Surely you jest


Expensive merry-go-round
Originally uploaded by That Will Guy.
Took Ava downtown to screw around at the Children's Museum today and on the way back to the car we stopped at the perpetual carnival that is always next door to the Space Needle. She enjoyed the classic merry-go-round and then said whe wanted to go on this stupid thing. So we go over there and give the ticket Nazi two tickets ($1 each) so she can go on it. Of course she isn't going to ride it by herself so I walk out there to go on it with her. "Excuse me sir, you have to give me 2 more tickets if you want to ride with her." Arg!! So I give the chick two more tickets and try to strap Ava in. Well...sometime between walking through the gate and getting to one of the seats she has changed her mind about going on this ride. No amount of convincning was going make her let me strap her and myself in. So the lady comes over to escort us out of the hazard zone. On our way through the exit gate she informs me, "oh, and we don't give ticket refunds". WTF? I barely even touched the friggin' ride. Worst $4 I ever spent.
