I have no idea what the original meaning of "zero edge pool" was but I'd be all over this. I'd also pay an extra $10 to the locals to tie a rope around my ankles so I could hang over the edge.

And just in case I'd give my travel companions another $200 so that they could pay the locals to pull me back up.

Next September, at the earliest.

I have no idea what the original meaning of "zero edge pool"...

Alex... You disappoint me. I thought you knew everything!

Zero edge (or infinity) pool (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity_pool)

Wow. I especially like the one from the other side. You can see the rock that juts out into the falls, behind which the people swim.

Okay, swimming and lounging in the pool looks cool.

Leaning over and standing on the edge looks insane.

I wonder how many people think it looks cool until they get out there.

I'd so do this. And, I'd hang over the edge. At least no one would know when I piss my pants.

Wow, I had no idea something like that could be done. Kinda makes me want to grab a barrel, though......

Yeah, HUH?


I mean, neat cite. But where did I miss the tangent that led from Victoria Falls Zero Edge Pool -to- Robots and Girls???



:confused:

Well duh: It is because the first robot and hot chick pictorial was shot in the Victoria Falls area by Robert Finkelmeier in 1947. I thought everyone knew that!

Right, what he said. I mean the zero edge pool was cool and all that, but it doesn't get better than robots and girls.

You might have a problem with short circuiting.

Wow, that's... really stupid.

Reminds me of something I saw in Big Lots today though: inflatable cooler carrier. EG: inflatable boat for your cooler, you know, in case you plan on floating down any rivers some time soon and wanna make sure the martinis are still at the proper temp.

Alex, you crack me up! Of course I have to give you kudos for having the forethought to leave extra money with your friends to make sure you come back up!

That looks really cool but I'd probably be afraid to fall over. Who knows, maybe I'll be brave by the time I make it there.
