While I'm reminiscing I was reminded of an incident on my eighth grade school trip to Washington DC/New York. My friends and I were sitting in a food court at the New York Wharf and someone brought up tampons. We goaded the only female around into buying one for us from the girls bathroom dispensing machine. Someone carried it around until one night when everyone was in the hotel swimming pool (your predictions are wrong). We unwrapped it and smothered it in Code Red Mountain Dew, leaving it in a snack machine. We came back five minutes later and it was gone. No one knows what happened to it.
