Today is April Fool’s Day, the day when practical jokes abound. The Portland, Oregon radio station KINK FM (101.9, http://www.kink.fm/) is well-known for having staged some well-conceived and absolutely hilarious fake news stories on this day in years past. And of course, over many years the TV game show The Price is Right (http://www.cbs.com/daytime/the_price_is_right/) has been rather infamous for doing something to freak out a contestant. See what host Drew Carey does today! The show brought back the hoaxing tradition when he became the new host.
To celebrate this day, I present you two Qudoku word puzzle sets, each spelling out a quote. The first puzzle set with three Word Sudoku puzzles spells out a quote by Mark Twain. You'll notice the twist immediately: the three Word Sudoku puzzles are all different sizes!
