What!? That's crazy! I'm seeing so many silly posts today...definitely feeling like an April Fool. Too funny:-) Was the pecking Twitter helmet also a joke? Sure seems like it. Now I've seen everything. Right?

[Splugged]

Damn April 1st... :-)

[incrediBILL]

I forgot what day it was...

The "cat alopecia" was a quick reminder LOL

[jcoronella]

Well played, Sir.

[nomis5]

I clicked as well .....!

a cure for cat alopecia

sounded quite reasonable given MCs recent posts.

Wow...

Rick Astly has over 70 million views?

Some people will pay for what others pay to avoid...

Good luck Matt. You will be missed...

[goodoldweb]

Best news I've heard in a decade...

Ha well...i guess we can still hope can't we?

Oh, thanks for the reminder! Had to go see what they'd got up their doodle sleeve. Heh, heh.

No doodle this year, lucy. Matt did change his mind about retiring, though, and he did an April Fools video, in a semi-serious vein, which you can find here....
