Hi all,
I seem to recall that the "squiggley worm" balloons by Unique, as discussed back
in Feb. were vaguely bowling pin shaped with an antenna on top.  Before
inflating, if you were to push the antenna back inside the balloon, and out the
mouth, (like turning it half-way inside out), tie a knot in the antenna, push it
back inside the mouth, and then inflate... that should get rid of the antenna,
and leave the knot inside the balloon, out of sight, or on the other hand, you
could just tie an knot in the antenna, then turn the whole balloon inside-out,
which would also get rid of the happy face, if the balloon is a solid and not
clear.  (is there a prize for "longest run-on sentence"?)  I was going to
suggest an 11" black round for the ball, but I like the idea of the super-agate
better.  Hey (!)  ...that makes *at least* 2 good posts on the balloon stacker
list (counting the famous "cleavage post" that I still haven't seen).  Maybe I
should sign up after all...   nah.
  (Heh-heh... every time I read someone calling it "the balloon stacker" list,
it cracks me up!)
