Yes, folks. I can't believe it is actually true, but someone has made a kids inflatable slide out of the Titanic sinking.
Allow me to remind you all that the sinking took the lives of 1490 people. Yet someone decided that it would be fun to slide down it. Do they, I wonder, hold the kids heads under some water for 20 minutes for added realism? Perhaps throw them in a refrigerated pool?
Who the hell decided that would be a good idea? That is one of the sickest things I have seen...
[edit: Ooooh, you can buy one for yourself At 'Fun-makers.com'... Nice.

There's one of those in Yarmouth as well, you know, that place you were supposed to go last weekend, before you thought sodding off to the states was a good idea.
"yes kids, you too, can relive the horror and despair of the tragedy of 1912. plus, if you call the number on your screen right now, we'll throw in a giant broken-seal bottle of Tylenol with its cool menthol flavor that refreshing hint of cyanide..."
They had one of these at a street fair in Berlin yesterday. I've actually seen them quite often, and have never thought anything of it... but of course you're right, it is very odd.
just looking at it again, it occurred to me to wonder how far down they dug for the Iceberg part of it...
Oh man. I just had a great idea for a slide. Big metal one, kids get cardboard to slide on that have bombs printed on them... at the bottom, we create an inflatable Beirut!
They can scream and play and pretend to be Israeli bombs!
I'm sure I already posted a comment on here. Although there's every chance I deleted it by mistake with my new stoopid AOL webbrowser. Anyway, what I was going to say was this makes me laugh, in a black-humour kind of way :-)
