Re: Why don't you pop 'loons?
I just recently realized how much I really like soft squishy balloons, when I found a balloon in the street as I was about to take a walk. I've had it for almost two weeks, now - and it's still in very good shape, albeit slightly under-inflated. I'm thinking it was originally filled with helium, as I read that helium-filled balloons last longer than air-filled balloons.
I've since purchased some cheap latex balloons from Walmart, and they don't quite have the same amount of softness. Maybe I have to wait a few weeks?
Anyway, I can't bear the thought of anything happening to the balloon that I rescued - even though I realize that all balloons have to go sooner or later.
So... non-popper here.
