Our science teacher just took us out in the parking lot to pour water over an inclined wall of soil and measure how much eroded out. <br /><br />On the other hand, your ride reminds me of one my husband strapped me into in the seventies in which my greatest fear was that I'd barf on my own self by ralphing at the top end and catching it on the bottom. <br /><br />How I ended up a science major after seventh grade science is beyond me. We'd learn a little about what happens during a nuclear strike, and then do drills about ducking under our formica tabletops and clasping our little finners behind our pencil necks.Murr Brewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03422638986410813520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-25554512450680979022010-05-20T21:07:22.811-04:002010-05-20T21:07:22.811-04:00i found your blog on blog catalog and your descrip...i found your blog on blog catalog and your description (jedi stuff, zombie,etc) sounds like my husband in girl form so i had to read.<br />very cute blog you have, girl :)christinahttp://christinaslittleworldtwo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-11110129547302499322010-05-19T22:10:59.260-04:002010-05-19T22:10:59.260-04:00Excuse me.

We have something at our Kennywood Park called "the 360" and I just laugh at it as I go by. I did the Looping Starship in my wide-eyed youth.

Last time I was on it (at the invincible age of 16), I spent the next ten minutes throwing up in the nearby bushes.

We wore shoelaces the thickness of large band-aids, but didn't tie our shoes... <br /><br />Anything was possible. :)Jenn Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12899242535971792424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-81833842270571404492010-05-19T10:25:36.656-04:002010-05-19T10:25:36.656-04:00Heh.

I bet Mr. Barnes was rather pleased with himself, if only for the duration of the ride.<br /><br />Also, what is up with that creepy faux-futuristic music in the video? It reminds me of the music used on "Gumby" when Gumby went to the moon. Only there was less screaming.<br /><br />"Gumby On the Moon":<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWYYkF6DOnkJD at I Do Thingshttp://idothings.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-69700885277633964032010-05-19T08:46:19.116-04:002010-05-19T08:46:19.116-04:00Moooog- Heh, I think you probably wouldn't hav...Moooog- Heh, I think you probably wouldn't have slipped from the harness to a gooey death or anything.<br /><br />But how's your physics knowledge? :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10883854503294092142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-38984426677614567932010-05-19T08:31:18.576-04:002010-05-19T08:31:18.576-04:00I WANT TO GO ON IT.
