Robb & Elissa's Europe Trip Schedule!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Awesome! At least now we won't be the only English speaking people at the park! Elissa "Mmm Kanonen!" Alvey -
It depends on a lot of things. If you want ads, if you don't, how much room you want, how much data transfer you'll need, etc. Anywhere from 'free' to $10000! To give you an idea, we spend about $100/month on all of our different sites and bandwith. Elissa "the internet sucks!" Alvey

Make sure to get a cage that has wire sides (so there is a good amount of airflow), but also tubes and closed in places so the hamster can play and feel safe. Also he needs a wheel! As for getting him used to you. Don't pick them up right away...let them smell your hands...feed him special food out of your hand so he associates good stuff with you. When you do pick him up, keep him close to your body so he feels safe...let him run around in certain blocked off areas. Get him a ball. You'll have so much fun. There are just some 'bad' hamsters out there, but if you treat them right they'll be great pets and want you to hold them! Elissa "now I miss RatTums...time to go home and get him!" Alvey

SFGAm's confusing layout
SharkTums replied to benzo41190's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Eric, You'd be surprised! I've walked around IOA countless times and passed people just looking feverishly at a map unable to figure out how to get somewhere! I can't tell you how many times I've yelled out "It's a circle!". Elissa "remember, most people are dumb!" Alvey -
Go on a weekday. Not a Wednesday (camp trip days for a lot of LA). It will be bad, but make sure you get there at least 40 min before the park opens...leave for lunch if it's unbearable, then go back before closing. Elissa "have fun!" Alvey

I believe their equation factors in the temp (it was about 30 degrees...11:30 at night a few January's ago) and the 120mph wind. Elissa "I still would have done it!" Alvey

Mine have usually lasted slightly over 2 years. After talking to some vets, the average has gone down recently to about 18months, which is sad. By taking good care and playing with your hamster they can last about 2.5 years. Guinea Pigs will last almost 5 years if taken care of as well as you can...I'm thinking about one of those at some point! Rats are cool, much smarter than most animals...but they're not as soft and their claws scratch me really bad! Elissa "no more pets for awhile after RatTums!" Alvey

Today was too hot...and I ate ALL day so now my stomach hurts. Now I'm tired and going to bed! Elissa "no more food!!!" Alvey

^ Hey Jeff! Anyone else coming with you??? Ok, so that means we're up to 8 for dinner...I know from my rehearsal dinner that we can actually squeeze in 9 on one of the tables. If we get a good deal more people we can take over 2 tables!!! Keep posting so I know if I need to add another table! They were already filling up when I called! Elissa "This should be fun!" Alvey

Does IOA need expansion?
SharkTums replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
When you ride Jurassic Park River Adventure you get bumped off course by one of the Hadrosaurs before getting to see Hadrosaur Cove! Elissa "Booo!" Alvey -
Afraid of coasters as a kid?
SharkTums replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I didn't like coasters till I was about 12. I wouldn't even ride the Disney Stuff! My best friend from New York came down and made me ride all of the coasters at BGT and I ended up liking them! I went back later that year when Kumba opened and loved that as well! That pretty much started it all! Elissa "Mmm Kumba" Alvey -

^I know!!! Just once I'd love for a ride where you go to see the Hadrosaurs and you actually get to SEE the Hadrosaurs!!! Elissa "stupid things always going wrong!" Alvey -

SharkTums replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Are you so sure about a ride going in the TE area? I thought they've been doing markings between Dudley and JP for a while now. Elissa 'don't put anything ON the lake!" Alvey -
I usually don't have good dreams...just nightmares! Elissa "although there were those dreams about Nsync!" Alvey

I'm still holding out hope for my Captain America Intamin Hyper in Marvel Super Hero Island! Elissa "and yes, there is room!" Alvey -

^Someone's been watching Pulp Fiction a few too many times! We can't wait to meet all of you crazy 'Danes'! Elissa "Mmm McDonalds in soo many countries!" Alvey -
If you could only do three parks in Japan...
SharkTums replied to CreativeForce's topic in Ask Alvey
The Japanese for Dummies book and CD is great! As well as the "Speedy Japanese" flip book. Those two night time parks are in Yokohama. Sea Paradise and Cosmoworld. Both are highly recommended! I remember some of my Japanese! Do you speak english? (spelled more phonetically) Eego hanashimaska? Where is the train station? Eki wa doku desu ka? Elissa "can you tell I miss Japan?" Alvey -
^I'd love some more information if you have it. At Special Olympics we've been talking about doing a 'casino night', maybe not as a fundraiser but for the athletes. I checked out the website, but I'd love a first hand account! Elissa "are you coming to our BBQ? We can chat!" Alvey

Good Question Gregg! They will be sent out 1st Class Mail so it should take less than a week from placing the order to receiving it! (Assuming we are here to get the order and not on some stupid trip) Elissa "I got a few kids sizes!" Alvey -

Once you click the link you'll see sizes...but just to help anyone out they are available in: Youth Medium Adult Small Adult Medium Adult Large Adult XL Adult 2XL Quantities are limited so if you want one get one while they're available! Some sizes have less than others. I tried to go by what people said in the "shirt poll". Elissa "yay!" Alvey -
No more pets after RatTums! Elissa "we didn't even plan on RatTums!" Alvey
