These are both great, Jim. There's nothing worse than an out of control whirligig. You cracked me up with the second one--what a unique take--Dick sticking his foot out, losing it and the tiger scarfing it up. What a good imagination you have!
I can almost feel it whirling out of control! Dick really shouldn't have stuck his foot out should he? ;)
I feel very sad for Lilly, Jim. You ought NOT to have made her go on that ride.
Hmmm. Your second tale was rather macabre! (But you knew that already, didn't you?)

It's lots of fun in such rides. It looks menacingly dangerous but the youngsters are not bothered. They are taken in with the fun more than anything else.
Both your MF are great,Jim!

I always look forward to your unusual takes on the SY prompts, Jim, and you've done it again. Way to go.
