amusement

i've noticed that there are a lot of people knitting! stupendous! i need a new scarf - well, not really but a new one would be simply shnazzy!

this morning's obsessions with looking for halloween adventures beyond the exhausted "haunted hayrides" led me to a few interesting websites (1 2 3). i'd want to hit a few of these places (especially ESP) but i'm not sure how long listening to sappy ghost stories and dealing with the usual predictable scare tactics can maintain my interest. i discussed with jason if he'd rather just exploring some interesting "freaky" places, which eventually steered our conversation to chippewa lake park which is an old abandoned amusement park. having been closed since it's 100th anniversary sometime in the 1970's has left it in a frightening state of disarray, not to mention being at the mercy of vandals and arsonists. since it's in the middle of nowhere it's probably a safe place, but its very exiting to think what adventures might procure exploring such a place in the dead of night!

if you are interesting in learning and seeing picture of other abandoned amusement parks, check some out here.

my carpal tunnel has been acting up. regular use of my GBA SP and playing FFTA is probably the main culprit - having less than stellar discipline when it comes to playing a fantastic game only a few minutes instead of several hours a sessions probably doesn't help either.

This is cool, you have to try it. I guessed 54661, and this game guessed it! See it here - http://www.funbrain.com/guess/

Have you seen this before? It's a number guessing game: http://www.amblesideprimary.com/ambleweb/mentalmaths/guessthenumber.html. I guessed 42457, and it got it right! Pretty neat.
