The Junkyard Sports Website - now in your virtual neighborhood
It is with something approximating a paroxysm of pleasure that I herewith announce the Grand Opening of the Junkyard Sports Website.
The plans for this enterprise are vast and unparalleled. Well, maybe paralleled, but definitely unhypotenused. Note, for example, the Junkyard SportsŪ Hall of Fame. Here you can read about such Junkyardly marvels as Frying Pan Baseball (I've already had at least one group ask me to teach them how to play it), Stick Ball (of course), and the little known sport of Eraser Bouncing.
In a similarly rich vein, you can not only read about the paradigm-busting, joy-provoking Junkyard SportsŪ Events but see a couple of exemplary Junkyard Sports, as created by participants in a DeepFUN Seminar at the Esalen Institute, actually being played.
O, I could go on, and on. I think I'll do the former.
The drawing, by the way, is by my friend Bob Gregson, who will be doing all the drawings for Junkyard Sports, the Book, and is the author of some of my favorite play books, including The Outrageous Outdoor Game Book.
The wonderful, whimsical website design? By the always amazing Julie Wolpers of Webcurrent Communications, who also designed my Technography and my Coworking and my DeepFUN site.
