Well, the excuse given afterwards for waking up parts of the camp that
were supposed to be "quiet" was "radical self-expression."
I later came up with a way of radically expressing myself regarding the
bullhorn. Seize the bullhorn, drop trou, and shower it. And I made it
clear that if I'm ever pregnant and awakened by a bullhorn at an ungodly
hour ever again, I *will* do that.
