Microsoft Dangerous Creatures, 1994

Café Odyssey was a themed restaurant located inside the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota, from 1998 to 2000. It featured multiple dining sections, including a safari area, the ruins of an ancient Peruvian city, and Atlantis. Beyond large-scale props and decorations, the rooms also featured screens and projections related to their area’s theming. Non-dining areas included the “Journey’s End” gift shop and Explorer’s Club Bar, which showcased a giant globe guests could sit inside. At the time of its opening, it was the largest restaurant in Mall of America. In 2000, the restaurant was sold and closed.

You've never seen an elephant. Isn't it amazing that the sky is blue? Aging is a gift not afforded to most. Don't let the bastard grind you down. You can't mend any suffering in the world with your death. You want to see if you can grow herbs on your windowsill. Killing yourself seems like so much effort. What does tiramisu taste like? You're trying to be curious. You're angry and spiteful. What you want more than to die is to rest. This sandwich is so good you don't want to die. Not so long as there are plums to eat and somebody, anybody who gives enough of a damn to haul them to you. A stranger on the internet is holding their hand out and asking.
