  1. This looks like it has the potential to be a capacity nightmare. I wonder why the park didn't decide to have two cars per train rather than just one. I guess this ride will be a get there early and run to it type of ride. That airtime hill looks orgasmic. I know Abismo's was.
  2. I saw Heart last Friday at the Bank of America Pavillion in Boston (Formerlly the Flee Boston Pavillion/ Harborlights) I was not a huge fan before the show (the BF is) but they were by far the most talented band/person i have ever seen live. I was left awestruck by how much fun they had, and the power of Ann Wilson's voice. Probably the best show i've ever seen.
  3. Zero Those be tourists. And true islanders aren't pretentious, only the skukes and tourists are. You think two rings is impressive? As a kid if we didn't get three or four rings on each go round it was a bad ride.
  4. The gays (aka panthers) also make excellent roomates for the single ladies. Sometimes rooming with them works out better.
  5. Kate Bush - Running up that hill (my music tastes are still in the early 80's)
  6. If they are blaming the foundation in the lake for the roughness on the part of the ride, what is the reason for the rest? This whole thing seems odd. How would they not have noticed foundation problems during the construction and then suddenly find them? Perhaps the train was vibrating so much than anticipated that it caused problems. I hope that they install kicker wheels between the brakes and the station because having to push empty trains into the station is just silly.
  7. Well SFNE and SFDL both have SLC's and Boomerangs and are within the 6 hours that they were complaining about. And yes, i know DL is no longer a 6 flags parks. Great Escape and SFNE both have Boomerangs, again both within 6 hours.
  8. I want to second the kiddies love for Thomas and friends. The neighbors kids are absolutely crazy for him. Lets hope all the kids haven't licked Thomas though, he has been found to contain lead.
  9. ^As if Flashback and Pandemonium weren't clones I'm interested in where this is going to go.
  10. I have to agree with the one at Parque Warner Madrid. We spun so much it felt more like a teacup. Great great fun. Bluto's Bilgerat Barges is awesome as well. I am glad to hear the rest of Europe's water rides kick as much arse as those in Spain.
  11. Heart - I didn't want to need you (seeing them Friday Night)
  12. $15 on a set of zombie figures
  13. So just because this isn't on par with Disney rides, a ride that the whole family can enjoy together is somehow not a family ride? Would different theming be enough? How about a different name? Both of those things seem to make a ride different for most of the GP. But the thing to think about, is that kids LOVE this ride. I have heard it again and again, with people at work, relatives, and overhearing people in the park. If they love it so much it just might make people more likely to go to another park that also has it. Boardwalk bullet may seem like a great ride to us, but i doubt many entire families will ride it together, which is what i feel the SF management are trying to do with this ride.
  14. My kitties Callie being her fatself on the couch Hecate in the linen closet
  15. During Fright Fest SFNE can get very very crowded, even more so when the weather is great, which is what the forecast is right now for this weekend. I went once during fright fest and will never do it again without a q-bot. Of course your mileage may vary.
  16. I can't believe all the whining about a NEW COASTER. The thing might not be a record breaker, but it is a fun little ride. I love these things, even if they do make me sick. It's a relatively inexpensive ride that the whole family can enjoy. Makes sense from a buisness standpoint as far as I can see. and did i mention it's a NEW COASTER?
  17. The trains didn't need to be built in teh same amount of time. If it was originally designed for a different type of train they were probably already well aware that that segment of track would most likely be too intense. But if the barrel roll track had already been fabricated they could put it in and see what the actual forces were, but still fabricate the alternative track just in case. This seems like the most likely scenario. The timing of the replacement track always seemed way to quick. Complicated steel pieces cannot be fabricated, painted, shipped, and installed THAT quickly.
  18. Good Luck Terry. That place seemed nightmarish.
  19. ^ (and i still blame Kyle's influence on the "dress shoes" ^^Fan girls are great. CanabieTaco and I had some tweens, but they were more interested in our friend that was ACTUALLY HITTING ON THEM (eww). I can't wait to see more pics.
  20. 4. Flip FLops Sneakers (running) Sneakers (Indoor Soccer Shoes) "Dress" Shoes More like a low rise boot. And i am glad i had all of them so i could switch them around so my feet wouldnt be too sore.
  21. Nice read as i was at the fair the Saturday before you. I had a great time at my first ever State fair. I came mere inches from that support column in the unload area of the Crazy Mouse.
  22. RE: THe poll I was completely kidding with the Patrick Star suggestion, but if it floats your boat, go with it.
  23. Jimmy Buffet's Labor Day Weekend Show.
  24. Did you actually get to whack at things/people?
