"Adultitis is a silent epidemic that has been ignored for far too long. It’s a disease that slowly erodes our inborn childlike spirit, wreaking havoc on our world, our nation, and our families. It kills laughter, dreams, curiosity, faith, happiness, and hope. It stresses us out. It causes us to take ourselves too seriously. And in some extreme cases, it can cause smile amnesia. (Pretty serious stuff.)"
- Kim & Jason

Kim and Jason, self-proclaimed sherpas on the path to escape from Aldultitis, have authored a highly entertaining "experiential blog" entitled The Escape Plan. The two have faced off in a 40 day competition to out-do each other in their attempts to rekindle their childlike natures. You're invited to join them, of course.

While many of the entries are downright silly (and there's nothing wrong with being silly you big poop), there are some real gems in their daily challenges and the creative ways they try to meet them. I find their endeavor really embraces the essence of Child's Play, complete with innovative strategies to get their message out and engage their audience. I am inspired by their efforts. Go Kim and Jason!
