I took it as my liberty to spend a day at a local amusement park. As usual, inspite of my minor efforts to hire people to join me in merriment, I was forced to enjoy by myself. It was smaller a hindrance to pleasure than I thought. Granted, it would have been probably a few ounces more enjoyably with a good friend with a similar outlook in enjoyment (it begins with a fear of death). I just have to admit I’m just not charming enough. The day was warm (borderline hot) and this being a weekday in June, the place only had short queues. The place was filled with happy, young people, and it all made me a bit nostalgic.
The rides didn’t make that much of a impression, but there was enough of gut-wrenching -sensation to feel pleased. The amusement park in question is located on a narrow cape, and all the rollercoasters are limited on a small space, in turn limiting the speed and g-forces of the rides. In fact, one of the new rides, where you lie down on your stomach, face down, was quite uncomfortable due to this restriction in space. It was all sharp turns after another.
Hi there! I was delighted to find out that Kimmo’s block is back in business.
Keep it scrollin’.

PS. Would be great to hear your analysis on the brilliant Battlestar Galactica tv series, now showing on Finnish television. What makes it so damn good?
You, Sir, will go down in history as the very first (human) commenter on Kimmo’s Blog 2.0. I salute you. May your MySpace-powered musical endeavours be long-lasting and plenty in cowbells.
On Battlestar Galactica, I must confess I haven’t watched it (I assume here that you mean the contemporary version of it), my only excuse is that it broadcasts on so ungodly hours. If I have to guess on reasons of its goodness I’d have to guess Edward James Olmos?
