Hard to imagine, I know…
I used to be a serial prankster when I was a kid teenager all my life. One of Kathy Howe's photos reminded me of one of my all-time favorite pranks.

(Kids, try this at home, it's really fun. Really!)

  1. Tear two 1-2 inch squares off a paper napkin

  2. Take the lids off of the salt and pepper shakers

  3. Pour salt into one of the napkin squares

  4. Pour pepper into the other napkin square

  5. Put the salt napkin square into the pepper shaker and screw on the lid

  6. Put the pepper napkin square into the sale pepper shaker and screw on the lid


The trick to this is that you have to have a fairly full salt and pepper shaker, so nobody would see the napkin piece. Fortunately, most restaurants are on top of their game with the salt and pepper shakers.

Unfortunately, I was never around to watch the hi jinx begin. But my vivid imagination told me that it would be really funny when someone thought they were putting salt on their food and out came the pepper.

Sad, isn't it? Sad that something like this still cracks me up?

Well, I guess the good news is that this sort of thing kept me out of trouble.

Then again, I guess the word 'trouble' is relative.
