Running Late

While the prank target is asleep, reset all the clocks ahead two hours. When they wake up they will panic and think they slept late and are late for school or work.

Keep Searching
Print out a word search puzzle and give it to your victim.  Ask your victim to look for a word that does not exist in the puzzle so he/she will search and search endlessly, until he/she gets frustrated. Wait until he/she realize that  "APRIL" and "FOOLS" are in the puzzle!
