Once upon a time, long ago, the funniest people on SI and I pulled April Fools (which happens to be my birthday) pranks on SI folks, with imaginary companies.

FBN Associates - Year 2000/Y2K IPO!!!

It was a HUGE success, subsequently followed by:

WebNode.com - $4B Contract for Next Generation Internet

And:

FunPhone.com planning to go public?

The day we launched the nonexistent FBNA IPO gag, the real FBN popped something like 200%. Absolutely no doubt our gag was the reason.

Been following and milking it ever since. Know it by now, like the back of my hand. Dream trading stock, for me. KA-CHING! :-)))
