eh... I've done better

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...&id=1160220005

That was about 700-800 balloons filled up in 2 hours by about 8 guys on my floor.
It was on my list of things to do.

All I can say is, be happy it was balloons and not confetti. That stuff stays in your keyboard forever.

I could not agree more about the confetti. The only way to get it out is to remove the keys, and as a computer tech, that is not something that I like to do

Agreed. That would let all the air out of the fun, and just deflate everyone's mood.

If you guys fill this thread up with many more bad, really bad, puns - it's going to burst.

Brandon,
We need a "disable lavery" button, pronto. He's going to hurt himself doing this and what's worse is I've got to see it unfold here, painfully.

Raul,
"Keyboard cleaning duty" sounds like a great off-season project for 111's software guys. You need to keep them trained to endure the redundant pain and never ending loop.
