Apple Sells iPod Socks
Isao writes "Not paying any attention to the date, Apple has available the next must-have iPod accessory. Not headphones, not a remote, not even video. It's... socks. For the undressed iPod, a collection of socks, color-coordinated for any and every occasion. Be the envy of the sockless ones for a mere $29.95 (for six). No, really."
Too bad this one isn't an April Fools joke
A sock that fits both my feet and my iPod. Wait, maybe I shouldn't have said that...
color-coordinated for any and every occasion
I don't see no black there. Not good for a funeral.
It is immensly more funny and interesting that Forbes.com fell for an April Fools joke from The Mac Observer
A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts:
"Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"
The man below says: "yes you're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field."
"You must work in Information Technology," says the balloonist.
"I do," replies the man. "How did you know?"
"Well" says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but it's no use to anyone."
The man below says, "You must work in Management".
"I do" replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well", says the man, "you don't know where you are, or where you're going, but you expect me to be able to help. You're in the same position you were before we met, but now it's my fault."
"Those that start by burning books, will end by burning men."
