Wool pulling.

A really good joke takes time to develop. I'm not talking about the sort of joke that one repeats to family over dinner, or to friends at a party, but something more along the lines of a practical joke.

I love a good practical joke. I've pulled more than a few, and been the victim of some. The successful ones will make me laugh, no matter on which end I find myself.

And so I greatly appreciated the literary joke I read about this morning in the NY Times. You can read it for yourself here:
