In L.A. you can take a Sky Slide from the 70th to the 69th floor of the tallest building west of Chicago.

I'd do it.

It looks like fun!!!!

Girl, I was right there with you until I looked at the picture.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Wish I had one in my house.........tired of all of these stairs. Oh, wait! ........... How would I get back up from the basement? I guess that's where they get the phrase: 'Slippery slide', lol.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

lol...

At work we have escalators and they have been out of order for over 18 months, with the exception of a handful of days. We keep suggesting they just replace the escalators with slides but so far no luck!

I take the stairs.

No thanks! I used to get nervous climbing the steps to enter Old Main at my college!

I saw this on the news, and just now after watching the whole thing close up I actually got butterflies!
