theJEDMAN NATION-A New Wave ManifestoDocumenting the JED Experience Wednesday, July 30, 2003I followed up my Spanish adventure with two fabulous days in Branson, Missouri. Branson, the country music Las Vegas of the Ozarks. I didn't go for the country music. No, I went for the Go-Karts. There is only one reason to go to Branson and that reason is Go-Karts. So, I went from cool European vacation to riding Go-Karts in Branson. I dropped $10 on the Wild Woody Go-Kart Track. It was awsome. It was a wood track that had ramps, curves, downhills, uphills, etc. As I was waiting to go, I saw the sign that said, "Do not ride this ride if you have neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, heart condition, etc. This is a good time for the power pack to activate. So, I drove slow and scared. Little kids were passing me and ramming me. My brakes didn't work. On the downhill curve I thought I was going to turn it over, but I survived. This was going to be an expose on Go-Kart tracks in Branson, but one ride on one track was enough. So, I went to Gilley's and had a couple of Texas Draws. I was the only one in the bar. I was partying by myself. It was a long way from Oviedo. The last place I had a beer by myself. From Oviedo to Branson, I have no fear in having a beer by myself. theJEDMAN .: posted by Jed 9:33 PM |
