Suggestions, please? I need revenge for a practical joke!
My dad got me good in an e-mail. I need to get him back.
First, here is the e-mail he sent me:
Attached was a file that I managed to find a link to online, so you can actually see what I saw (WARNING: don't do this late at night, especially if you are alone, because even if you do not believe in ghosts or are not afraid of them...trust me, you will get a shock :) (also, my attempts to make this into a link have made only weirdness...you'll need to cut and paste. Sorry...)

Heeh...now you understand! Sorry if you fell for it :)
I DID read this late at night, while everyone else was in bed (against my better judgment). This was ten minutes ago, and my adrenaline is STILL racing. So I sent him an e-mail saying I would get him back. But I need ideas. My "you are an idiot" link is not quite right. (Plus I would never call my dad an idiot. This was brilliant, really, even if he did not make it up himself.)
As soon as I figure something good out, I will wait a few weeks, maybe send him some normal links in the meantime, give him a chance to let down his guard. But I need something to get him back.
Suggestions? Please, nothing R- or X-rated.

From the "How did we ever live before we had email" department.
Subject: Fw: Spooky Car Commercial - read message first
WARNING - NOT FOR KIDS!!
Subject: Spooky Car Commercial - READ MESSAGE FIRST
This is a car advertisement from somewhere. When they finished filming the
ad the people who made it noticed something moving along the side of the
car, like a ghostly white mist, and an eerie sound that you can barely hear
( must have sound).The ad was never put on TV because of the unexplained
phenomenon. Watch it and about halfway through, you will see the white mist
crossing in front of the car then following it along the road ...
I almost did not catch it the first time. Turn the volume up and look close
as the car passes behind the tree! It IS very weird!!

Oh my goodness, I screamed out loud. I was looking intently at the road, waiting for the car to emerge from behind the tree. My adrenaline is now flowing. :-)
Your dad is a sick man.
Melody, I'm glad I got my dad's e-mail before I went to these sites...I sort of at least had some warning Dad's would be spooky!
lawbrat, I did the same thing, leaning in real close to the screen, listening for the sound...at least I didn't have the volume turned up loud, because everyone else was asleep!
Susie, my dad is actually a mild-mannered retired elementary school teacher :) This is a pretty unusual prank for him (but he is SOOOOO enjoying that he "got me"). But the person who made this little prank, yes, that person is sick!
I FOUND ONE FOR YOU!

Crap, that might not work, and I don't remember the URL of the guy I got it from, but I know how to get back there. If this doesn't work, tell me, I'll find the blog URL. It's GREAT! Fun, innocent and startling, with a kitty theme!
UGH! I keep going outside the lines on that thing Susie. I cant get to the end.
I have no ideas for a practical joke. How close to your dad do you live? You could make some 'cupcakes' for him, except their little meatloafs, topped with mashed potatoes. He's expecting a tasty treat and gets dinner. :-)
Susie, a "kitty" theme, huh? :) I went there, and foolish as I am, I got sucked into playing. Audrey wandered in, and by then I'd forgotten what the likely outcome would be. STUPID ME. Poor Audrey! :) This one is good though. The cutesy theme REALLY gets your guard down.
lawbrat, I think I know what I'm going to do (in addition to sending him a couple of these fun sites when his guard is down!). I'm going to "sabotage" his computer next time I'm there: change the screensaver, change the homepage to something weird, switch his mouse buttons around, things like that :)
I fell over backward when my hubby showed me that commercial awhile ago.
Somewhere there is an email that brings up a black screen and all of these error messages that get worse and worse and finally say "C Drive being erased" or something like that. I wish I knew where to tell you to find it!
Try this one.

Lost a few years of my life...but I loved it...was not expecting that at all...I can't think of a good one for you to send back, but if something comes to me I'll send it...my heart is still pounding!!
have someone call him when you know he's at work and leave a message saying he won something (like tickets to his favorite team...whatever)
and give him this 1-800-275-4277
Hee hee...It's mean, but damn if it isn't funny!
