Dip stick Friday

dip stick in sti broke. rod just snapped off right before the handle while checking oil level. luckily nothing fell into the engine.
1) I never knew they could snap so easily, since I've seen them bend many times and never break
2) they are surprisingly cheap/reasonable to replace from Subaru. only $12 brand new from Inna

happy Friday everyone

On another note: It is my son's 5th birthday today. What would be the BEST place to take him? I'm kinda hoping for some go-karts or bumper cars or something? is Scandia decent these days?
