This April the first the Discordian community will be serving a Jake to
Wackenhut, one of the largest (in)Security Companies in the world. This is
specifically in coordination with the upcoming protest over Easter, outside
one of their "Detention" facilities at Woomera in the Australian desert,
where refugees are kept like animals awaiting the whim of Phillip Ruddock
(Minister for Cruelty). For more info: http://www.woomera2002.com/

For the uninitiated, Jake Day involves sending various forms of communique
(fax, telephone, mail, email etc) of a fun, or prankish manner to the
organisation concerned. The emphasis is on fun and humour rather than mere
malice/agrravation.

For instance a large number of enquiries to Wackenhut asking whether they
sell disposable handcuffs in designer colours or peach scented capsicum
spray. Or a swathe of applications to work there from fictitious & fanciful
entities (eg Hermann Goering making an application for a security position &
his qualifications). Or a variety of amusing complaints from mythical groups
(eg Citizens for Normalcy complaining that Wackenhut has not been
suppressing UFO information adequately). Whatever YOU think might be fun...
