Do any of your local malls or amusement parks have these things?

While we were at Oak Park Mall in Kansas City, the 2 older kids did some jumping. They had a blast!
Because of her size, Princess Peanut drew more of a crowd reaction as she bounced very, very, very high in the air, and then added a few flips as her courage grew. I alternated between encouraging the kids to keep going higher, and being a Dad worried about them getting hurt.
Still, money well spent!

We had one of those at our state fair this summer. My niece dared me. She dint think I'd do it. Way fun.

That looks like fun!
The thing I most want to try, though, is one of those indoor, faux sky-diving places that keeps you aloft with an upward blast of air from a jet engine. I found one in south Denver, but never had a chance to go.

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

The Bungie Trampoline looks cool, too, Appa. But that YouTube video of it isn't the greatest. I'm sure a video of Princess Peanut doing it would have been way cooler!

There's even an on-line coupon for $10 off the price.
Whoohoo! Who else is ready to fly with Marley and me?

Has there been any definite decision on dates?
