  1. Interesting that no one with a heart rate over 70 is posting in here. I just took mine and it was 68 but I have been up for three hours. I will have to remember to take it when I get up. I have WCS too. I had a problem getting the lowest rate on life insurance because my blood pressure was just over 130. They only care about the upper number, not the lower or heart rate. Twice I walked out of an exam for my insurance because it was too high. What I finally did to get past the WCS was I had the physical done at my home first thing in the morning. Coming to my office at the end of the day with the daily stress and coffee was a mistake before. The other thing I did was spend an hour in my hot tub right before the exam to help relax. A side benefit of the heat is that it lowers your blood pressure but your heart rate will zoom which they don't care about. They took the reading first thing and it was 127/70, I passed. They took it again at the end and by that time I knew I had passed and the rate dropped to 117/65 and my heart rate was down in the low 70's.
  2. I didn't know we had something like this so close to home. I had a blast doing zip lines in Hawaii and New Zealand, now I need to try it here.
  3. Rode Nemesis Inferno for an hour straight during ERT. Just changed seats.
  4. Birdland by the late Maynard Ferguson
  5. Looks like a capacity nightmare!
  6. Tivoli is one of those must see parks on my list.
  7. I know, I realised that after posting and hoped nobody would pick that up. And your proof that it is cheaper to build in the US is what?
  8. The Boardwalk. It is with in walking distance of Epcot and even the studios(or a short boat ride). You can pop over to the Magic Kingdom on the monorail outside Epcot. You can pretty much avoid the buses to visit 3 of the 4 parks if you want too.
  9. Not a coaster but a flat ride. We were in China and it was on a Giant Frisbee. The restaint still had about a 1/2 inch of play when it was locked. It was a little un-nerving at the top of the ark to fall against the restraint and have it move a little. I had to keep telling myself that it still had the safety seat belt thing if the restraint should pop open but I was glad when the ride was over.
  10. I almost stayted at Coronado Springs once. We ended up at The Boardwalk instead and my wife loved it. Now I can't get her to try some of the other cool places.
  11. Wow, doesn't seem like it was that long ago when MASH was on.
  12. I just had lunch and now I'm hungry again. I think I want pizza for dinner.
  13. I like seeing how all the different parks decorate for Christmas.
  14. Hopefully they follow through with their plans for 2013.
  15. I don't think the parking is really a big issue. You are probably looking at 4 or 5 Sundays at most where there would be a conflict and those would all be in September and October. This could work out good, drop the kids off at the park while the adults go to the game. Afterwards they enter the park to enjoy the Halloween events and wait for the crowd leaving the stadium to thin out.
  16. ^That would probably make it a safety hazard because it wouldn't be visable!
  17. I would put my money on a an exact copy of Forbidden Journey. It makes financial sense. The millions of people in the area who will go to USH will far out weigh the few that will travel to both parks.
  18. Love these little parks. Nothing spectacular about any of them, just a lot of fun seeing them knowing that not many people from the West have been there.
  19. Absolutely! 2013 work for you? When can we send a deposit in?
  20. ^The People Mover in Disneyland was a shock. I bet now they wished that they would have left it. Those Rocket Rods didn't last long and now the track just sits there taunting us on what used to be.
  21. Thank you for teaching me a new word, Bap! I'm hungry now and it is 3 hours until lunch.
  22. Just wondering how anyone can think a ride is over rated befor it even opens?
  23. Nice pictures Adam. It is nice to see the other Disney parks decked out for Christmas.
  24. The threads your starting add nothing to the forum. 2013 is to far out to speculate. Lets get through 2011 first.
  25. QFT Basically they are saying that they want YOUR money because they don't want to spend their own.
