Back in September, a group of Destructoid community members (a.k.a. the greatest human beings that have ever lived) pooled their hard-earned money to buy me a present. That present turned out to be a dolphin interaction program at Sea World. Basically, I was given the opportunity to study and swim with a bunch of dolphins for a few hours. It goes without saying that I was eternally grateful for the incredibly nice gift (if I ever have forty children, they will all be named after you guys). Unfortunately, due to a combination of a ridiculously busy schedule and the end of the dolphin swimming season, I never had a chance to redeem the amazing gift last year. Well ... the new season is just starting ... and I just reserved a spot to -- man, I can’t believe I am actually typing this -- swim with dolphins. So, it’s official: On February 21, 2009 I will finally get to experience something I have wanted to do my entire life. I know this sounds so dramatic, but for people that know me this is obviously a huge deal. Like, I-may-die-of-a-heart-attack-once-I-get-to-touch-one-of-these majestic-beasts huge. I will try to take as many pictures as possible once I make the drive down to San Diego in (OMG!) less than two weeks. Thanks again to the people that contributed to the gift. I am so excited I don’t think I can even type anymore. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

on the way down there.
You're going to be just a mess the whole trip.

My friend asked me if I’d ever swam with dolphins. I said, Yeah, of course. [Pause.] Wait. What distance are we talking about? [Pause.] From the dolphins. [Pause.] Because last time I was in the ocean, I’m pretty sure I swam with most of them. [Pause.] Think about it. [Pause. Pause. Pause.] All right.
That would suck.
That one.
God i`d love to see your face when you first meet them. Maybe a joyous tear will be shed? Enjoy meeting your brethren good sir ^_^
I wonder what a dolphin feels like?!
I'm sure we will see/hear all about it...
Have fun! =) Yee!
That's how I imagine you, during this experience.
Hope we get a play by play post of all the dolphiny goodness afterwords.
...You know why...
SOOOOO needs a video :D
Enjoy it Chad and please share the experience with the community, pictures, video and maybe a detailed narration on Retroforce Go!
But not too much fun...
