Photo TR - Magic Kingdom - Splash Mountain Reopens!
the ghost replied to A.J.'s topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^^ While I never went on the original(had been to WDW but had never been to magic kingdom at the time)I have heard many call it the scariest thing ever put into a theme park, including any haunt event. I have had friends who have ridden it, however, and I know one of them calls it his favorite ride anywhere , despite that it scared him to tears when he rode. ^^^ Dinosaur kinda fills in that position now. As I said, I have never ridden Alien Encounter, but dinosaur is probably the scariest dark ride I have ever been on. Hell, I rode it 2 summers ago, and even though it didnt scare me per say, a lot of it was CRAZY LOUD, and some of the dinos made me jump. Also I did ride it as count down to extinction when I was in second or third grade, and I remember it being terrifying. People always take their kids on rides even if they dont want to ride, cause a lot of people just suck. Its like when you see people with kids or toddlers at a haunt event(like the lady with a 3 and a 5 year old in from of us for corpses at hhn ) and you just kind of ask yourself "WHY!." I mean I love theme parks as much as or more than the next guy, but you often see the stupidest people there! -
What live concert do you look forward to this year?

^ See, that sounds kind of awesome, lol. There are some pits I have avoided at all costs though. I am a huge slipknot fan, and I went to mayhem fest, but there music is so pit friendly people went pretty much insane. It almost gets to the point that pita are not fun anymore when people are aiming to hurt. However, pits at ska and punks shows are soooo much fun, cause you're more there to dance and stuff than actually mosh. -
^ Thats a blessing in disguise. She would have said no without being able to give you any reason if she hadn't been ready to come out yet. Now you dont feel rejected cause she has a legit reason to not go out with you.

Coupon, I can do CS, just prefer no CS. Thats why I like you and TLM on my team, you guys are awesome at supports and buildings. I can detail rather well, do foliage pretty decently, and I am great at layouts. Just picked people whose past work I've liked. Also emberfoot is a beast at terraform judging from that terrain based arrow suspended at the preview thread. The Everyone likes the Underdog Ghost -
Wow, almost exactly 3 months later til an update,lol. Here's what happened. We recently got a new computer, and I lost everything from the hard drive, which made me assume I lost Lynx. However, I forgot I had pmed it to Dmax to work on a little at the very beginning. To make a long story short, yesterday I was looking for an old NL file and I stumbled upon lynx. Keep in mind that I lost all the original station theming, so I have started that over, and it is much much better than it was before, in fact, one of my best NCSO building EVER. Also, I should mention, although it should be clear, the station is not done yet, but the roofing/details are done, just need to finish the structure. Once again, sorry for the crazy delay. All foliage/landscaping is being reworked as are tunnels and things. Thanks for the old comments everyone, the might Lynx will run through the trees once more! Once again, keep in mind foliage is NO WHERE NEAR DONE! Sorry for the delay, and thanks to everyone who has previously commented! SCR5.BMP New station! SCR8.BMP Most of the awesome terrain based layout, for those who don't remember it. SCR6.BMP I'm not gonna lie. This is still probably my favorite element I've made on any coaster. This was reworked tons of times to get the pacing just right! SCR9.BMP Smile! Double down through the trees and an on ride photo!

All right, that works. However, I cant be in all morning, but I can try to pop in. Will the draft really take 4 hours? Cause I have an online math test due by noon, so yeah... but I am good from...say... 10 to 11. -
Sorry for the double post, but I thought this was fun! What do you think of this list? www.rottentomatoes.com/guides/best_disney_animated_movies/1/

IN MY IDEAL WORLD. ^^^ I agree with you in most ways, despite social network not being my favorite film. I actually feel I liked Kings Speech and True Grit a little better, but I loved all three, and I agree it probably will win. I would LOVE the Cohen brothers to finally get their long deserved director oscar as I dont think we've ever seen better dark comedy film makers. I'd also LOVE Aronofsky to get a directorial Oscar, but I agree that Social Network is better as a whole, but I tend to not like bio pics as much. cause it's not as creative or as original, although as I said before I loved Social network for what it was, and Aronofsky is relatively young, so he has plenty of time to win. agree with you that Portman had damn well better That being said I think Black Swan is going to take best cinematography, as I have never seen camera movements quite like that. Lastly I would love True Grit to win best adapted, because they made an awesome "action movie", or something near an action movie, and it was great. Also, I think that Hailee Steinfeld should win best supporting actor. Granted, I have not seen the fighter yet, but for someone her age to act that well...she essentially made the movie. In fact, it is my opinion that she had the best actress introduction I have seen in years, especially as this is her debut. I have heard the fighter was great though, so maybe I am wrong, but Steinfeld nailed the character in every way imaginable.

Yeah...no chat for me tonight. I'll be at Disneyland, but I can do tomorrow. -
My parents said my family was too old to do a Disney cruise, blasphemy. She knows I am a huge disney fanboy, but were going to Hawaii instead, so I guess thats not a bad alternative. This ship has inspired me to get married at some point just so I can book a honeymoon on this ship! Wow! Awesomeness!

This is the happiest rant EVER. Good news, I just downloaded the world war z audiobook as I love zombie novels, and I plan on listening til I fall asleep. Bad news. A. Its one continuous play and its 6 hours long, so I need to remember where I am for tomorrow as I dont want to start over, lol. Another bad part is that it is abridged, but I have school reading, and Im assuming at six hours I'm not losing too much, and its much more relaxing to chill and listen with all the reading I've done recently for school. I can also deflect all that negativity with the fact I'm doing disney tomorrow night! Also Ingrown hairs are the devil! Also, a final rant/random phobia/thing. Also, this is not intended to offend R&E in any way since they did this. I REALLY dont like it when people take VERY young(like newborn) children to amusement parks. Now... heres my logic/story behind this. When children are REALLY young they have horrible immune systems. When my cousin was born she was taken to a restaurant at a few weeks old and got a cold, which developed into a fever, which resulted into her being hospitalized for a month. Everything turned out fine, but she almost died from a fever. This is seriously the weirdest "phobia" I have, but people who do this drive me crazy. Of course if the kids is one or two, fine,but a few weeks is just dangerous IMO. At Disney when I worked there, there was a lady with a VERY young child, I was making conversation and asked how old the kid was, 3 WEEKS OLD, a terrible age to take an infant into a group full of people. Ever since that happened to my cousin it just drives me insane, maybe I'm just paranoid...maybe I'm just empathetic, but yeah... thats probably the weirdest rant in this thread,lol.

^ Isnt that the point? Also I agree, any day in which Larry the Cable guy succeeds is a bad day, and Mater sucks. Do people not realize hes not even a real damn comedian? Hes a stereotype, nothing more and nothing less. His act makes me wish we had never left england and gained independence, cause he makes us all look REALLY damn stupid, and even worse he succeeds. Awwwwwww. Guess what, Patton Oswalt is an awesome comic and was awesome as Remy cause hes a real comic and a REAL actor, mater blows. And I kinda wish cars could have gone a little little low brow, cause I think Mater would have been awesome being something like the General Lee,with a confederate flag. That would have been brilliant, but no, hes a stupid talking truck.

Awwww... clever acronym there coupon, lol. Team Why The Hell am I a Captain unite... or at least we will soon. Team, we will kick ass, cause I'm a good listener, and my layouts are good. Woot(seriously though, Im no match for DJB, so I need a good team, and I read these boards frequently, so I'm gonna go for the best.) Also, last but not least, it seems VERY fair to me if we draft in order from least ranking to best ranking, cause I've got some ideas of who I think I will work well with, and seeing as I've got the lowest rank that would be cool. -
^^ If you like what you see just live with it. There are some people who plastic surgery is good for, for example, I have known people with birth defects who have gotten it, and it helped them. Trust me on this, no one NEEDS plastic surgery. It is a convenience that frankly pisses me off like nothing else. Are people really so dissatisfied with who they are or how they look that they need to modify there entire appearance. I am not a religious person by any means, and even I feel like we look how we look for a reason, no reason to change how we look. I seriously have no respect for those who surgically change every imperfection that they have, because, honestly, perfection is a creepy ass thing. Perfection is not at all natural, meaning it does not occur in any aspect of humanity or nature, and is there fore unachievable, so be happy. Trust me, you could have been handed a lot worse hand then what you've got, but you don't so be happy with what you've got and don't stress about what you want or don't want. If we just lived by these ideals I wouldn't be so agitated with humanity in general.

^ Streetlight should be around you at some point. There ] from Jersey. Also, I think the lead singer of streetlight may be there doing just acoustic renditions of the songs, which is AWESOME if your a fan, but very different from the punk ska awesomeness of a Streetlight show. 17 Days til less than jake 23 Days til Streetlight Manifesto And 1.5 months til West Coast Bash! All is good in the world! -
Giving blood just sucks. I'm kinda in the same boat as Elissa, except I get flu and tetanus shots, but I hate it. I also HATE pricking my finger, which is required for a blood test. In fact, I am so scared of needles that my monitored heart rate shot up when they pricked my finger, and it was almost too high to give blood, and I've been tested for my heart rate and its fine. Also as others have said, blood people arent that nice. Frankly I'm still using my blood, lol, and I'll give some some day, but my organs are easy peasy, just take my body, cut out what you need to, and then bury me or burn me, I wont be around to feel what you do. Down with capitalism... lol. Of course, I'm young and idealistic.

All right, super bump time but I've started to drink coffee a lot more now. I used to have it occasionally, but it had to be sweet, cause as a kid I tried black coffee once and it essentially scarred me for a while, because I though coffee to be very bitter. However, over the last few months I have weaned down the amount of sugar and creamer until where I am now, which is just coffee and a little bit of milk. I also don't like crazy hot drinks, so I enjoy warm coffee or iced coffee, but I never drink it too hot unless I'm somewhere cold. Lets discuss my new found love, your love, everything about coffee. The Half the college experience is what I'm doing right now, a cup of coffee and a study session Ghost
