on how to get these freakin' balloons out of a 75 foot tree.

I was wondering what the dogs were barking at out the front bay
window.

Now I know.

And I want them gone.

I'd suggest a half-trained monkey, but he's on his way to Asia today for a
Pacific Rim conference.

If he doesn't get back soon enough, I would suggest getting some of
those anchors which have bendable rods. The smallest available.
Tie it to a line and swing it up there. Might take a few tries.
And maybe a few anchors will get snagged up there. But an anchor is
prettier than a deflated balloon. If the anchors do get snagged, I'm
afraid you'll have to fence the trees in like they do with electrical
substations, and attach appropriate warning signs. "Caution! Falling
Anchors!"
