sinker 0 #1 September 1, 2003 So we took the fam to the county fair tonight... wife and the oldest two kids, 6 and 4, and I went on the ferris wheel why my mom held the baby on the ground... the weirdest thing happened... i got freaked out nervous up there on that thing. I NEVER get like that. I've always loved rides. I fly for work weekly, no jitters. When I jump, only a little bit of anxiety, nothing at ALL like that ferris wheel. It was seriously unerving. What's up w/ that??? -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say it's because how dangerous ferris wheels are, I mean people are killed on those thing ALL the time, I'd stick to safer forms of enjoyment if I were you, like BASE jumping __________________________________________________ "Beware how you take away hope from another human being." -Oliver Wendell Holmes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bch7773 0 #8 September 2, 2003 or have you heard the horror stories about peoples hair getting caught in the machinery at the cheap carnival rides, and it nearly scalps them?
