I was just out of college. I first remembered a book I read as a kid that concerned some folks making a balloon and basket to get over the wall. I think there was a movie made about it as well. I then thought what an odd thing this wall this day in age. On one side of the wall enjoyed of all things something as simple as a bananna. The other side did not. Strange indeed.
