JJ, the accepted etiquette of April's fool day is for the "stuff" to be posted in the morning of April 1. Your post was timestamped 5:22pm i.e. 7:22pm Auckland time. So, is this for real or what? :-)

Sorry about you job loss. Since you sold all of your Rolex watches, I will see you on TCF (the cartier forum) with Steve Mullholland

Good one!

Very true, Kai......but when I posted it last night my time, it was still the 31st for most of the others.......so I thought I'd get in early for them, especially our American and Canadian friends!!
