I can't wait to experience the Amsterdam Dungeon for myself in about three weeks!

^Eating breakfast. < DOES LIKE WAFFLES! Wow! (Waffle House kicks @$$!) \/ Waffles over unimportant decisions.

??? Um, not really a yes or no question, but no, I prefer Walmart.

Ocean Avenue Yellowcard

I watched two movies last night, and I was let down by both: Final Fantasy: Advent Children At least it was better than Spirits Within! Grandma's Boy Way too much drugs, not enough plot, genuine humor or T&A!

23.5 days until I leave for Europe and the UK trip!

I had a glass of water at lunch.

Although it's interesting to some degree, I don't care as much for Indy for the same reason I don't like NASCAR: Way too many left turns. I like the Indycar and F1 events that mix it up on road courses, though.

It sounds like those who could participate had a great time, and the early reviews are all positive. Who'da thought?

I was thinking that instead of 77 million 'made' from the sale, how much did they LOSE in future revenues?

Is it 1200 already?

That's the 'standard' Meisho shuttle loop. There are a couple other examples around Asia. If you think Japan Monkey Park (Nihon Saru Koen is the Japanese) is an odd name, they just opened a coaster called Go Go Banana Coaster this year. I am trying to get there on Memorial Day.

^ Tell me about it, Elissa. Now if they have to ride without restraints, THAT would be challenging! Hang on!

Er, since Tenth Ring Coaster in China earlier this year.

It's good to hear that they got Revolution open in time for Tatsu's debut.

As I can't watch American TV, can someone tell me if the construction is visible in the background? In Japanese shows that aired before the announcement, it seemed as if the crews weren't allowed to film the unfinished Eejanaika. I haven't seen anything yet since the announcement.

Robb or Elissa, (or any mod who knows,) Is the drop bar in the forums that allows you to select any page in a forum or thread new? Or am I blind and just didn't notice it before? Either way, thank you, it is a big help to me!

I'd like to give a shout out for PA. For a single park, pick Kennywood or Hershey. Both are fantastic experiences. If you have a little more time, there are a ton of smaller parks within an hours' drive from either one. I did just about every park in the state in about 4 days! (I missed Dutch Wonderland somehow...) It really wasn't terribly expensive, either. There's a lot of traditional stuff at the parks there, too. One more thing to mention: Knoebels'!

^ Nah, I know that Atlantis Adventure doesn't have an inversion.

My answer is dependant on the ride as well. Gotta go hands up on a flyer, though!

I've already cast my vote as far as 360 goes. I've had three opportunities to buy it, and I've passed it up all three times. (I think a lot of guys in the Navy agree, there were @48 X360's at the exchange the other day. There were still more than 40 left today.) PS3: I'm NOT happy about the price. I know I'll jump on the one with the smaller hard drive, I don't play online much, but I expect PS3 to have the ginormous library it's predecessors had. (It does already with more backwards compatability.) Wii: I still hate the name, but I will likely get one, even as little as I played my Gamecube. I know there will be stuff I must have.

Am I the only one who noticed the vertical drop in this picture? I had no idea! Now I'm REALLY upset that I haven't gotten to ride AA on the two times I went to Lotte World!

I had an OTSR pop partially open on me once. (The ride was a Top Fun Typhoon @ Magic World, Licola, Italy it's just outside Naples.) It was terrifying and painful. I got right back on, but I sat in a different seat!

I said lightning rod in my post. You said light tower in yours. I ASSumed that you didn't understand what I was talking about. Have you seen a picture that shows a light on top of the lift hill?

^ There is no airport near Fuji-Q. A lightning rod is a metal pole with a wire running down from it to the ground. In the event of a lightning strike, the electricity runs down the wire instead of the roller coaster. If the electricity entered the coaster it could concievably fry the motor or electronics. This ride looks like it will have 4! (That's overkill!) A lightning rod is normally installed at the highest point of a ride so that the lightning hits it before the rest of the ride.
