly-acrylate which holds up to 300 times its weight in water. Doesn't take much to turn a toilet solid or someone's drink, or...

Shoe Polish Prank
Shoe Polish of the appropriate color on the toilet seat.

Clothes Swipe
Swipe a person's clothes while they are showering. Put them in an embarrassing place such as the showers for people of the opposite sex.

Eggs In Soap Dispenser
Crack a couple of eggs and drop them in the soap dispenser. Whoever washes their hands next will try to wash their hands with eggs.

Out of order stall
Write "Out Of Order" on a sticker note or piece of paper and tape it to the outside of a bathroom stall. Some people will think there is something wrong with the toilet and avoid using it.

Gush Of Toilet Water
Go into the school bathroom and remove the top toilet lid. Look for a rubber thin pipe on the side, and disconnect that pipe. You will see a little hair barrette like thing connecting the rubber pipe to the plastic pipe. The next person that flushes the toilet will get a gush shooting upwards.

Where To Leave Toothpaste
Leave toothpaste on the underside of light switches and doorknobs.

Cellophane Toilet Bowl Prank
Place clear cellophane over the toilet bowl but under the seat. Works best at parties where a large percentage of the people are drunk.

Classic Flush Toilet While Showering Prank
Flush toilets while a person showers. The more toilets the better.

Sealed Shut
On a cubicle where the door reaches the floor, seal the door shut and fill the cubicle with water. You may wish to introduce marine life.

Lifesaver Shower
Fill the shower head with dry temper paint, onion salt, easter egg pellets or the like. Lifesavers are great since they dissolve and then reform on the victim. The victim will feel sticky afterwards and of course the solution to that is to take another shower...

Hair Removal In Shampoo
Put Nair or some other hair removal chemical in a person's shampoo or conditioner. You may need to distract the person for a moment to let the stuff take a better hold.

Urinate Forever
Impress a buddy who is in a room next to the bathroom. Excuse yourself to go to the bathroom, but along the way get a large bucket with water and take it in with you. Then slowly pour it in the toilet. It will take forever to finish pouring it all in. Your buddy in the room next door will say, "WOW" as he will think you are taking a very very long pee.

Food Coloring In Hand Soap Dispenser
Put some food coloring inside the hand soap dispenser. When your victim tries to wash his hands, they will end up worse than before he decided to wash them.

Cream Cheese Deodorant
Scrape off about an inch or so of your victim's deodorant and replace it with cream cheese. It will take a few minutes to sculpt the cheese in place to look like the deodorant. When finished, put the lid back on and back where you found the deodorant. When your victim needs to freshen up again, he will get a cream cheese surprise

Terrible Aim
Sprinkle some water with yellow food coloring all over the toilet seat and floor. It will look like whoever used the toilet before you was a terrible aimer.

Unable To Open
Glue all the bottles of shampoo shut so they cannot be opened.

Bar Of Soap Lather Prank
Take some nail polish and coat a bar of soap with it. Let it dry. Then put it in the bathroom shower. When your victim tries to use it, he or she will go nuts trying to get it to lather up.

Shampoo Shower Prank
Glue a bottle of shampoo to the shower shelf (to avoid damage, use clear caulk on a surface that can be scraped).

Shower Before Entering
If you know someone who turns on the shower before actually entering the tub area. Then before their next shower, turn the shower head so it faces outside the shower area. Most people don't even look up before turning the nozzle.

Salty Toothpaste
Sprinkle some salt on your victim's toothbrush. When this person goes to brush their teeth, he or she will get a salty tasted treat.

Stuck In The Bathroom
Remove the bathroom door knob and put it back on the reverse way so the lock is on the outside. Then push the button or turn to lock the door. Remember to leave the door open. Now, whoever is next to use the bathroom, will not even notice this and he will lock himself inside.

The World's Greatest Pranks - Top 6 World Pranks
Pranks People Worldwide Can Appreciate

It only takes a thought, action or activity created as prank that can change the thoughts and ideas of people of every walk of life. A simple or elaborate plan that gives an illusion of truth but is deceptive and outlandish in presentation.

Over the years, many people have been part of or on the receiving end of pranks. The following examples of pranks from all over the world, have a common thread. Read them and learn how to present an idea in the most extraordinary form of tomfoolery.

PRANK #1
H.G. Wells’s War of the World's

Most of us have heard of the 1938 Halloween Eve radio broadcast by Orson Welles of an adaptation of H.G. Wells’s War of the Worlds that many took to be an announcement that Earth had been invaded by Martians. Announcements that the story was fiction were made four times during the broadcast. Welles ended the show by announcing that the broadcast was a “holiday offering”: “the Mercury Theater’s own radio version of dressing up in a sheet and jumping out of a bush and shouting boo.” The disclaimers did little to prevent many people from believing we’d been invaded by Martians. It’s been called the hoax of the century, but it wasn’t even a hoax. It wasn’t a prank, either. It wasn’t intended to fool people but to entertain them. Yet it fooled many people for several reasons.

1. It was presented realistically and authoritatively.
2. The story itself was credible at the time. There were flying machines, and the possibility of interplanetary travel was easily conceivable. It was not farfetched that some other race of beings might be more technologically advanced than we were.
3. Radio would have been the medium used to announce such an invasion.


PRANK #2
The Swiss Spaghetti Harvest

Considered the greatest April Fools' prank ever. In April 1957, BBC television broadcast this story and got hundreds of calls and letters on how people could start their own.

A clever April Fool's Day joke was played by this, normally very serious, programme in 1957 when Panorama reported on a bumper spaghetti harvest in southern Switzerland. TV viewers saw Richard Dimbleby walking among trees growing spaghetti, while workers pulled the pasta off the trees and put it into baskets. When viewers called to ask how they could grow spaghetti plants, the BBC replied "place a sprig of spaghetti in a tin of tomato sauce and hope for the best." Lending the hoax credibility, was the fact that spaghetti was not a widely eaten food in Britain in the 1950s and was considered by many to be very exotic.

'It is not only in Britain that spring this year has taken everyone by surprise. Here in the Ticino, on the borders of Switzerland and Italy, the slopes overlooking Lake Lugano have already burst into flower. But what, you may ask, has the early and welcome arrival of bees and blossom to do with food ? It is simply that the past winter, one of the mildest in living memory, has also resulted in an exceptionally heavy spaghetti crop. The last two weeks of March are an anxious time for the spaghetti farmer. There is always the chance of a late frost which, while not entirely ruining his crop, generally impairs the flavour and makes it difficult for him to obtain top prices in world markets.

'Spaghetti cultivation here in Switzerland is not, of course, carried out on anything like the tremendous scale of the Italian industry. Many of you, I am sure, will have seen pictures of vast spaghetti plantations in the Po Valley. For the Swiss, however, it tends to be more of a family affair. Another reason why this may be a bumper year lies in the virtual disappearance of the spaghetti weevil, the tiny creature whose depredations have caused much concern in the past. After picking, the spaghetti is laid out to dry in the warm Alpine air. Many people are very puzzled by the fact that spaghetti is produced in such uniform lengths. This is the result of many years of patient endeavour by plant breeders who have succeeded in producing the perfect spaghetti. Now the harvest is marked by a traditional meal. Toasts to the new crop are drunk in these poccholinos, then the waiters enter bearing the ceremonial dish. This is of course spaghetti - picked early in the day, dried in the sun, and so brought fresh from garden to table at the very peak of condition. For those who love this dish, there is nothing like real home-grown spaghetti'.

PRANK #4
Wet Phones

When people in north London received a telephone call from an engineer saying that there was a fault on the line, they believed him. He said that the fault could only be put right if the receiver was dunked in a bucket of water. Real telephone engineers had quite a job repairing wet telephones.

NOTE: This is a prank my husband pulled on his mom while he was in college.

PRANK #5
Air Shortage

Overweight Americans were alarmed when it was announced that anyone weighing over 89 kilograms (14 stone) was to be deported. This drastic measure had become necessary, the newspaper reports said, because pollution was leading to a shortage of oxygen. As fat people consumed more than their fair share of air, they had to go. People realized that the proposal was a hoax when they discovered that the reports had been written by Alan Abel, a New Yorker who was well known for his amazing and successful practical jokes.

PRANK #6
Upside-down Room

Rudolph Schenk was a rich American who loved to play jokes on people. He would often invite people to visit his luxurious home where he would treat them to a hearty meal and rather too much to drink. The guest would then be invited to stay the night to sleep off the effects of the alcohol. When the quest was sound asleep Schenk had him transferred to a specially-built room. The floor of the room was painted white, like a ceiling, and a chandelier rose up from it. The real ceiling was painted to look like floorboards and furniture was fixed to it. There were no windows in the room but Schenk had a secret spy hole through which he could watch what happened when the quest woke up to find himself in an upside-down room.

World's Greatest Pranks
From the Tacky to the Well-Known

Alan Abel's pranks go back to the late 1950s with a widely reported bogu campaign to clothe horses. The slogan? "A nude horse is a rude horse."

Then there was the regular prank caller guy who starred on Howard Stern's radio show when his format was free. This man used to call into telethons and talk shows pretending to be a source until he got his contact on the phone - then he released his prank with both barrels.

The Jerky Boys came out with comedy tapes in the 90s called "Prank Calls" and followed them with sequels featuring numerous digits dialed to doctor's offices, construction companies, and other service organizations pretending to be anyone from a patient to a job applicant among others.

In 1996 Taco Bell allegedly announced they had bought the Liberty Bell much to the chagrin of politicians and the public and that they would be renaming it the Taco Liberty Bell.

All a hoax.

Last year a reporter squirted actor Tom Cruise in the face after pretending that he was getting ready to ask him a question. Joey Skaggs, a professional prank writer, had people convinced there was a such thing invented as fish condos. And the idea took off. Then there was the 1938 Orson Wells' radio broadcast - "The War of the Worlds" which had everyone scared to death, contemplating their mortality.

Author Kevin Trudeau who wrote books on how the medical and pharmaceutical industry was keeping secrets from consumers, making them sicker was recently exposed as a fraud and said to have served time in prison.

Remember the 1995 t.v. documentary "Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction?" It involved whether an autopsy was actually performed on a supposed Martian aboard a 1947 UFO when it crashed in Roswell, NM. On April 1, 1957 the British media reported that the Swiss were enjoying a bumper crop of spaghetti. In 1976 several policemen in the U.S. posed as crooks and bought back all the stolen items criminals had taken.

You can go to a bait store, buy 100 crickets, release them under your target's door, and it'll be weeks before they stop chirping at night. Cheerleaders have been said to bake Ex-Lax chocolate chewables into brownies and give it to the football team or their opponent team before a big game.

And one year a Philadelphia radio station, WIOQ announced that a pet tax would be implemented to make up for the deficit.

The emails all claim that “your internet access is going to get suspended”, as the receipient has committed “illegal activities” such as pirating software, movies or music.

This is the email:

The emails, which say they come from the “ICS Monitoring Team”, claim that a report of the user’s activities in the past six months is attached in a file called user-EA49943X-activities.zip.

However, if you open the contents of the user-EA49943X-activities.zip file you risk being infected by a malicious Trojan horse designed to communicate with remote hackers. Criminals can then break into your computer and use it for their own money-making purposes.

Sophos is identifying the malicious files seen being used in the campaign so far as Troj/Meredrop-A and Troj/Agent-HQK. Users of other anti-virus products would be wise to check their vendor to see if an update is available.

With so many people suffering from internet addiction (also known as ‘discomgoogolation’), it’s not hard to imagine how many people would react to receiving an email like this.

Not only would many people be prone to clicking before thinking at the accusation that they have been engaged in illegal activities, but also a disturbing proportion would be alarmed about the prospect of not being able to surf the internet.

Phone Call Prank. Tennager Calls White House

Icelandic teenage caller tricks White House

REYKJAVIK (Reuters) - A teenager says he convinced the White House he was Iceland's president and managed to schedule a call with George W. Bush but was found out before he got to talk to the president.

"My call was transferred around a few times until I got hold of Bush's secretary and managed to book a call meeting with Bush the following Monday evening," Vifill Atlason, 16, told Reuters.

The teenager posed as Icelandic President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson when he made the call on Dec 1.

Icelandic police turned up at his door two days later -- the day of the planned call -- and took him in for questioning.

"They told me the CIA had called the National Commissioner of the Icelandic police and asked if the police could try and find out where I received that phone number from," said Atlason.

The teenager said he was unable to recall where he discovered the telephone number for the White House.

"I know I've had it on my phone card for at least 4 years now and that an Icelandic friend gave it to me, but I don't remember who," he said.

At a White House news conference on Monday, Bush spokeswoman Dana Perino said her understanding was that Atlason had called a public line "that anybody can call", according to a transcript.

Local police confirmed the National Security Unit at the national police headquarters had asked them to bring Atlason in.

Jon Bjartmarz, Chief Superintendent at Iceland's national police headquarters, said Icelandic police had not spoken to their U.S. counterparts about the matter. He declined to say how police were tipped off about Atlason's call.

"As far as we're concerned, there will not be any further investigation, and I don't know if the American government is taking any action because of this," he said.

Putting Couani on the Map

During the autumn of 1902, the President of Couani called a Press conference at his luxury Paris hotel. Some of the reporters had never heard of Couani and according to the President, Adolphe Brezet, that was the reason for the Press conference. Brezet explained that Couani had long been under the dominance of its powerful neighbour, Brail, but as it had now gained its independence he had been sent to Paris to inform the world of its existence. The President spoke so convincingly of his country, that the reporters believed him, and by the end of the year everyone in Paris had heard of Couani. Early in 1903, the first Couani embassy opened in Paris and this was soon followed by consulates in London, Rome, Berlin and Madrid. In 1904, Brezet had letters from both the Japanese and Russian governments. The two nations were at war and urgently needed more ships. Would it be possible, both nations wondered, for the famous Couani shipyards to build them? Somewhat unusually, Brezet took a while to reply. Meanwhile, the two countries checked up on Couani with their ambassadors in Brazil. Much to their surprise, they were informed that there was no such place.
