If you Ever Get a Chance to Do This :
we had a team building - fun day event with the guys from my work yesterday. 14 guys. we went to this big games complex to do laser-tag and a couple of other things.
well the laser tag was ok - fun for a while but it got a bit tedious and everyone was cheating anyway .. but then we did something i've never seen before .. i think they called it whiffle-ball or something like that .. you ride around on bumpercars with a scoop ... and the idea is to get the ball and throw it at these big targets on either end of the arena. sort of like basketball combined with lacross - and bumper cars. i cant begin to describe how sore i am today. i found that i had total control driving these things - something i couldnt do worth a damn last time i was on a bumper car .. but i was bombing around - backwards and forwards like i was born on one of these things .. so you get going fast - the ball is on the floor rolling just in front of you - so you're chasing hard - reaching with the scoop .. and WHAM ... you either hit the wall or someone creams into you. i hit guys and got hit in return so hard i thought i was going to lose fillings. i was too big for the car so every time i hit something - my already messed up knee was getting tortured. so today i'm sore as hell .. the knee - the back, other various muscles from bracing for impact .. but for an hour yesterday i got to be a little kid again .. absofuckinglutely loved it. if you have one of these near you - and haven't done it - get on this immediately.

sounds like good times
I got seriously jostled around and wrenched my neck in the bumper cars at the Santa Cruz boardwalk, but I loved every bit of it (until the next morning). I feel you, Urge There definitely is a price to be paid for recaptured glee...and it's worth it

That sounds like so much fun. :)
We had one of those team building things at work too, though not nearly as fun as that. Ours had stupid puzzles much more arguing, but we got a free lunch!
