Gratuitous Mean Ol' Dad Posting

Slip n Slide.jpg

The thought that immediately crosses my mind whenever the possibility of one of these is mentioned is, "Ack! Keep that damned thing off the grass!"

This is well known around Orgle Manor, yet I've just learned that even as I type the gels are playing with one in the back yard.

"Grrrr, Argh!" I say.

Now that takes me back. I didn't even realize the Slip-'n-Slide was still being made; I assumed it had been banned, like all the rest of my childhood toys that were any fun at all.

Would you prefer that they set it up in the street?

Grass will grow again, but gels will only be little for a short time ....

Aside from the grass, it is a little PWT.

Like:
The purchase of the mobil home was sealed when the salesman threw in the slip and slide.
