In Memoriam By: Evan on 5/2/2001; 12:25 PM Today, Wednesday May 2 is a very sad day. Today at my high school, 4000 inflated ballons were used to fill the Dean of Students office to the ceiling as a joke. It was all going splendidly until the popping began. The baloons were all popped, save some 26 as of this writing, only four are definitely safe as I have hidden them from the prying eyes of the sadistic balloon poppers. Why did these people do this? What had the baloons ever done to them but to bring joy to their lives, and how do they repay them?? By puncturing the wonderous balls of joy with pointy objects!!!! So please everyone take a moment of silence in the memory of these poor lost baloons. By the way this is not intended at all to be humorous so keep your laughing to yourself. It is a grave event that fills me with great despair, and I am completely serious in my belief that respect should be given to the fallen balloons cut down in their prime.
RE: In Memoriam By: Dorothy Marie on 5/2/2001; 4:40 PM Remember the May Balloon Massacre, and dream of the horror! Oh the HORROR! Guts of Carbon Dioxide spewed across the floor, painting the walls with their invisible elixer of life! How many balloons and tiny plants suffocated today out of the waste of that gas?! IT was HORRIBLE! All through my AP class while we were discussing police brutality to peaceful desegrogation demonstators we heard *POP*... *POP*... *POP POP POP POP POP!!!!* We were hiding roughly six survivors in our classroom at the time, and the floor nearly shook with their anxiety. One of them died out of pure fear as my classmate, Andrew McEwen, carried him to get a drink of water. His death reverberated across the halls, and the class next to me perked up in fright. When class was over, we visited the wreckage. Thousands of unburied dead were strewn across the floor! Some had even been skinned and their pelts worn as SHOE COVERS! I will never forget this day... that will live in infamy. I shall never forget he who gave the order "pop those balloons!"... never...
RE: In Memoriam By: Evan on 5/2/2001; 7:11 PM Yes we must remember for those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat it. If not for the intervention of the sadists, the balloons could have lived full happy six month lives and then died of old age. I have successfully saved four balloons, and hopefully others have also saved some balloons. What I still can't comprehend is WHY???? Why do these people get perverse pleasure in popping them!!!!!!??
RE: In Memoriam By: Dorothy Marie on 5/2/2001; 8:48 PM I have no answer for your query, Evan. All I know is that I am frightened by the popping of a balloon. I have been ever since my first encounter of a massacre... a birthday party. We were all given balloons with babies (little pieces of paper that told us a sharades' object we would have to play), and then told to sit down with them in a circle. We gladly obliged. However, the next order sent me into tears. They told us to SIT on our balloons and pop them with our gludius maximi. I knew no better and followed the orders, but the horrible feeling that proceeded... and the shock wave it sent through my body as each balloon was popped was just too much for me. I burst into tears and begged them all to stop, but they wouldn't... the massacre continues.
RE: In Memoriam By: Chie Theresa Fujioka on 5/2/2001; 10:15 PM My tale of woe We remember the fate of my two green balloons. One of which disappeared today from its home beside my back pack. The other is scarcely holding onto life with but a small breath of air within its thin lips. If anyone finds the murderer of my poor lime green balloon baby number one please inform the police. oh and christine still has my pet rock.
