If anyone has any good April fools links, post em here.

I'll start...every year ThinkGeek sells some great stuff on April 1.

I was looking at the Thinkgeek site earlier today, and I noticed a curious similarity between the logos on the 'RC Gastron Hunger Eliminator' and a certain in-car mp3 player we all know and love.

Anyone else notice the similarity?

BMW has adverts in many papers for the BMW "Shef " which allows you to control your oven from the car's dashboard, including an "oven cam":

I like how this year ThinkGeek has Half Life 2, Doom 3, and Halo 2 available. Wasn't it Duke Nukem Forever last year?
