The air suddenly becomes thick, as if something is about to take place. A hush rises over the crowd in anticipation. Someone points to the front of the room. "Hey, where did Eric go?" "Don't know. We're so far back here I didn't even notice he was gone" "Yeah, I think he's been missing for couple days now."
As if on cue, a quiet, raspy voice from just outside the doors can be heard, crying softly for help. Everyone rushes to see what's going on. There lies Eric, struggling in vain to pull himself, crawling, into the room. He clenches a single sheet of paper in his hand. "What the...?" "Someone, what's on that paper?" Train grabs the paper and reads it to himself..."What's this suppose to mean? 'Triple Loser'?" CT grabs the paper and whacks train over the head. "You moron, it says 'L3'. Why, it simply can't be? Can it?" Eric nods weakly.
As comprehension dawns, the chears begin. "He did it!" "WooHoo" "Our very own CPA level 3 judge!!!" Eric soon finds himself being tossed around as he is carried through the room. Finally, he is tossed limply into his chair.
"Wow, he's really shot, isn't he."
train: "Coat?" - Mindy whacks him over the head.
The CPA awards then return to normal...
(Sorry for the diversion. I figured this was the most appropriate thread to make the announcement. Thanks to everyone for their support)
