Ball in the toilet

I knew it was just more than just a large amount of sh*t clogging up the toilet because I plunged it 30 minutes without luck, spraying discolored water everywhere. I tried to use the snake but the it didn't bend sharp enough. I ran out of time, so I called a plumber. It turned out to be a blue ball clogging up the line. Jonathan probably flushed it down, not understanding the consequences of his action. It costed $130, but I try to laugh about it. I suppose such surprises should be expected when raising a couple of active sons, full of imagination and curiousity.
