entertained and amazed in that Fox's world's worst _______ sort of way
so for those of you who dont know, i'm been in new york for the past couple of days visiting taybin and generally hanging out. yesterday the two of us left his house and walked smack into the middle of the 3rd avenue festival. this seemed to draw justification from the simple existence of 3rd avenue as a reason to celebrate in the form of a enormous linear street fair running the length of 3rd avenue in Bay Ridge. the one notable occurrence, aside from taybin recieving a christian hiphop cd on the condition that the givers could pray for him, was this: i'm not going to actually say anything more on this; the words of others seem to sum things up properly.first exerps from he manufacturer: > Surviving The Titanic Super Slide challenges you to survive the climb > through the cabin area to the stern of the ship. Once you have made it > to the top of the stern of the Titanic there is one feat left to accomplish. > The wild 25’ ride down the deck of the awesome Dual Slide! This unit is definitely > one for your photo album. The spacious center cabin features an easy to climb > stairway with rails for safety.From an article in a titanic related website: > Millvina Dean, 90, was just nine weeks old when the liner struck an iceberg in > 1912, claiming the lives of more than 1,500 people. > She has branded the inflatable funfair attraction, which is based on the ship's > stern rearing into the air, as "disgusting". > The slide's manufacturers, Cutting Edge Creations, boasts that it `captures all > the excitement of the famed ocean liner on its maiden voyage'. > It offers a bouncy iceberg as an optional extra. > Miss Dean, from Woodlands, near Totton, who lost her father in the tragedy, said: > "This is very distressing.... > International sales director Robert Field said 475 of the £10,000 slides had been > sold in the last four years. > "When it first came out a few people were critical but you're never going to make > everyone happy," he said.and from a 'zine in Plattsburgh NY where one was displayed. > What is Plattsburgh going to sponsor next? How about the inflatable > Hindenburg at the next air show?
