Unfortunatly Kirupa and the rest of the Mods will be shutting down Kirupa.com. The ammount of money needed too sustain this website has become to expensive to maintain. We will try to get Kirupa.com up and running as soon as possible. I hope this article can better explain the unfortunate Circumstance.

I was fooled, even after fooling many.

I was ready like this with three quick ideas and whatnot to avoid a disaster like kirupalessness.



Anyone keeping up to date on the news?
I phoned several people posing as a member of security for health in sarnia lambton, asking the residents of random homes to come to a hospital for immediate SARS treatment.

Heheh. SARS.

...I hope none of them actually went.

Here's the problem with this - because it is April 1st, many expect to see something like this on a site. Now, if we did this on a random date like June 15, this prank would have a much greater impact lol :P

....marks June 15 on his calendar.
