SHAVING CREAM WARS
Battle 1

After hearing something going on in the hall sometime in March, I opened my door to find the 1st (unsanctioned) battle of the SHAVING CREAM WARS. Here Todd attacks roommate Rob L. as newcomer Matt Aptekar helps in the endeavor. Phil reaches out for the can of shaving cream that Matt is playing with. Speaking of playing with, Rob C. stands off to the right. . . Rob, what are you doing? haha

Phil laughs and Todd watches as Rob L. makes his way to the bathroom in defeat.
Matt, Phil, Rob L., Todd, & Rob C.
After the battle comes the clean-up. They did a pretty good job. If you weren't there, you wouldn't know what took place.

Above, Zalewski blinds me as Todd and Lebwohl watch in amusement. Someone does the same to Caruso in the background. Above right, I scale the wall back to my room. Right, I can see again! :-)

Above left, Caruso, Zalewski, Matt Lieberman, Cardinale, Todd, Aptekar, Me, & Laura Cherney. Friedman kneels in the front and Aptekar's hand blocks an infiltrator from the 4th floor. (Hey, where's Phil O., Lebwohl, and Shauger?). Above, same people minus Friedman who's knocked out of frame. Left, Todd.

Above, Cherney, Me, Caruso, & Friedman watch as Todd gives Phil O. a huge wedgy. Above right, Phil O., Caruso, and Todd. Left, Clean up begins. Shauger watches from the other end of the hall as Phil O. works on the wall, Friedman heads to the bathroom, and Aptekar comes out of the laundry room. All had went well till someone turned it into a food fight. We're talking peanutbutter, cup-o-noodles, oatmeal, and pasta. Made cleaning the rug difficult and left the hall smelling bad for a long time. Below, Todd trying the only thing that would get the food up off the floor, Zalewski vacuming afterwards, Todd mopping up the bathroom, and what the hall looked like after we were done. Could you tell that a shaving cream war took place? I think not.

All in all, it was a very successful program. Besides all those that participated, we probably had an equal amount of spectators. Laura Cherney came to take pictures for me and wound up participating. Sean and Narielle then took her place for me. (Thanks again you 3).

There were a few casualties. Rob C. got shaving cream in his eyes and they burned for days. Shauger banged his knee on a doorway. And I gashed my knee open. You see, one of the spectators that didn't want to get involved wound up picking up a water balloon and throwing it at us. Sorry, I wasn't going to let her get away with that. If you don't want to get dirty, then don't participate PERIOD. Don't start throwing stuff and then expect to walk away clean. I ran after her and, in order to catch up, did a kneeling slide. It was worth it though, I got her. :-)

I think next year there will be a few alterations. First, it will take place outside. Second, we'll minus the shaving cream. Instead, we'll stock up on water guns, water balloons, and whatever else holds water. WATER WARS. Shaving Cream was fun but I don't think I'll ever get the "ok" to proceed with that one again. Hahaha.
