If the desk chair is vinyl, rub it well with a piece of fur or wool (duh - same thing!) to build a nice static charge. Now toss on a small handful of the tiny foam bead from a beanbag chair.<br><br>place a piece of clear tape over the door lock and trim it to be invisible fit. watch while victim tries to insert key.<br>
<br>clear tape over the phone pick up switch (the part that lifts when you pick up the receiver) then call them. a lot. works well for the office.<br><br>If the victim uses a corded headset often at their desk, a paper clip can make it shorter that they are expecting.<br>
<br>skip all of the above and buy a case of these while they are still legal: <br><a href="http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/8c52/">http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/8c52/</a><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>A very effective prank that is easy to setup is loading a closed<br>
umbrella with 'stuff.' The two items I've used were the contents of a<br>
large hole punch and styrofoam peanuts. The hole punch stuff worked<br>
better as it is silent, small and if you have enough, looks like<br>
freaking snow. The peanuts can make a noise and give up the prank<br>
before initiation.<br>
