I hit up the park for the first time since I was 2 on Saturday. I wasn't sure of my way around the park too well, so I couldn't get too many good views of the area. I did get the good view from rolling out of Loch Ness Monster. For most of the morning they were drilling holes into the ground for footers. And then the rains came...

I have gotten 3 emails in the course of this past week. I wouldn't really worry about it - $79.99 is a damn good price anyway. It sure beats the 100 or more that it will be when the Early Bird stuff is over.

Thanks for the information. I think I asked the same question last year too. Stupid me. Though, I was under the impression that not all of the rides would be running in the afternoon. Thanks for clearing that up.

Is there anything to ride in the morning/afternoon? Jay "I'm a PPP newb" Willis

Add another thread to the locked bin.

I know you were.... I was just making a point. You saying genuinely like that almost made me fall off of my chair laughing

But you can't even put the stratacoasters into that category. I would be shocked if, say, Xcelerator, Storm Runner and Rita were all experiencing extended downtime at the same time. But if you through KK and TTD in the place of Storm Runner and Rita, it's not that shocking. Besides, is Kingda Ka really experiencing that great of downtime? It has either been raining here or been windy for the last couple of weeks. Maybe that is a problem. The last two times I have been to the park, the ride has been down. It is a moody sucker anyway. Me = not surprised at all.

It's sad to see a ghetto place go. I have an appreciation for ghetto places like this. Sure, they suck, but that is what makes them cool.

This is good - the kind of thing that they should be paying attention to. There are a lot of big things that are still a mess with Six Flags parks, but at least they are paying attention to the details.

"I want to get drunk and pound Barry with the hammer because he makes so many of these freakin' caption games!!!"

Eh, I'm not surprised. Almost daily eh? Didn't have an oil leak that had it down for a few weeks towards the end of the season last year?

Seriously though, is it really a surprise that they are down?

Chances are, I will be there. Rich - count me in for Dorney if I make it to PPP... that is, if I'm allowed to

This just proves that there is a day for everything.

It's just joking around

WoF, my friend, is the un-cement CF park. Rowdyland (Adventureland) Unfair! (Valleyfair!) Give it time my friend, give it time... It has started to turn into World's of Trashcans.

What can I say? Penn State sucks. It's not by choice.

I want fanboys...

^ You can name any Cedar Fair park Cement _____ World's of Cement Cement Park Cementfair! Cement Point But, it would actually be concrete

Game Gear was the best. I think I have like 20 games for it. Those were some awesome graphics. It totally kicked Game Boy ass. I can't believe that there was something with color and good graphics back then. I tell my cousins about it and they just say "So?" because they have their Game Boy Advance and PSP. It was a big deal back then.

I was a senior in high school. Our class had to go to the library for a project. One of my teachers from another grade, Mrs. Hennigan, came running into the library in a frantic state and turned on one of the TV's to show the 50 or so people in the library the scene. We were literally the first people in the school to know what was going on. It was probably a couple minutes after the second plane had hit (I'm glad I didn't see it live). The general concensus was "Oh come on guys, you tried this once before." We thought it would be stopped, the thing would be repaired and all would be normal in the world. Stupid high school kids. Then, just before the period was over, and all of the joking was really kicking into high gear, they announced that the Pentagon had just been hit. I have never seen expressions change like I did that day. It was from laughing and giggling to "Holy sh*t". We all went out into the hall saying that we were under attack and that the trade center had been bombed. Nobody believed us... I guess they figured it out in the three minutes that it took to get to class. We weren't even allowed to watch it on the TV in class. We were supposed to go on like it was a normal day. After school activities were cancelled, that was it. We weren't able to go home early. We had to stay in school and learn. I didn't have one class where we did anything but talk. The principals went around and made sure that classes were meeting and not watching the television. Really nice huh? The kids that had family members in the city got plucked from classes one by one. It was really a sad sight. Even though after school activities were cancelled, the football team still had practice late into the night. Of course, they were able to get away with it. Stupid school politics. And what did a friend and I do? It was the only thing that I knew when I was feeling down... we went and played golf. I kind of regret it to this day. I should have gone home. I just wasn't sure what else to do at the time. I have kind of let it all pass. It is wrong to say. I still think about it once in a while, but nothing like I did before. I don't let it bother me. It doesn't mean that I don't have respect for those who died, but life has gone on for me. I still respect all of the efforts and all of those who died though. There was a time that I couldn't watch replays, but now I can. They don't bother me anymore. I don't even feel anger towards it. I don't even feel sadness. It is in the past.

I have two with about 45 games if someone wants one. They actually work.

^^ I have the 32X too. Biggest waste in the world. I had one game for it and didn't look anything different than the 16bit.

I was at an event at Dorney last year and someone called Steel Force old.

What if a wheel falls off on a coaster? When if a bolt comes loose on a Tilt-a-Whirl? What if the cable breaks on a Sky Coaster? What if what if what if.....
