  1. Does Lebron really need an hour Charlie Brown Special to announce where he's playing? Just seems a little overboard to me.
  2. ^I don't think age plays that big of a factor in how the employees act. I moreso think its just the nature of the beast. Minimum wage employees are going to give you a minimum effort. Sure you may find a diamond in the rough every now and then that gives you 110% because they geniunely like what they do, but such staffing is so few and far between you are more likely than not going to come across rude, immature, and inappropriate employees. This is not a problem not exclusive to SFA. The guest service I got from SFA wasn't as bad as I expected, granted I went in went in with low expectations. Rude employees can be caught at Gadv, MM, and even Disney every now and then. It happens.
  3. ...a churro cart. He then bought one to soothe his aching head. He rested on a bench and Jack Nicholson walked by and said...
  4. I like Estelle's new single Fall In Love, but the only reason I like it is because its sounds EXACTLY like American Boy. Way to be original...
  5. Afterburn at Carowinds. About two weeks ago
  6. Thought it'd be worth a mention... http://www.nba.com/2010/news/06/19/manute.bol/index.html#?ls=iref:nbahpt1
  7. After riding both of the Intimidators I can say that it sticks I didn't get out here to ride it for opening. It's still better than it's B&M counterpart. The drop is completely neutered, but at least the turns are pretty intense. The Beemer just slams into every single one of its trim brakes and just crawls over each of its hills.
  8. Whoever wins game 5 will win this series. I don't think L.A. could beat the Celtics two straight times, even if they are at home. If the Lakers want this series, they need to come out from wire-to-wire tomorrow and dominate and close it out in L.A.
  9. ^Pfft. Public parks. I just go way out to Santa Maria County and build my own.
  10. ^Never got how Raptor gets six dock operators and Batman (SFMM) gets two.
  11. Riddler's Revenge is the lesser of all evils.
  12. I can honestly say 1 train operation of 2 of the parks big 3 is hurting capacity, but at the very least schools still in so it's not as bad as it would be in say, July. To answer a previous question, a train in rehab takes anywhere from 1-3 weeks to disassemble and reassemble a train to working order. However there's no telling if the train in service now needs some TLC once the other goes back up.
  13. ^Yea...they didn't even put up much of a fight. To me, I don't see how L.A. is as good as they are. They are capable, but inconsistent. This series with Utah shouldn't go more than 5 games, but I have a feeling it's going all 7.
  14. ^Perhaps, but then it would cause massive complaints of long waits...
  15. ^Though I can see what your point is and on some level agree with you, I think what Montuman's point was is that even if a park (for the sake of the arguement any park) doesn't follow the manufacturers service manual to a tee, that would still make the manufacturer look bad.
  16. ^The president's black now...that's definately a difference. Maybe that has something to do with it?
  17. ^They've just been a little more active in pushing it because it's losing what little appeal it has.
  18. That's the employee lot he pulled into. Just pointing it out.
  19. ^But the only reason it saw a rise was because Q3 and Q4 bought up a shiz-load of share to gain more votes. If management cna't figure out what to do with this debt, the stock price is just going to tank again.
  20. ^For that very reason, they may just snub it and paint over it...or simply never repaint it....
  21. I saw some Xcel testing this morning when I dropped off my GF for work (like 9:20ish?). They were only testing purple and it was creeping over the tophat, but it's looking good and seems like its good to go. One can only hope it'll be up soon.
  22. ^Exactly my point. Me rikey. Me rikey a rot.
  23. ^$15 does sound like a more fair offer, but I think you are dead on if Apollo has to up the ante they're going to either want to see a quicker return, a larger return or both. And if all things considered were to fall through, one can only imagine what financial situation that would put under the parks (Apollo deeming a park as "underperforming" much quicker than previously before, and an increase in capital improvements as they are no longer deemed as necessary).
