Happy April Fools' Day to me...

Ah, April Fool's Day...

Even when I'm the victim, I can still appreciate a well-executed prank (sometimes). But that doesn't mean I won't get even (always).

Today my co-workers decided to sell my car on craigslist—using the pictures they took of it sitting in the parking lot. And in the 40 minutes after they posted it, I got four calls.

Here's what their post looked like:



And this is what it says...

My name is Charlie Tyler, and I just found out that my job is transferring me to London, so I need to sell my car by mid-April. It's a Mitsubishi Eclipse with only 25,000 miles on it, and I hate to give it up, but I can't legally drive it in the UK.

It's a manual transmission, 2-door coupe, bright blue, with tinted windows and a CD player. Exterior is in great condition. Interior is in great condition too, with some small scuff marks on some of the door handles. Also, it's got a few decals on it--I love Smurfs and Clay Aiken, so I've got some stickers and magnets of both. If you want them, they're yours to keep, or I can take them off for you (and I'll use goo-gone, so the stickers won't be a problem). I've also gotten a leopard-print seat cover and matching steering wheel cover (not pictured)--I can throw those in too for an extra $20 if you're interested.

Anyway, price is $3500 OBO. See pictures for details. Call me at 513-255-2159 for more information and so we can talk more about it. Call today!


And now I just got my fifth call...

And one of my co-workers even went so far as to set up an email account as Charlie Tyler so they could send me a taunting email.

Well done, my fellow co-workers...but I hope you're prepared to sleep with one eye open.

I'll be patient, but I won't forget.
