dear reader ,

I have seen the world and tasted of its many pleasures. I have been entertained by every form of entertainment, diverted by every diversion, and amused by every amusement. And I tell you trulynothing in this world can quite compare with the joy of pranking rich boys.

In the pages that follow, I assure you that you will find only the finest, drollest pranks. Each and every one of them has been tested on at least three (3) rich boys, and they worked admirably in every case.

Why rich boys, you ask? I suppose its simply because they take disappointment so badly! They pout and mope and throw fussy little tantrums. And besides, the higher the pedestal, the more fun it is to knock someone off of it!

Go, therefore! There is a world full of rich boys just waiting to be pranked. Let this trusty little tome guide you as you poke them, prod them, tweak and torment them!

I wish you well, and leave you with the Pranksters Blessing: May you always be the one to make the joke, and never be the butt!

Yours in Mischief,
the droll prankster

Put a shot of espresso in another fellows morning tea. You will ensure that the poor chaps day gets off to a shaky start!

Sew up the lapel on another fellows blazer. The poor chap will be forced to carry his boutonnire in his hand, like a fool!

Put Xs and Os at the bottom of another fellows letter. His friends will think he closes his missives with hugs and kisses, like a lovesick schoolgirl!

Intercept another fellows invitations, and white out the SVPs of his RSVPs. His guests-to-be will think him the rudest of fellows when they see the command, Rpondez!

Dull the blade of another fellows letter opener. You will rejoice as the defeated fellow cries himself to sleep on top of a pile of unopened letters.

Sew a pocket on the front of another fellows favorite shirt. The poor fellow will look like hes wearing a common workmans blouse!

Raise the bottom hem on another fellows running shorts. When he performs his jumping jacks, the poor chaps friends will catch a glimpse of the family jewels!

Replace another fellows double-breasted suit with a triple-breasted suit. You will delight in the poor fellows humiliation when he is mocked for his extra breast!

Place binoculars in another fellows bedroom. His friends will think he spies on his neighbors, like a peeping Thomas!

Install clashing window treatments in another fellows boudoir. You will rejoice in his humiliation when his friends discover that the curtains do not match the drapes!

Make another fellows bed, and tuck the sheets so tightly that he is unable to get in. The poor fellow will be forced to nap on top of the covers, like a common drunkard!
