Dur-dur, I didn’t read the “I’m fine with ‘the red balloon’ comments at the end, there. I’m a doofus.

I’m not sure if anyone’s got this yet or not, but, there’s a short video about a little boy who finds a red balloon and befriends it. In the end, it floats away and he looses it– I can’t think of what it’s called though, and I didn’t know it was french. I watched it in elementary school when I was a kid. :3

Hope that helps, anyways. XD

OK, so “Puff” gets a happy ending. What happens to stuffed tigers when little boys no longer believe? Do they go live in the Hundred-Acre wood?

7 - mitch4 - yes, actually, but I can’t find it. Swear I had it somewhere - it’s called “Signed, J.P.”.

Last night I saw a dragon sitting calmly in my yard…

“You used to come most all the time but it’s been thirty years…
“How could you just forget?”

I tried to tell my dragon friend that I was now a man
And men don’t have the time
To fool with dragon-kind
Besides, I’m sure the guys at work would never understand
‘I have a dragon friend’ - they’d think I’m round the bend

I’ve clearly forgotten most of it. But it ends with

I went into my office before dawn was in the sky
…and wrote a resignation note
‘I quit effective on this date, don’t ask the reason why
‘If mail should come for me, I’ve gone to Honalee’
Signed J. P.

So it’s got a happy ending.

That’s the kind of talk enema bags think is seductive.

From the look on the guy’s face - it’s not working.

There’s a bird inside the balloon, and he’s the one talking.

This is a speech balloon. The guy at right was trying to say something to someone else in the bar but the speech balloon has a mind of its own.

They “threw him an insane asylum”? Is that hip slang for a wild party? Or was the editor off getting therapy, too?
