The April Fool's Prank on Sydney, Australia

An electronics millionaire, Dick Smith, pulled an April Fool's prank on Sydney today by sailing into the harbor towing what appeared to be an iceberg with a radio reporter broadcasting from the iceberg. The whole prank only cost me $1,450, Mr. Smith said. I just do these things for kicks. It takes the boredom out of everyday work. Wow. I hope nobody needed that firefighting cream. There's a system of the elaborate pipe through every neighborhood to all the fire hydrants to distribute the foam. Kids on the streets of New York City crank those bad boys open and have all this stuff.
