Thanks to the help of Charles and Chuckit, we were able to prank our boss using the MegaMan Effect, and got it on tape!

You took an app someone else wrote for ADHOC, you followed some directions that other people posted in the forums to make it invisible, and it's your masterpiece?

Well, the whole concept of trying this out on somebody as a prank was my idea... weak, I guess, but this is my best work to date, so let me have my moment!
(I never claimed the technical achievement was mine, you'll get your credit where credit is due for helping me

Nothing will ever beat the AppleTalk-powered Energizer Bunny.
Oh please, someone make an OS X version!

It would be unlikely that anyone would want to make NetBunny for OS X, since the original version caused the author to get sued by Eveready.

It still remains my favorite prank.

I'd kill anyone if they touched my Mac
That said yesterday at the Vacation Bible School I'm helping out with, I pulled a prank on someone
Apparently Ben had not been handing in his sign out sheets for the week, which are basically the things we make sure the kids have their parents sign so that we know they're not walking home alone and junk. Well anyway, one of Ben's kids didn't show up yesterday so we took that as the opportunity to play a prank.
I walked up to him after the games time for his kids, and said, "Yah Ben... uhh the front desk needs to talk to you about something"
"Yah?"
"Yah, I dono something about one of your kids walking home alone... I think I heard something about... getting mugged"
I said that last bit as he was walking out the door. Apparently he got to the front desk with this deer in headlights look, sadly the lady at the front desk couldn't keep it together she just burst out laughing. Proof yet again... Christians suck at lying.

The QT logo appears and after waiting 20 seconds or so I bailed. Where'd it go?
Boss' revenge? He short circuited it, mebbe???
 
I just tried it again and STILL it wouldn't work. Broadband, OSX 10.3.9, 1.25GB memory on a
G-5 1.8.

Give petty people just a little bit of power and watch how they misuse it! You can't silence the self doubt, can you?

Good call, chicken.
The polls have it at:
50% of the US population agrees. The other 50% swallows.
100% agree that Dumbya is Christian.
Give or take a few %.

I would have gone for the ****** wallpaper personally, but that was pretty funny. Your boss sounds pretty cool.

My boss would have called IT and requested a new computer.
"It must be a virus. Get rid of the thing!"

Still not working. Oh well... Beer... I'm not old enough for that, and beer tastes crappy anyway... So I'll just tap into my mom's stash of Johnny Walker!

I find it commendable that your company hires homeless people into management positions.

What was said? Ouch is not a complete thought...
The old "Bible school student tricks fellow student into thinking that somebody is calling for them" gag never fails to illicit laughter! Thanks...
However, not that this needs a whole lot of improvement, but if you want to move beyond a conservative attempt at a timeless gag, I suggest adding a twist at the end like:
"and then Ben punched me in the mouth"
or
"after realizing that Ben was subject to this gag, he began to weep"
or
"after Ben realized that the front desk didn't want him, he said 'f-you front desk!" and stormed off"
or
"Ben realized that while he was visiting the front desk, he might as well have sex with it and the front desk lady"
or
"After the false alarm, Ben got frustrated and decided to burn down the place"
