Recall Terry's distress call
Indestructible Piñata
To Show that Violence is Never the Answer.
Another Halloween has come and gone, and again you hear horrible stories of old people threatened with terrible tricks unless they part with their hard earned candy.
Children today need to be taught that violence doesn't always pay. The indestructible piñata is the way to do this. The outer layer will be thick rubber designed to bend and deform elastically when attacked with sticks and brooms and other blunt objects. Inside there is also a layer of Kevlar to deflect any knife or gun damage from angered players. (Not that children should have guns or knives, but this would get frustrating after a while, whatever age you are) In fact, the only way to actually break the piñata would be to use incendiary devices such as grenades or bombs. But this would have the side effect of destroying the contents as well.
It's rumoured that by befriending the piñata and taking care of it, putting a stylish sombrero on its head and so on, that it may give you its contents of its own accord. Of course I have never had the patience or willpower to try this and it is largely seen as an urban legend.
In fact, as far as most people know, this could contain nothing or anything at all. ~ hidden truths, Nov 17 2005
