Em . . . . then what about all the white orbs? Are you gonna try to tell us that that's just white paint and not ghostly orbs? And what about the face of that scary godawful looking old crone peeking out at us from the bottom left side of the screen?

Oh. Excuse me. That's just my own reflection in the monitor. 8`-(

I bet they shot the patients with paintballs as a form of torture.

My darlin' Jo, you obviously know what I'm talking about here. Thank you for your supportive back-up testimony regarding the atrocious paintball cruelty suffered at the hands of gaming staff.

I know, it was so horrible and sad, the pain and paint they suffered.

As if it were mere coincidence that the word "pain" makes up most of the word "paint"!

Ha! And people think we are so stupid not to have seen this!

That's why they won't let me buy spray paint at wallmart. I'll kill someone with it.

I love the leaves creeping in from the left side...What was crumpled up on the left near the radiator?

And Lynne, my stomach now hurts thanks to you making me laugh too hard! >: [ ; ) But I like it.

LOL good idea Jo. You know there was really a story in the Weekly World News (It's all true I tell you! lol) about some company that sued to hire snipers to shoot employees with paint balls if the employees attempted to leave their desks. Well! There's the truth for you! First they tortured the insane with paint balls, now onto the working! :D

somehow it is almost as creepy to think about "sane" people playing paintball in an abandoned asylum as it is to think about the insane people there before it closed.

Again, a super corridor shot. The color is very well done, it delivers.

*trying not to sound disrespectful for the beautiful buildngs*

It's true! Abandoned hospitals (and decommisioned war vessels) are the Best places to play paintball!

Another outstanding image. The greeness, what is that? I was always concious when I used the paint ball torture to my charges that in no way would use leaded paint. I could in no iway be able to pay off for the deadly sin. Because I was a compassionate staff fellow, I aways used latex, beside it had sorta a different effect. How sad it is for people to feel that way about the faithful.

Johnny Mac, you latex devil, I always knew there was a reason we liked you so much. ;-)

Johnny Mac, some of us (like me) are ALLERGIC to latex! I'd rather be tortured with lead paint, if you don't mind...

Actually they tortured the patient with Electric Shock. I know, my mother was a patient there in the early 70's for a few years.

I remember running on a call in an old mental hospital here, for a paintballer who had fallen and broken his leg. The major issue was, of course, the Sheriff's Dept. K-9 was still on the loose so we couldn't get in to get the dumbass. By the time we got into him, he had a couple of bite marks to add to his shattered tibia. Thats the price one pays for high adventure, I suppose.
