HELCO

The charred remains of Helco Plaza. The previous night, a marching band led a torch-carrying parade out into the desert where an entire mini-mall had been erected, complete with name-brand franchise outlets (Starfuck's Coffee, Caca Bell, and a dozen others). Suddenly a flamethrower tank rolled into the plaza and billowed out 50' long gouts of flame, while giant killer robots rolled into the plaza and began demoloshing every building in sight. The plaza was soon reduced to a pile of flaming rubble. Meanwhile, a man dressed as Jesus in a cowboy hat climbed up the side of a 60' high office building with a glowing neon HELCO sign on top. Once at the top, he lit a roadflare, tossed it into one of the windows, and then jumped onto a cable and slid for his life as the tower exploded into a ball of white hot flame and collapsed, roaring and bellowing, to the ground. The audience cheered, coughed, wept, ran for their lives, and a wonderful night was had by all.
