My husband used to be a volunteer firefighter, and he lived at the fire station with 3 other guys. One time my husband was in the shower, and the guys threw some firecrackers in with him and then ran off!!!!
We also got in a water fight one night using the hose off the truck. That's how we initiated the newbies. The fire alarm somehow got set off, and their captain had to get up out of bed to drive to the fire house and turn it off. Luckily he was a cool guy.

That reminds me of a time when my son, in early teens or maybe 11 or 12, was taking his sweet time in the shower. I got a pitcher full of cold water and started pouring it in. Couldn't see where he was through the shower curtain, so I started up near the shower head, moved slowly to the back (it was a bathtub), the back the other way again. He said it got him the whole time, since that's exactly how he moved, trying to get away from it!

MissBratt, ask Sis D about the time at Antioch when we fixed her house while they were out of town. We short-sheeted their bed, put toothpaste on the toilet seat and filled the bathtub with balloons to the top of the shower curtain (because we KNEW she would want a shower the minute they got home)

My husband just shuts off the hot water heater and they have instant cold water.
One thing he did was fix coffee for his boss. His boss would let his coffee cool and then just turn it up and drink it all. So my brother put a raw egg in the bottom of the cup and poured his coffee on top. When the coffee cooled his boss turned it up and drank the raw egg.
He got him back by putting a full box of starch in his washer then put the clothes in the dryer. He said his jeans were like cardboard.
But my brother never let an opportunity pass. He had a bunkmate that would sleep dressed with shoes on so that when his shift would start he would have someone just wake him up and he would jump off the top bunk and go to work.
Well the crew got together and tied his shoe laces to the bedstead. If that wasn't bad enough they woke him up before his shift started. He tried to jump up and swung down instead.
Not sure how he got back at the crew.

At night,we used to put a pocketbook in the road with fishing line tied to it. We hid in this big ditch and when cars would stop, we would jerk the line! Scared some people pretty good.
Then one day, we put a king snake in the pocketbook and actually let someone pick it up. People started coming out of the car while it was still rolling! We ran like crazy!
She and one of the twins decided it would be fun to place their sleeping four year old brother in a laundry basket and pull (they had tied a cord to the basket) him down the basement stairs.
He woke up halfway down, and out of the basket, wondering what in the world was going on.
Those two got in BIG TWUBBLE!!!
