Google Gulps Down April Fool's Day
By Nate Mook, BetaNews
April 1, 2005, 10:42 AM
Just because Google has gone public doesn't mean it can't partake in some April Fool's Day laughs. The search giant has unveiled a line of juice drinks called Google Gulp, which claim to make you more intelligent and less thirsty. Each Gulp features "Auto-Drink" technology that changes one's brain chemistry for the better.

Although company officials say you'll need a PhD from Stanford to comprehend how Google Gulp works, the drink essentially speeds up the process of electrical impulses in the brain. It may sound dangerous, but Google says it's "pretty sure you won't die."

A friend called me at 7:30 am today.  He is an @ss when it comes to April 1st so I was a leery about him calling me so early.  He told me that Michael Jackson Killed himself.  He said he'd find out more when he logged on at worked.  I asked him how he found out about this; he said a local radio station told him.

I reminded him that today was April first, and he said "Sh!t, your right, I just left a message with my dad telling him that Illinois had to forfeit.  That was probably a gag too."
