What I do for my family's entertainment!

Took the wife and kids to the Maryland Science Center on Saturday.
Just got pictures back of me in a "compromising position".
They had a physics of the circus display, including a bungee trapeze.
So dummy me, I decided to try it. Yes, me. All 240 pounds of me. So here is the image captured for eternity:



Yeah, that's attractive. That is true grace.
Only problem with that gadget: it gave me a mega-wedgie!

lol...I would have done it, too...and I'm a chick and have more bulk on me than you do. Sounds like you had fun, and that's all that matters.

I had a great time. Honestly I did! I even did a back flip! I was very happy with myself.

Looks like it was made to give wedgies! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

PS - 240 is not fat, it's robust! (At least that's what I tell all the Italians I am when they call me fat!)

I imagine it WAS fun!

Your face however looks like you're in pain! hope that was a laff!

Mental Note to Self: Do NOT try the Bungee Trapeze! Mega Wedgie!  Ouch!

I am currently using my arm strength to coax my ponderous bulk to a speed so I can try a back flip. And the wedgie. All my body weight, including the G forces, were concentrated on that strap criss-crossing my inner thighs.

Post v-word you won't want to be doing that for a while. lol


Truer words never spoken.

Looks like you were having fun though!!

Isn't it strange that the really fun things in life give us wedgies!!! ;~D

And to think I paid money for my kids to do the same thing at the Fun Frolic.

Notice the angle of the bungee cords for your son as compared to those holding up my ponderous bulk.

Load of hangin' meat, indeed!
