Suuuuure you did.
In the dim and distant past on Tue, 01 Apr 2003 18:01:04 GMT, it was rumoured that petben spake thus on the subject of "Re: Matt Groening" in alt.tv.futurama:
Uhm... The original message included the mention that it was a joke.

Good grief, everyone needs to comment?
The original did not make it obvious unless you scrolled down a good way down the page in an attempt to fool the reader.
Next time I try to dispel a "joke", I will be sure to include a bibliography, graphs and footnotes for the pedantic! LOL

(Sorry, it was the only logical response).
Every year, somebody posts this joke on April 1st.
It took longer than usual this time.

I never saw the humor in fake obituaries. In fact, I always found them to be in poor taste.

Yeah. A real thigh-slapper.
