Family is fun.My brother and I used to pull all sorts of pranks on each other when we were younger.
Eventually, we found out it would be a lot more fun to team up and pull pranks on our Mom.
We did all sorts of small annoying things - For a while, every morning, I would sneak into her car and set something on high - be it the AC, the radio, or the windshield wipers - Whavever. The best pranks are the most subtle, though...
She always listen to the 'lite rock' station on her stereo, which had a tape player she never used. We carefully recorded the radio station - very quiet, and for about three songs - and then inserted the most obnoxious, horrific death metal we could find, which happened to be much louder.
I wish I could have been there to see her as she frantically tried to change the radio station, not understanding why it didn't work. She took it in good spirits, and I believe she even pulled a few pranks on us.
Perhaps the worst thing I ever did was shortsheet my parents bed on april fools day - I must have been about 10 or so at the time, and I did the CLASSIC shortsheet, to where it ooked as if nothing was wrong. Little did I know that my parents had already been at the beginnings of their divorce.. Each one blamed the other, and my Father moved out shortly afterwards - I didn't own up to that one for a few years, but both found it to be funny.
Finally, I was the victim of a very clever- but malicious prank by my brother - and I believe it was the last one he ever pulled on me. At the time, I was not exactly a good studen. I had been obtaining just barely passing grades - mainly because I didn't care. Anyways, he gets his secretary at work (he was a few years odler) to call, and impersonate the school, saying that I woudl have to come in over spring break to prevent being held back. He thought it was hilarious until he came home to see all of the furniture in the house overturned - some thrown dwn the stairs, and me quite pissed off and exhausted. I couldn't laught about that one for a while. I don't think he's ever forgiven himself...

Shortsheeting...Its when you take the sheet on the bed, tuck the top part in so it looks like the mattress cover, fold it in half, and then take the bottom and make it look like the way the top sheet normally would - I probably botched the description, but maybe this illustration will help:
Normal bed:
Comforter: --------------------
Sheet : --------------------
Mattress : --------------------
Shortsheeted:
Comforter: --------------------
Sheet : /----------
