We decided tonight, to try the non-meat burger patties being sold, now. The setup - waiting for the oven to heat up. Buns in the oven . The fakes. Frozen fries. Now slightly thawed. Yum. (TO BE CONTINUED...)

^ How cool to hear your cinemas doing that, seating wise. Hope it works out. Too bad main theatre productions (U.S./Canada included) and movie complexes can't figure out similar configurations, in their respective theatres. And then there's the sizes of casts, onstage.... But the less sized groups of people, the better for now, I agree. -

Extinct theme park ride types
Nrthwnd replied to Timh121's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I know this isn't totally "extinct" but... What I would really enjoy riding, is an updated version of the original MAD MOUSE. Tracked the way it originally was, using the same circuit, when it was all metal etc. And use the same design for those cars, too! Front wheels (at least) 1/3-1/2 way back. The newer more plastic-y versions (i.e. The Fly in Canada's Wonderland; Coast Rider in Knot's) are total 'ugh' to me. The original versions (even the then, updated Monster Mouse) were more thrilling and scary (and NOISY!) than the current crop. You'd think after all the variations and themes of the larger steel coasters they've done, they could at least, take a better look and design of the original Mouse. And make it better than what they've come up with, in the past years. I would love to have an original one of these, back in Playland(PNE). Overhead shot. Photo c/o PNE. I loved this coaster! -

^ Very cool! You should post this entire post, with the photo of what you've done, in That C Thread, heh. People need to get back into their "craft zone," lol. -

I still have no F-ing idea what the "Navy Seals Copypasta" is. -
^ Actually, I thought he said the trip was "March-April" for 10-12 days. One month into the other, that meant to me. Meaning, it probably/possibly didn't happen, due to current obvious reasons.

I also wanted to ask... how do people pass each other, staying 6 feet apart, and going up AND down the same staircase? Are there Monitors at each level? Probably will work with each row on the bannisters/hand rails/door handles. Hopefully the stairs are that wide. But...a whole lotta cleaning gonna happen in breaks.

^ Noted, thanks! Having never ridden it, but all the others (ugh), thought I'd ask. (I was going to add Colossus in Heide Park. But that was a "rain thing" that visit.) -
Game: When was the last time you...

Yesterday. Our local grocery store on The Drive. Easy in and out. Nothing frantic going on, inside the place. And not out of much. When was the last time you sneezed? -

^ So for some Americans, this is going to become another "invasion of privacy" crap, I hope not? I think it's a fine idea, and have gone through the airport "tube" thing. No big deal. But for others....
