Out here in CA, Pizza Hut is probably my favorite out of what's available. When I lived in Cleveland there was a chain called Marco's Pizza... now THEY have good pizza. Yum!

Now THAT's what I call a concert How was it? -Amanda "I still have 19 more days left until I see Rog" V.

I've been on it! I have pictures somewhere of me being totally freaked out waiting in line.. once I got on it though, it was totally cool. I guess it's just the sense of being so high up in the air. I'll definitely ride it again if I get the chance.

Amen! After watching Airline it pretty much scared me away from flying Southwest ever again! I know it probably sounds kinda stuck up but I prefer to fly with folks on business or at least folks who have flown before and know the drill. Don't spend 20 min throwing your luggage up in the bins, dont spend a long time getting off the plane and dont ask the flight attendant silly questions. Yeah, but that's what made the show interesting. I used to sit there and laugh at the people that wanted tons of free stuff (hotels, etc.) because they missed their plane due to the fact that they got to the gate 1 minute before the plane left (Southwest tells you a zillion times over that you have to be at the gate, at the least, 10 minutes beforehand). Then they'd swear that they'd never fly them again b/c of their own stupidity. -Amanda "Airline rocked" V.

Do you get free maze Flash Passes if you have an Xtreme pass, just like the regular ones? (Just wondering).

The other day when I was riding in the front row and was stacked behind the other train, I noticed fog cannon things right before you reenter the station. At least I THOUGHT they were fog cannons.

Blood Falls was the only thing that really scared me last year (the guy that swung out on the rope, I guess near Laughing Dragon/Tatsu, kicked ass), and Globe of Death was cool. Plus the fog, which they really need to turn back on in Batman's station (I just noticed that for the first time last week). -Amanda "just a few thoughts, sorry for the interruption" V.

OK, I really did not care about this game as a) I think the Dolphins are horrible, and b) I grew up in Cleveland so naturally I'm a Steeler-hater. HOWEVER, I watched some of the game and: A) Both teams looked horrible. I mean, the blocking/tackling sucked. Really. I hate when people just slip out of tackles and run 87 yards (nice tackling, dude). b) That wasn't a freaking touchdown!!! That dude's foot landed out of bounds. BUT, if the Miami coach dude wanted to challenge, he SHOULD have thrown the flag the first time instead of flicking his wrist around! Too late, Dolphin guy! c) The Steelers got a lucky break last year. Because of that one dude whose ancestors thought of the first Super Bowl (I can't think of him offhand), the super bowl people thought that the Steelers should win due to some retarded, probably 9-11 related reason (think Rams/Patriots SB). Rrrr. That is all, at the moment. -Amanda "When Hockey starts, come talk to me then.. GO KINGS" V.

Southwest is great with stuff like that, aren't they? -Amanda "That's my dream job, I swear" V.

Just wondering... does this maze utilize part of Flashback's queue or overflow queue area? That would explain the "mechanic sightings" over there recently.( I saw Monster Alley over there last year, but didn't feel like waiting for the Asylum).

Batman SFMM (twice in the dark)

My husband and I waited 45 freaking minutes for SFMM's Brutal Planet last year... we thought it totally sucked. By the end of the maze, my husband was walking through, guessing where every scary thing was going to jump out, then exclaiming, "THAT guy has my nachos!" or "Hey, did you take my nachos?" or something to that effect right before we were supposed to be *scared*. It was funny, but the maze was pathetic. I can't believe we waited for it. :yawn: Needless to say I haven't been in another maze at the park due to this experience so I can't vouch for the rest of them.

Oh. Yeah, that would explain it. -Amanda "I'm not in Halloween mode yet, but I need to stop obsessing over Flashback" V.

^That doesn't matter. It was Six Flags when I marathoned Raging Wolf Bobs, 19 times, at night, during their Halloween thingie. The park was empty.

As for the Flashback thing.... who knows what they were doing. Taking more random parts, probably. I won't believe anything's happening until someone actually sees it testing or something. Although I still would like to see it up and running; it's the last credit in the park that I need.

Dude, that may be the most ridiculous name for a coaster I've ever heard. I mean, when Six Flags dumped Geauga Lake, I thought THOSE new names were pretty stupid, but... this takes the cake. You'd think they could have come up with a better name than that. And just because Mandalay Bay can get away with "THEhotel" doesn't mean that NYNY can do it too. Sheesh.

Haha, that was pretty cool. The dinner scene was funny

I don't know, but this same site is trying to sell Mr. Hyde's Nasty Fall from Geauga Lake: www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=564 Interesting.

Tatsu, hands down! I mean, it's the tallest, fastest flying coaster in the world, with the most awesome pretzel loop ever. And to top it off, to me, it blows X-Flight (the only other flyer I've ridden) out of the water. At least I can ride this one and not have to sit down for a half an hour afterwards

Um... I noticed one on Sierra Twist like 11 days ago... Tidal Wave... oh, and Ninja. That's all I recall offhand.

^I do like X, it's just kinda banged me around the last few times I've ridden. The last couple times we've been, due to one reason or another, we haven't gotten a chance to ride. That's the only reason I asked. If it's not, no biggie, that's what Flash Passes are for, especially on Tatsu.

I know it's only been around a week, and I hate to sound like a GP or a newbie, but anyone know if X is back up and running yet? We're heading up there again tomorrow, by the way. -amanda

What? I've had a check card for 4 years now. I use it for a lot of things, mainly concert tickets, hotel rooms and such. A few months ago, I couldn't even get a freaking Target card (just the card, not a Visa) because apparently I have no credit. So do you have to have the debit card for a long freaking time, or what? 'Cause I do really need to improve my credit. EDIT: #444. Spooky, in a way.

^That's OK, it reminded me of how much "Snapes on a Mine Train" kicked butt... -amanda "closet harry potter freak" v.

Must have been a bug. I clicked on SFMM's site just now and there's a full calendar for August.
