The Google April Fool...

Two of my boys were at the computers during their Word Work Daily 5 time today.  They happened upon the Google website.  Here is the conversation between the two.

"Topeka??"

"Hey, it says Topeka!"

"Where's the Google?"

"What's a Topeka?"

"Teacher, why does it say Topeka?"

Me - "Well, it's supposed to be an April Fools joke from Google."

"I don't get it."

Me -"Topeka is a city in Kansas."

"That's not funny."

"It's just a joke boys."

I wasn't about to go into the whole background of the joke but man did it really stump them.  They stared at the Topeka logo for a few minutes trying to figure it out.

Very luckily that was the height of my April Fool's jokes today.  I survived another April Fool's!
