Cannonball Run

Last night a big group of people from my dorm went tobogganing at The Chalet, which is part of Cleveland Metroparks. They have two 1,000 foot long refrigerated ice chutes, and up to four people at a time can ride a toboggan. It was very fun, and its existence should be more widely publicized.

After we got done tobogganing, we went out to eat at Mad Cactus . The food was pretty good, and we got to sit at a large round table, so everyone could talk to everyone else, which was nice. Also, the restaurant didn't mind doing separate checks, even though we had 8 people, which simplified things. Every time I go out to eat with a large group, where everyone wants a separate check, I start dreaming about the impending cashless society. With everyone paying using a smart card, and restaurant billing software that takes advantage of this, it should be much easier for everyone to simply pay their own bill without causing extra work for the restaurant. Alas, Cleveland does not yet have Octopus cards .
