Dorm Revolt

Last weekend, in a high school dorm in Colorado, something strange and exciting happened. There are normally about one-hundred-ten or so guys in the dorm, however, several outings were happening this weekend: the manditory freshman campout, the manditory sophomore campout, junior outdoor education (supposedly required), and an open weekend. Without any sophomores or freshmen, only a handful of juniors, and a few seniors, the dorm only had about twenty-five guys in it. Now, on Saturdays in this dorm, power is shut off at midnight. The handful of guys in the dorm were really looking forward to having all-night power because the peoply who were required to go to bed early, were not in the dorm. Not only were there less students in the dorm, all except one of the deans were on the different trips. The remaining dean was being quite stubborn about the power situation, so all of the guys began to plot together. Together they planned a coup de tat, a revolution if you will. Let's just say water balloons were filled and baracades were built. Somehow the dean recieved word of the coup and made his own fortifications: he locked himself in his office, hid under the desk and turned out the lights. The guys laid siege to the office for several hours before the dean finally agreed to surrender. After a few minutes of negotiation (and torture) he relented and flipped the breaker to the on position. However, water and electricity don't mix too well. Instead of turning power on to the dorm, power went out everywhere on campus. The guys saw this, and sulked back to there rooms. They had worked so hard for their reward, a reward that never came, sadly. The dean was just happy they were going back to their rooms and were out of his office. For some reason, no one claims to know why, he wasn't in his office the next morning and all of his stuff was gone. Strangely, he was never heard from again.
