We don't need no education

Last night I left my cell phone unattended for a few hours. When I checked it, I had four missed calls from my ex-wife, but no message. I called back to see what was going on, and Togers answered. He sounded very down.

Me: What's going on?

Him: Dad? Mom told me I had to call you about my grades. I got three Ds and two Fs.

Me: [About to launch into a profanity laced tirade]

Him: April Fool's!!!

I can't believe I fell for it.

    Whew...my kids would have got me on that one, except they couldn't say "April Fools" because it would likely be true... :)

  4. Heff, unfortunately, it WAS believable.

    Dee Ice, he probably jumped in because of the long pause, and he knew what was about to come.

    Inklings, he did.

    Anonymous, I know. Kids can be frustrating, eh?
