Pictures always run behind the narrative. Here's pictures from Story Land again.
Dinosaurs! They've got sculptures and animatronics at Story Land. And, yeah, in some directions you'd barely know there was a park there.
Rory! The train for Roar-A-Saurus, which has a nice, attractive shaped train. It's a really, really fun roller coaster and it doesn't hurt that the train cars are cute.
Dr Geyser's Remarkable Raft Ride! The ride is themed to a turn-of-the-century inventor with his weather-controlling mechanisms and the ride promises to make you wet, for example, by sending you under the rain machine.
Story Land character totem pole. And, off to the side, a clown that I think is an even older park icon. There's a Heidi-themed cabin in the background, up the hill and to the right of the totem pole, to the left of the tilted house.
Throughout lunch these two park workers were clearly trying to apply Story Land decals to the wall in the international food court. They sometimes called in someone else to consult on the work. But they never did anything while I was watching.
And so what's been going on in my humor blog? This is what:
- Cold Comforts, last week's major piece, about the cold I've pretty much gotten over.
- Nothing Is Happening In Apartment 3-G: Could Bringing In Artists Help? showing that better artwork would indeed help the sad strip.
- Statistics Saturday: The New York Stock Exchange Standings As Of Friday, 2 October 2015, and you won't be surprised to know Goldman-Sachs has clinched the division.
- Statistics Saturday for September: People Want To Understand What’s Wrong With Apartment 3-G, reviewing the humor blog's readership, which is increasing.
- September’s Scraps, bits of writing free to whoever can use them.
- Remembering Dustin Hoffman, Who Is Fine As Far As We Know and trying to remember what Sphere was about.
- Caption This! Bride Of Voyager, a picture with some words affixed.
- The Things You Can’t Tell Your LLC, this week's major piece, about corporations wanting me to share my values.
