^ouch! At least we don't live in Denmark...then Danish kids were telling us about the fees they have to pay! And there are more! Poor Denmark! Elissa "$20,000 fees on buying a new car!" Alvey

Photo TR: DelGrosso's, Idlewild, and Williams Grove
SharkTums replied to DerekRx's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I really want to do those darn adult hand cars!!!! Nice TR as usual! Elissa "can't wait for the Kennywood report!" Alvey -
Videotape the Flying George Foreman Grill Ride of Hot Zamperla Death Ride...aka "Flying Coaster". The Half Pipe might also be kind of interesting if you get a good spinny ride on it. I've heard it's not the best place...but credits are credits dammit! Will you have time to hit Lakeside one night? That at least is a bit nicer from what I've heard. Elissa "Do the Celestial Seasonings Factory tour if you have time, it's awesome!" Alvey

^It's actually a fairly common question...but yes, he is smart...here's some more info on the keyboard thing: http://home.earthlink.net/~dcrehr/whyqwert.html I've always wanted to try one of those Dvorak Keyboards! Why am I still at work? Elissa "qwerty is such a cool word!" Alvey

The Official "TPR In Europe" Ongoing TR Thread.
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Actually, I was shaking from the Falken and Silver Star walk ups they were really scary. Almost nothing to hold on to, and in some cases just a single 2 x 4 to walk on! Believe it or not I was calm and collected for my beloved Expedition Ge Force walk up! Elissa "Mmmm, that Ge Force walk up made me hot!!" Alvey -
Ever get into a fight at a theme park?
SharkTums replied to freestylenut's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've never gotten into any 'fights'...probably since I'm a girl! I've yelled/made comments at my fair share of: Line Jumpers, Stupid People, people making a crying scared to death kid ride some awful ride, parents who put their kids on a leash, etc. I had a shoe thrown at me when I worked in Guest Relations! (that man was quickly escorted out by security) Oh, and I had some kids thrown out of SFMM for being mean to a squirrel...that was pretty awesome! They were stupid to be mean to a rodent in front of me!!!! Elissa "if I was a dude, I probably would have gotten in some fights!" Alvey -
^lol, yeah I always thought that I'd do good on Survivor eating nothing but plain rice for a month! On the other hand when they did have eating challenges and there were two spaces that were "good" spaces (like fruit or a candy bar) I realized I couldn't have even eaten those! Elissa "damn eating habits!" Alvey
-
^Yeah and in some states you'd get 2 years for $50...not to mention none of this 2 plates crap, or smog testing! Elissa "you're preaching to the choir!" Alvey

I think they focused too much on the 'peeps' and scenary then at the last minute realized they had to do the rides. The rides/coasters/waterslides(in soaked) just don't look *quite* right. As if everything was modeled after bad photos and not video or in person. Did anyone here ever play Sim Town? It was cartoony, but the graphics were large, detailed, and laying things down was easy. Nevermind, I don't know where I'm going with this! I want RCT 1 & 2 back...but if I can't have that I'd at least like a change from 3. Elissa "it also needs the boat jumping and other self operated rides added in!" Alvey

What would you wait for 6 hours for?

^ROTF!!! LOL!!!! Yeah, but what would happen if I got screwed into some eating challenge! I also did pretty well on that hellish ropes course at Toverland so I'm feeling pretty invincable right now! I want to go do the Fear Factor show in Florida! I was going to do the one here in LA until I found out you have to eat nasty stuff at this one. Elissa "I am almost tempted to send in a tape..." Alvey

^That one I'll give you!!!! Elissa "but it will have to wait till I get home!" Alvey

Going to SFMM on July 17th, and.....
SharkTums replied to crispy's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't know what's going on with Robb and my work...if we don't have to work at all we'll probably be at Raging Waters, but if we do have to work, we'll at least pop into SFMM and say hi! Most likely we'll see you Sunday! Elissa "silly day jobs getting in the way!" Alvey -
This is actually a plus to being an enthusiast and having some idea of the nature of the breakdown! I love when they use the speech that they'll be temporarily closed and half the people get out of line all pissed off when I can clearly see that they are "temp closed" because they're adding another train! So again, depending on how long the breakdown will be, and what ride it is determines if I wait or not. Elissa "waited in the pouring rain for a damn roller skater to open since I needed the credit!" Alvey

Well at least this settles the debate over which Tower is better! Seriously though, this sucks. Makes you wonder if maybe someday in the future problems like these could be avoided by genetic testing to see if you're predisposed to clots, heart defects, etc. Of course, that's a whole new debate! Elissa "hoping for a full recovery" Alvey

Pick Your Top 3 "Fanatic" Avatars!

Ok now, let's all STOP voting for Robb's!!!!! Elissa "not amused!" Alvey -
One of our neighbors...it has a huge dent in it. How much longer do you think RatTums will live?

^HAHA! Someone better call 911 in Ft. Myers over to Barry's house! Now go to bed, or pass out, or whatever!

^^Kristi, she's not so little anymore! Elissa "better start keeping Robb away!" Alvey

^No.

European Readers - HELP!

^Why don't you just say: "look guys, I'm a pathetic Haunt enthusiast and that song that they play at Walibi and Heide is also played at Haunt. I would like to download it so I can listen to it all the time and get off." Elissa "sorry jewy!" Alvey
