Farewell Luncheon

[marval]

The staff at an office were hosting a farewell luncheon for a retiring colleague. As the group prepared to go to the restaurant, they found that they couldn't fit the giant balloon they had purchased for the guest of honour into the car.

Determined to bring it along, they simply held the balloon out of the window as they drove to the luncheon location.

However they weren't prepared for the glares and dirty looks they were getting from pedestrians and adjoining cars at every intersection.

As the long line of traffic in front of their vehicle began to turn, they discovered that their car was right behind a long funeral procession.

There was really nothing they could do but hold on to the balloon with its large farewell message:

"GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN"
