my boss (whom I adore most of the time--when we avoid the subject of cats) is turning 50 on April 1.

We need some REALLY good ideas to celebrate her milestone--and April Fools Day.

We don't wanna do anything real mean, but she's a good sport.....

Thoughts?

If she is a good sport (and it won't offend the older folks), I vote for black floral arrangements (palmetto fronds and ferns look great w/ the ol' Krylon touch), black Mardi Gras beads on everyone, and a gift basket of comedic items (including the AARP application and copy of the magazine, some Ensure, crazy reading glasses, a toy rocking chair, a "how to be a cougar" book, black condoms etc.) but that also includes something nice like a spa package (it gets old fast to constantly be the joke of the day.)

50 pink flamingoes (or other yard art) is also fun.

Best one I've seen is the neighbor who knitted a "birthday suit" completely w/ gray pubic hair!

We pulled one on Crazy K, here goes;

Create a display case of all the things she has lost; ie keys, bikini top, etc. Buy a straw hat,or any hat, and attach all kinds of elderly items, ie depends, geritol, hemroid cream, bifocals. Ask Crazy about the obituary we published in the local paper, it was an obituary or her youth with really bad pictures of her sticking spoons to her face.

yes... friend really this is good idea but according to me it should be done with music she likes most coz without music everything goes down...and ...flowers too.

IF you have an empty room at the NH, then decorate it as if she is moving in! You know the drill...all the "comforts" of home. The morning of her birthday, simply admit her! You could really have some fun with this! Give her a gown, non-skid socks, etc. ALL marked with a black sharpie! Don't forget all the goodies: bedpan, denture cup, polygrip, etc.

We once did this for an aging colleague: All of us dressed in black (given). We had one of the funeral homes pick us up in a limo (the classic funeral one) and drive us to lunch! Of course, we paraded through town first!

:floor:perfect!

you can fill the room with all the tackiest of things.

or just put some truck ballz (omb's) on the backend of her car and be done with it.

I think she slung them off driving in the mountains so we had no evidence.
