You see, if you're bigger than Woody, you can't go in, and that's just not fair.
Woody, in case you don't know, is the guy in theme parks and the like, with the little marker by which you much measure yourself.
When I was younger, being bigger than Woody was certainly a turning point in my life, as I could now go on all of te big rides, the rollercoasters and the like. What I didn't see at the time, was that I was leaving behind the world of the ball pool and the adventure playground.
When in Planet Zoom with my children the other day, I was thinking how cool it would be if there was something like this for adults. You know, huge great ball balls, which you can only go in if you're old enough, so there are no little kids about that you might do serious damage to in a ball pool.
But why stop with adult ball pools? What we'd all like (admit it) is adult sized space hoppers. You know what I'm on about, those big rubber balls, with little ears to hold onto. I'd bounce around on my orange hopper for ages, it was great. I'm too big for them now, so why not make them bigger?
Pogo sticks would be cool too.
I reckon if you opened up fun parks for adults, that consisted of ball pools, huge slides, ropes to swing on, space hoppers, pogo-sticks and the like it would be really successful.
Just because we're no longer children, do we really have to leave behind all that is childish? Of course not, this is an old fashioned idea. It's now becoming more acceptable for an adult to have a games console, soon enough it will be the norm to see grown men bouncing to work on space hoppers. You mark my works.

Work is good, if you can make yourself better, come out with something to be proud of. I could never be proud of myself for working out what the differentiation of cos x is.
-sin x, if you were wondering. :0) I think, anyway. Can't be bothered to check.
I do so much to try and get my life out of the gutter it seems to be in... and nothing ever comes. Bloody heck.
Ah well. I've suddenly found a new excitement for the Gamecube, I feel like I'm 16 all over again. :0)

I miss my childhood :)
All the toys, imagination and cartoons have been replaced with formulae, hate and too much thinking.

I know people my age that can still get into those damn ball parks. I hate them.
Adventure playground. It's a shame, as children, we're encouraged to develop our imagination, to have fun, to pretend... and then as soon as we're adults we have it taken away from us. Swines, big damn swines.
It's like banning anyone over the age of 14 from watching cartoons.

To my eternal shame I went on a holiday last year to Ibiza, and one of my favourite things about the place was this bar that had a 'kiddies' play area. At a certain time each evening it would be deserted by children and monopolised by those more deserving (ie, me). This was probably the most fun ever: trampolines, bouncy castles, crazy golf, and - best of all - a mini-JCB with a scoop and stuff. Honestly I had more fun in that place than in any of the hideous bars filled with vomiting sixteen-year olds trying to lose their virginity. So, yeah, maybe these children-oriented places should work on a shift-system: restricting those under 18 to two hours on a Monday morning or something.
