Great Waves Waterpark

It’s 1:29 p.m. and the wave pool at Great Waves Waterpark has been calm for nine minutes. The mood on the surface, however, is anything but. An anticipatory energy has been transmitted through the water as sweaty sunbathers migrate from the sun deck, giddy youngsters from the various kids’ areas, and thrill seekers from one of the park’s waterslides. The anticipation ends at 1:30 p.m. when three 80-horsepower motors begin to churn the large fans that whip the pool’s 475,000 gallons of water into waves as high as four feet for 10 minutes. This increment of waves—10 minutes on, 10 minutes off—runs like clockwork at the 20-acre facility, which also features dry attractions such as miniature golf, batting cages, and grassy areas for practicing the backstroke.

In addition to offering sun-soaked thrills of simulated waves, the park's Paradise Play boasts 30-foot slides, pogo sticks, rock walls, and a non-aqueous playground area. A faux beach with sand invites revelers to unwind while snacking on a funnel cake purchased from Riptide Café, while a nearby play pool with pint-sized slides lets little riders get into the summertime mix. After a full day of sliding and swimming, guests may purchase souvenirs from the Shark Shack gift shop.

The Groupon Guide to: Computer Commands

Computers are more than just televisions that let you buy stamps. Your keyboard is a gateway to a number of convenient commands to create, edit and share your documents. A real computer-head should be able to name all of the following:

  • Save: Lets you save your work for future generations of computers to read and laugh at
  • Open: Lets you access a previously saved document to add cool new ideas you dreamed up last night
  • Undo: Erases your most recent mistake—or confessed forbidden desire—so that no one will ever know you typed it
  • Redo: Drags the truth of your secret failings back into the harsh light of the monitor
  • Copy: Lets you copy the work of a more experienced writer, usually by inserting multiple paragraph excerpts of more obscure David Foster Wallace essays
  • Properties: It’s never too early to start looking at these helpful real estate listings in your area.
  • Print: Makes a real-life ink-and-paper copy of your document for you to throw away later

What do all those fancy buttons on your computer do?
