11. DizzyLand

11 DizzyLand The Presidents' Day Challenge was such a success that our whole class got to go to DizzyLand. We went on all the rides. I almost threw up three or four times. It was awesome.

One of the coolest parts of DizzyLand is the Wall of Presidents. It's an exhibit with life-size statues of all the presidents. The coolest part is that they're robots. So they can nod their heads, wave their hands, and even give speeches. The president robots look really real. The Abraham Lincoln robot was giving his speech when the weirdest thing in the history of the world happened. Lincoln is Emily's favorite president, and I guess she got a little too close to him, because the statue started to topple over. It fell against President Truman. Truman bumped into President Nixon, and Nixon knocked over President Grant. The next thing we knew, the rest of the presidents were going down like dominoes. We got to see it live and in person. You should have been there!

"Watch out!" shouted Alexia. "Help! The presidents are attacking!" shouted Ryan. "Run for your lives!" shouted Neil. In the end, the president robot statues were all over the floor and we had to crawl out from under them. That was weird. Well, that's pretty much what happened. Maybe Millard Fillmore will flush his toilet. Maybe grown-ups will stop saying blah blah blah blah all the time. Maybe President Bush will stop throwing up on people. Maybe Porky's Pork Sausages will get a new jingle. Maybe President Obama will go back to scooping ice cream at Baskin-Robbins. Maybe President Taft will go on Weight Watchers. Maybe next year we'll figure out a way to knock February off the calendar. But it won't be easy! Oh, I almost forgot! We got another prize

for winning the Presidents' Day Challenge. Besides bragging rights, a year's supply of Porky's Pork Sausages, and the trip to DizzyLand, there was that secret prize. But I'm not going to tell you what it was. Okay, okay, I'll tell you. It was cake.*
