I enjoyed this article from the BBC about the modern day equivalents of Shakespeare's various fools

probably not so meaningful to non-Briits/anglocomedyphiles, but maybe those people could provide different suggestions for the roles?

Also props to Zengum who is feeling unappreciated down there in Health with his vaccine against autism story.

My problem with April Fool's news stories these days is that I often find myself hoping that some stories are jokes and they turn out not to be. I wonder if the bearers of bad/controversial news deliberately wait to publish on April 1 in the hope that the true sting will be numbed by the foolery surrounding it?
