Bonsai Show Errupts In Chaos! (Dateline: California)
Reuters News Service reported that a quiet California city errupted in chaos and violence early today. It seems that a bonsai exhibition was being held and things were going well when the whole scene disintegrated into an ugly clash between newbies and adepts.
"One minute things are just great;" one witness recalled... "the trees are beautiful, everyone is enjoying the beauty and getting along just fine, when up pulls a few SUV's, out jumps a few experienced bonsai artists with their nice bonsai and it ruined everything." The poor man began to sob.
It seems that these adept ruffians, led by one Walter Pall, crashed this peaceful bonsai exhibition and actually began to display their own trees, which they had brought in their SUV's.
"Of all the nerve," observed one witness, "To actually show up with their quality bonsai and then just put them next to our trees. I'm outraged!
Clearly at this point, the bonsai exhibition was ruined. All of the original exhibitors, after having prepared for days, had to pack it in and remove their trees.
"I mean, there's no reason for these adepts to go mixin' with us. They should keep to their own kind, I says." Fumed one angry exhibitor.
The outrageous and malevolent exhibition of these adepts' trees was not enough, by some accounts. There are unconfirmed reports that one individual, identified as Andy, actually began to set fire to some of the trees in the exhibit, just to make room for his own trees (which weren't all that good according to some). This was fairly indicative of the horrible behavior of these ruffians as they began to show their bonsai in the midst of what was once a peaceful exhibit.
Yes, this is the kind of horror and chaos that can happen when newbies and adepts mix. There's no reason for it, but it happens. We've got to stop this kind of senseless exhibition where newbies trees and those of more experienced enthusiasts are exhibited in the same place. No good can come of it.
One newbie exhibitor said, as he walked away in tears, "It's just not right. It's just not right. Now I'll never be able to show my trees."
