It is April You Fool

I am the most gullible person on the face of the Earth. I know that. Every year I am fooled, many times throughout the day, even though I wake up and say "It is April 1 do not believe anything you hear, read, or see". I still get tricked. Usually it is only for a few seconds, the amount of time it takes for my mind to remember the mantra apparently. For pity's sake I always get tripped up by NPR's joke story. So please be kind to fools like me. Most of us know what day it is, we just can't help ourselves.
