  1. ^It's just a statistics thing... Disney is going to have more accidents because they have more people at their parks! Add to that that they're open 365, and Florida is not the best of climates, and yeah you'll have problems.
  2. At my High School in Sarasota, FL we had 99 kids in my graduating class, 1 was black. The grade below me had no black kids. Talk about segregation! The south really still is behind! Although we did have Asians and Pacific Indians!
  3. Friday will be less busy. Also during the day you should be able to get a lot of rides in before the crowds come in for the night events.
  4. HHN is usually pretty crowded on Halloween. But it is a Monday this year so that would still be better than going on the weekend. Try to do both the event at MK and the event at Universal. They are both very different, but very fun!
  5. You're not crazy! I'm really not into riding a coaster a bunch of times, but that being said, I probably rode Expedition GeForce like 20 times when we were there!
  6. THANK YOU COASTER1!!! If this was like a braking, sensor, computer issues, I don't believe that it's Intamin's fault either! Don't they have another company do all that stuff?
  7. The news corrected itself after the press conference by some Anaheim Police Guy. 2 Full trains with 24 people each = 48 people 'involved'. Of those only 15 went to the hospital.
  8. My bad...dude yeah one train was in the breaks before the station, and the other train hit it at full speed coming into the final breaks. Honestly, that's a major fault of the breaks, but I give those Intamin trains credit for staying in one piece and not killing anyone! Hope the 15 people still in the hospital are okay!
  9. Yeah, just watched it on KCAL9...two trains collided, most people on the train said they were fine, but went to the hospital as a precaution. They're making a HUGE deal out of this! It sounds more like the Powder Keg accident where one train was just advancing into the station and hit the one in the station. I agree with Eric...how did more people than can possibly be on two trains get injured?!?! I'm guessing it's just a combination of the media and sue-disney happy folks!
  10. What can I say, I'm awesome! Well, okay, not really but here's the story for those of you who don't know: Robb knew Chris Sawyer and when Chris was putting together the first game Robb helped him with photos and video. (You can find Robb in the Special Thanks portion of the credits). When it came time to do the second game, Chris was nice enough to ask if he wanted to be a 'peep'. Robb was cool enough to instead ask if I could be a peep that would go ride all the Intamin coasters!
  11. ^Yes we need to do another game night!!!! Thanks everyone for the kind words! And don't forget NO POPUPS!
  12. Hmm, I was trying to think of stuff and I really couldn't! My brother and I (when we were both living together in the house) really got along quite well! I think it also has to do with a 6.5 year age gap, I was more like a mini-mom to him! On a coaster related note, I would put him in a cardboard box when he was little and simulate a roller coaster! Elissa "I wonder if this is how the simulator idea was born!?!" Alvey
  13. ^Way too easy...not even going to bother listing one!
  14. ^Didn't I ban you!?!
  15. ^I think it's also harder/easier depending on where you are! I remember watching some of those Discovery Health Channel shows about all of the work it takes to change gender/sex. It always showed these happy people and happy doctors in San Francisco. I'd imagine on the West Coast of Florida you're not finding too many people in your same situation. The whole human body/brain/gender roles thing is too complex and will never be fully understood. Heck, I think I have a lot more 'male' personality qualities than female, but damn I love getting all dressed up and pretty sometimes! Elissa "only takes me 7 minutes to get ready in the morning!" Alvey
  16. ^^Stupid Romantic Crap!
  17. ^LOL! Eh, I'd rather find out that Nessie is real over Big Foot!
  18. Hmm, kind of disappointed after watching that video...the ride doesn't look quite as cool as I was thinking it would be. I'm also hoping that the ride isn't as rough as the 'cameraman' makes it look!
  19. ^Wait! Were you the other guy that Robb said he met up with!?!? If so, I want details!
  20. Ugh, yeah I should probably post a RatTums update... It's hard...he's on some bad cycle where one day he's fine, and the next day one of his legs doesn't work. It's really quite sad, but he just doesn't seem to be in pain, even when his leg isn't working he tries to climb around and go in his wheel. If he makes it until Robb gets back I'll have Robb check him out and decide if it's time to put him down or not. I know I could never make that decision. Thanks for caring!
  21. Awww I think this was the best Photo Random Report yet!!! Do the animals wander around a lot? Do you have to keep an eye on them? I let RatTums wander a lot but I have to watch him closely cause he likes to try and gnaw through electrical wires!
  22. Quick Update! Robb just called from Heathrow where he was in a 2 Hour Check In Line!!! Some notes: - 3 Hours of Sleep due to Non-German Tom getting in late! - Nemesis Inferno is a lot of fun, not a forceless B&M, but not a Talon or Silver Bullet either! - X:/No Way Out is still bizarre - Colossus is not aging well...lots of vibration, but no head banging - The two S&S rides were both running and really surprised him at how much fun they were! Especially the SWAT one! - Park was not too crowded, longest they waited was like 20 minutes! His flight just took off for Hong Kong! I'm so excited to see his pictures from there!
  23. Sure, I'll leave it, but in the future check first...you'll also notice in the other thread that there are A LOT more fast food places. I'll leave this open to vote, but don't count on too many responses!
  24. Yeah, sorry, but that thing looks like it could be your messed up genetic clone! I'm sure if we went do DisneyQuest and did that stretchy face thing, I could make that out of your picture!
