Looks like someone bought the domain name, tried to flip it and it still hasn't sold.

Ahh! I didn't know that was actually the site.

Hell, if I had more time (and consciousness), I'd have totally punk'd you guys!

Biggest April Fool's disappointment:
toolshed.down.net, which for about 13 years now has been the ultimate web site for the ultimate metal band TOOL, has had a pretty good joke every year. Nothing this year. I guess Kabir is too busy with all of his film production stuff. Sniff...

Yeah it's hilarious to take down the forums intentionally the day the COLAs are to be announced.

Oh well, it's not my money paying for his site (and never will be). Also makes me feel less guilty about having every ad blocked by firefox and never clicking a single one.

It's just lame to take down forums as an april fools joke.

Its about as funny as if Verizon turned off cell phone service for a day.

Dude, it's the crack pipe. Relax. You'll get through the shivers and the cravings. The FIL told you everything you need to know... would you rather hear Dirt Bag or DoJetDriver's takes on these things?

I can be annoyed about it without thinking "the airline biz is coming to an end".

You can view the page source and tell it's a joke. Pretty subtle, though.

How the heck am I supposed to know when we get another two week flying gig before mgt releases it?

I need a COLA if I am not going to have a "crack-pipe"...

Wait a minute. You told me via PM that you didn't bother reading "the crackpipe." You claimed you had never gone to the site. How would you know who those people are?

I said I occasionally lurk. And there's really nothing of substance that is ever there that's worth a damn anyway.

For a CRM instructor, you sure lack in people skills.
