^^ Already did Dragon Wagon and Mindbender on last visit there, few years back, but thanks for the reminding of, heh heh. The Sled and the new spinning will be the two new creds for me, there.

Great! A good reason to take a drive over to Alberta for a ride-see ... hee hee hee. Oops. Forgot, I also still have a couple of creds at Calaway Park in Calgary, to pick up, too. Great! That means four credits between Edmonton and C-town. Sweet!

The goose touch is nice, guy. Just don't let it poop plastic in yer pool, eh?

Congrats, guys. She looks lovely. And a Pisces, huh? Darn. I was hoping she'd be an Aries. Like....moi, heh heh. Wow - and she'll be what? Already half a year 'in existence' when the Japan Tour rolls around, lol? And FYI - I got out the Sat.paper here and found the horoscope section: So If Your Birthday is March 3... "Actress Jessica Biel shares your birthday today. You always do your homework. You work hard to prepare yourself for whatever you do. You're focused and goal oriented. Many of you have highly developed visual skills as well. Small wonder that you're very absorbed in whatever you do. Of course, this is a recipe for success. Expect a beautiful, social year ahead that favors relationships." So there ya are! Bright Blessings to you all.

If there was ever an 'imagined' shade of Pepto Bismol (sp?)... blue? Hmmm. Certainly a JOLT OF COLOR in there, yes? Sorry I never got to ride it in it's (ahem) original park? (ohhhhhh Pleasureland Southport, where has you gone?) Hope it gets a good workout AND good care at BPB.

I think I want the whiny blonde and her small companion to be next to be last. Those two are really starting to get to me, esp. when they keep pulling everything that everybody else is doing to each other. Then react when it's done to them as though they are pure as.... well, whatever. And the freaking out at the taxi driver was definitely not easy on the ears. Sorry the pitbull bros had to be axed. One of them was hurting really bad it looked like, anyway. Think he'd had enough of it all. Man, you think that some of them would start shaping up, knowing this was their second try AND chance at.. hmm? Like learning a stick shift on any car, for instance??? Hmmm. Next week. Might be a non-elimination I reckon....

Too bad the Arabian Nights haunted swing "wasn't in operation", during our June Tour last year. At Southport? Might have been fun to try, with Uber Cheese in there I'm sure... Of course, that wasn't The Only Thing(s) down for that memorable park visit. (two - OMG - two coasters down in one friggin' park!!!! Arrrrrgh.) I'm better now. But still - HEX is a pretty good swing... to be swung in, heh heh.

That is the one "Je regret" that I knew I had with me on the TPR UK Tour back in June, last year. I had known about The Black Hole since it first 'appeared' at that far end of the Alton Towers property. And no matter how (ultimately) cheesy or just wierd one of these indoor coasters can be (thankyou BPB Space Invadersss )... you know you gotta ride them at least once hmmm? Too bad. Sorry it wasn't open "back then." Thanks for sharing what's (mostly) left inside of it, heh heh.

Why is there absolutely nuthin' listed above, in the Calendar strip, there? Just an immediate observe. (and EDIT: Just noticed, right now. Page 609. 'Threes' and "variations thereof...strike again! )

Hang in there with life, be honest with yourself, and try not to lie about it at all, unless there are 'special circumstances' involved. Finding and having a partner is just as tough for non-gay peeps as it is for gay peeps, y'know? You just never know where and when "IT" will happen, lol. In time....

Poor Clare's Dad. He only wanted to protect her and the family. And Mr.Muggles, too.

Does anybody 'get the feelin' like I am starting to feel... that Disney is putting all of it's attraction ideas out, I mean to full attraction reality? Based on recent (noticably) Pixar hits? For instance... Monsters, Inc. DCA - Mike & Sulley, To The Rescue WDW - Laugh Floor TDL - Mike & Sulley to Rescue (possibly The Best of the three?) Finding Nemo DL - Submarine Voyage WDW - Finding Nemo/Living Seas DPR - Crush Coaster (possibly The Best of these three?) Looks interestingly wierd and mysterious. In my humble op. (edit: I would include "Toy Story" but the new attraction is supposedly duped at DL and WDW, and all that's against it is new "Cars" Race Rally at DPRstudios. Not quite similar at this point, etc.)

Now how the $*%@# did I miss this one? Happy Belated, Barry. Candles and Cake.

The Departed 9/10 Honestly, I think it is one of Scorsese's best-directed films, bar none. Cast is amazingly uniform and quite stunning in this location piece. Hope he gets Oscar, tomorrow night.

Opening of Act II Scene 1 of the opera Eugene Onegin (sp?) Live From the MET - CBC Radio 2

Maybe it's best we not know at this time....

That was a very well done attraction, too. I think it was actually my first 'haunted swing' attraction and it was really I think, one of The Best Ones to have first experienced. The chained tree as part of the turn beam was amazing atmosphere, inside the 'room'. One of my best memories of AT, from the TPR UK Tour last June. (Edit: It was also the best one to start with; then, I experienced the smaller, more 'cheesy' ones in the tour? At Blackpool and Drayton Manor's. Both good though, in their own quaint ways, heh heh.

Track 10."The Great Outdoors" the Country Bear Jamboree 'Celebrating 50 Years of Disnyeland Music' 2-CD set

Yes! Yes! Yes! I am down to 180 lb. as of Monday morning! That's losing (nearly) 15 lb. since the beginning of the year. Woo hoo! I am sooo looking forward to this spring and summer, LOL!

^ Then... Finally...

First off - The Cyclone at the (now) torn down Southport park? That the pic of...? On second glance...naw - the lift hill's too (ahem) straight here, right? Then there's the WTF photo here - the 'caveman' on the scooter there... (can't repost pic here for some reason...) Man, I thought my beard was pretty thick on the UK Tour. Apparently not so, hmm? Heh heh heh. What IS that photo all about, anyway? Hey Hippo! You should be racking up some good mileage points for future credit whoring huh? GO HIP GO!

Very nice TR. And it's really nice, when you get something 'extra' as part of your day at one of the Disney parks. Thanks for sharing the "circle tour" heh heh.

No. Do you ever listen to opera on the radio?

^ It was interesting to notice that the teen players didn't go near the category until it was the second-to-last full one left? Things that make you go 'hmmm'...

This looks like a definite "must visit" for the future TPR Mainland Euro-Tour, hmmm? And the awesome little indoor park itself, heh heh.
