deleted_user 12/30/2008

and who is carrying the basket?

deleted_user 12/30/2008

JUMP OUT!!! The only hand baskets rides I have ever heard about go straight to hell.lol

Alphonsus 12/30/2008

Is it that simple? Just jump out of the basket? It kinda comfy though, and it *feels* safe in here. And what kind of dangers will I face if I get out?

Oh well, what the hell. Hell doesn't sound like a very fun place from all reports.

*jumps out into frying pan*

Alphonsus 12/30/2008

* Climbs out of fire into hot pot of boiling water. A bit warmer than I usually like my hot tubs. *

Yummie - fried Yoda for breakfast :))

Perhaps a compromise is in order here. Stay in the cozy basket if you must. But try steering the basket in a different direction so you end up where you want/need to be in the end. Even a slight adjustment in direction now can make a big difference in your final destination.

here's some ice cubes if you need them

deleted_user 12/30/2008

You're really silly, Alphonus, I really like all of your silly posts. We all need something silly to laugh at to take our minds off of things. HUGS. Dawn

I don't WANT to be a fried yoda. Or boiled and covered in butter sauce. I just want to go back to my nice warm basket and curl up for a while to sleep. Maybe I can get the hand that's carrying me to change direction later.

Be careful jumping out of the hand basket.

I jumped out . . . . and landed in a rocket powered sled.
