Now, imagine a opossum, weighing probably not any more than 10 pounds. With 500 balloons filled with helium (the more full they are, the better), we could lift 15.4322 pounds, which could be described as easily enough to elevate the creature.

Ugly Bastard · 07-11-2003, 03:05 PM

Yes, exactly. As soon as we cut the balloons loose, the damn thing would shoot up like the Power Tower. The fucker will be hissing and pissing so much...ah...I can hardly wait.

So what are we waiting for? Let's get this ball rolling.

getupkids · 07-14-2003, 01:14 AM

no kidding Ugly, when are we gonna do this?

BigDongedHoe · 07-14-2003, 01:31 AM

I'll pay 10%....so that's 35% of the money covered.

I also wanted to say that my father orders helium tanks all the time to his office (he blows up balloons for his child patients). Anyways I'm sure that he gets somesort of a discount when he orders them because he orders them quite frequently and also buys a bunch of gay toys to hand out to kids as well.

There's a good chance we could get some helium from him/buy some for a rather small fee.

That's the type of news that we like to hear. BDH, if there's any way that you could check into the prices a little more in depth, that would be great.

As stated above, 250-300 cubic feet of helium would something to reach for, as it should be easily sufficient to lift the opossum...but we may be interested in a smaller quantity if that is all that's available.

ttbabe23 · 07-14-2003, 02:32 AM

Malibu is tiny im sure she would float pretty well...oh well a small pig would be kind of funny too but i guess it would squeal quite a bit or else a cat maybe but the roadkill is always a good idea

Ugly Bastard · 07-14-2003, 09:00 AM

Alright, say we set a date...say Saturday July 26th around noon. I know there is a bit of a party on this day, but if I'm not mistaken, that's not for a bit later in the evening. Say we did it at this time, would everyone be able to make it that cares to?

Also, by making it two weeks from now, it leaves us ample time to reserve a tank of helium, etc; without making us wait too long.

Anyone have any objections?

Do you mean July 26?

sim_flex_x · 07-14-2003, 03:01 PM

I may or may not be able to make it, but i'd really like to attend

Orgazmo · 07-22-2003, 02:41 PM

We cannot for-fucking-get about this.

victim · 07-22-2003, 08:02 PM

I think we already did.

Ugly Bastard · 07-23-2003, 09:13 AM

Yeah, but I, and quite a few other members of this board are not. Hmm....

Orgazmo, what was the name of the place that you guys rented your helium from? The second we all agree on a date, I'm going to call them and rent a tank.

-Ugly Bastard

Orgazmo · 07-23-2003, 02:31 PM

Not sure, I'll try to look into that.

Well try hard, 'cause I'm not joking around. I want to do this as much as you do. Someone with a tight schedule propose a date. I can make it just about whenever, so I'm in whenever we do it. But for those of you who are busy all the time, but still want to be at this thing, take some initiative.

-Ugly Bastard

Pliedes · 07-23-2003, 08:32 PM

I have a really busy sceduale, but this Saturday or Sunday actually would be perfect.

Count me in for 10% of the bill.

Also, if it's going down soon, someone needs to tell Rufus to go ahead and catch one pretty soon.

Purity Cylinder Gases was the place, out in Boggs someplace.

Ugly Bastard · 07-23-2003, 11:14 PM

Alright, sounds good. As soon as a date is decided, I'll buy a tank, and make sure I have a truck to pick it up with. Then (assuming you're not bastards) you guys can pay me back whatever you feel fair at the gathering.

Date?

What about August 3rd. That's a Sunday. We never do stuff on a Sunday, but why not? No one is ever busy on Sundays. Who can make it then? I can.

Alpha · 07-24-2003, 02:12 AM

Though I probably will not be able to make it, if i can't i pray that someone will take many a pictures of this event and post them here. It would make my day.

Orgazmo · 07-24-2003, 08:43 AM

I'm probably free that day.

Ugly Bastard · 07-24-2003, 09:29 AM

August 3rd

We've got three yes's and one no. As soon as a few more formidable members reply with a "yes", I'm ordering a tank.
