Birthday Attack
PukaBuddy is currently engaged in a full-throttle surprise birthday attack on his good friend here at work. BirthdayTarget (BT) has been notified that he must attend a last-minute meeting wherein he is a principal player. PukaBuddy has notified others to join the meeting where they will start a PowerPoint presentation that quickly turns from scheduled agenda to a goofy video clip of BT and a signature page from his friends wishing him a happy birthday. PukaBuddy has even gotten a personalized cake and huge tub of ice cream waiting in the office fridge.
However, when he learned of the meeting, BT grew enraged and fired off emails to several of his superiors and others who were supposed to attend the meeting. Luckily, PukaBuddy received this email and was able to quickly call all the BigWigs, letting them in on the attack. BT was so incensed that he even marched down to PukaBuddy's puka and gave him an earful. To escalate matters, BT happened to see an email subject heading on PukaBuddy's computer that contained his name. The email was about the birthday attack, so naturally PukaBuddy had to cover. BT now thinks that PukaBuddy is talking about him behind his back and has been reported to have been venting to others about PukaBuddy's despicable behavior. Further reports indicate that BT is planning on going AWOL around 1430 when the meeting was to begin. Luckily, powerful allies of the birthday attack have indicated to BT that he will attend and officers are stationed to intercept him should he bolt.
Countdown is at two hours. Should be interesting. :)
Update @ 1500: After BT arrived to the meeting and promptly threatened to turn around and leave if the teleconference wasn't started immediately, the party got started. When the PowerPoint got to the slide with the video clip of himself, he turned a shade of white and didn't even notice the huge birthday cake I carried until PukaBuddy turned him around and pointed. After he was able to wrap his head around everything, a grand time was had by all.
