Kanye West is probably the most hated person right now
Chris Benvenuto replied to edh's topic in Random, Random, Random
Kanye's a freaking idiot. I can't understand half the crap he's saying because his voice is all garbled and messed up. No excuse for this, horrible behavior. Stupid git. -

Pointless post, and on top of that you double posted. Don't write stuff like this if you have nothing to contribute. -

Well, about 25 minutes, and I'll edit my post to include the article at press time! Here's to it! -
^ Despite your defense on the matter, you're seeing it from an automatic must do perspective, not all of us who have a mental disabilty need special services. My Autism is high functioning, and what you're saying is the lower functioning end of the spectrum needs it. There's a far difference between the two lines and the middle I have Autism and I've waited in 2 hour lines before, this policy is freaking horrible! I can't see how this is good idea for the theme park industry, they're going to have a flood of kids pretending to have Autism or ADHD to get to the front of the line. Example of me waiting in a long line this summer was a 90 minute wait for Fahrenheit at Hersheypark this August. I waited, and I got on without a hooch or snag. For god sake, I've compiled almost 900 posts on this forum too. This policy may not directly apply to my condition, but I still don't agree with it. This policy is bound for failure.

Hey. At this point, if we get anything besides a show or resturant I'm fine with it. This was a real creative approach to a ride annoucement, the most creative I've seen CP do. As long as it's something new, or interesting I'm all for it. I really don't care what it is now, but a ride would be preferred. -

You guys realize Nostradamus predicted all the way to 2979 or some far away year similar to that? I believe Nostradamus more then the Mayans, sure they may've been right about alot but eventually they're going to strikeout and be wrong about something. The world's not going to end, no one can actually predict when it does, but it's fun to speculate none the less. Laugh, point and scold me all you want, that's my belief and I'm sticking to it. Period. My 2 cents, as you will...

Stratosphere Tower videos
Chris Benvenuto posted a topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm looking for two videos about the first two rides on the tower High Roller and Big Shot. Their used to be old videos of both rides, back when they opened on the Strat's ride website, but they disappeared off the website in about 2003. They showed rider reactions, and several artsy shots set to thriller-type music. To date it specifically, the ride's still had their old logo's on them. The Let It Ride logo on High Roller, and the Big Shot Stratosphere logo on the Big Shot. I've been looking for these for about 3-4 years, and I've called the hotel and tower's PR division and they seem to have no clue about them even though the videos were made by them. Can anyone help me out in finding these old videos? -

You think this thread is bad, look at the comments in their Facebook fan page. *No offense to anyone, I know it's the GP, but it's still funny!* -
In total, it takes about 3-4 hours to get everything at MiA on a lightly crowded day at the park. 5-6 Hours if it's any more crowded, and about 2 hours with next to nothing in terms of crowds. Be warned on Zach's Zoomer,Wolverine Wildcat and Corkscrew they run only one train. Thunderhawk and Shivering are the only two coasters there that run two trains, the rest is Big Dipper (kiddie coaster, one train) and the Mad Mouse with several vehicles. Off the topic of advice, they really need to reformat Wildcat into a two train setup. Because seriously that takes awhile and is painful to wait in line for, and the same thing for Corkscrew, but Corkscrew is a different story and the train itself is a menace for trying to get a tall person (like me) to get wedged in there. In all regards, you should be able to conquer everything once by 4pm, and if you want rerides, do after that's said and done. Hope this helps!

A little over 230, only so many songs you can fit on a 3rd Gen shuffle. 1GB is really all I need, I don't listen to alot of music and I have about 500-550 songs in my iTunes.

GO IN THE TPR CHAT NOW!!!

Yeah, I'd join but the chat's broken on my end....sorry....*gets eaten* -
Big Mike, you are one, VERY LUCKY MAN! Had that happened to me, but instead of the Yankees it would be the Tigers I'd pretty much cry my heart out in sheer joy! The Yankees organization is one of the best, sure a good bit of NY cheers for them along with their national fans. But, despite my dislike for them, they are one of the best donating organizations in the Major Leagues. Be that as it may, they're not the only very charitable organization in the MLB, the Tigers are also very hospitable as well! But, all things and bragging aside, CONGRATULATIONS on the Luxuries! I am so jealous of you! hope you had, or will have fun at the game! Can't wait to the see photos, BIG man!

Even after Windjammer was built the public keeps thinking since they can't forget that mistake, they keep hoping it isn't a TOGO ride. I don't even think TOGO is making coasters anymore after all the lawsuits they've recieved in the past for poor quality and bad design. -

^ #5 kinda eliminates the point of the thread? 1. Skydive 2. Bungee Jump (Grand Canyon) 3. Anger a very important politician 4. Give my friends an experience that they'll remember (bad/good) 5. Post to this thread (20% done!)
