Hello, Spaceman

Today I’ve discovered a new sort of bondage: being locked into the cradle of a roller-coaster, the sort that hangs you horisontally beneath a railing and sends you spinning in loops, like a human stunt plane.

The reason I went on it today was Richard Branson’s unveiling of Virgin Galactic and its program for space tourism. I don’t think I’m going to space any time soon, as much as I’d like to… but the roller-coaster was the nearest thing. I honestly didn’t think of its bondage potential to start with.

However, when a strapping young man gave me a hand up into the cradle, maneuvered my neck into a leather brace, shifted my feet into the correct position, locked the thick metal bars behind me – why, I could think of nothing else but being completely in his power. Well, his, and the great machine’s that he was about to launch.

All that was missing was a good flogging, once I was so conveniently immobilised. I was sentenced to several minutes of being thrown around in the air, instead. I wonder how many people who go on this ride imagine they’ve been sent there for punishment?

EDITED: The picture, as requested. No, I don’t look like I’m about to get punished. On the other hand, it could be the grimace of pain.

    Dear Adele,
    GADZOOKS!
    I didn’t know you were a Rockin’ Atomic Space Bird! How 50’s retro of you. Too bad you didn’t take photos. I know all of us would love to see you in such a precarious position.
    Just think, if you become an astronaut, you could be the first to establish true “Sub-Space-Travel.”
    LOL!
    (Wow…is that statement as dumb as I think it is? Oh well, I am getting old here. Please forgive me).

    Luv ya,

    Vincent

    I do have a picture, actually, but I haven’t got around to downloading it from the camera yet.

    Mmm, SubSpace Travel. Yes, plese :)

    It is an interesting contraption you’ve been strapped into. It would be even more interesting if there was someway to convert it into the spanking machine/carnival ride from hell!

    Oh wow. That looks like too much fun. I think I need to play on it! x

    There’s one at Canada’s Wonderland (near Toronto) that’s called The Behemoth. It’s just about the opposite idea. There’s basically no carriage. There’s the seat… and nothing beside it. It gives the impression of carrying you into nothingness.

    WOW!

    What a fabulously looking contraption (and yes, you look absolutely fabulous in it).

    Here’s a challenge for you, sweet Adele:

    1. Take a naughty cohort with you on the ride.
    2. Just before lift-off have said cohort pull down your pants, just enough to uncover your beautiful bottom.
    3. Have said cohort reach over and spank you during the ride.

    Man, I would pay some major Yen to see that!
    LOL!!!

    Worst case scenario: you’ll know how it feels to go bare-ass into space (or get arrested for “incredibly decent exposure” in public).

    LOL!!!

    Much luv,

    Vincent
