There is an April Fools joke in those capsules, I'm sure of it. Maybe you could enlist the help of your little one to play a joke on mama?
She knows me far too well.
Kind of reminds me of Dick Shawn, a great comic - he played Lorenzo St. DuBois in the original film of The Producers.
On April 17, 1987, during a performance at
University of California, San Diego's Mandeville Hall, Shawn suffered a
heart attack and collapsed face-down on the stage. The audience initially assumed that it was part of his act; but
after he had remained motionless on the stage for several minutes, a stage hand examined him and asked if a physician was present.
According to the LA Times:
Witnesses said Shawn, 57, was left lying on the stage for nearly five minutes before the audience realized it was not part of his act, and an ambulance was called. Hospital spokeswoman Diane Yohe said he received cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the Scripps emergency room, but was pronounced dead at 9:55 p.m.
“He literally was probably on the stage five minutes until it was realized that it was serious,” said Tom Wartelle of San Diego, a member of the audience of about 500. “The stagehand came out several times and obviously thought it was part of the act.
“It all blended in very well,” Wartelle added. “There were comments from the audience like, ‘Take his wallet!’ Finally a doctor came from back of the wings, felt for his pulse and realized something had happened. He flipped him over. The audience reaction by then was, ‘Boy, this is out of taste.’ ”
University officials said Shawn’s son Adam had attended the performance.
