I have a stack of Compact Flash cards. Eric

No, because no one will likely use it. Should there be an In-N-Out Burger on every corner?

^ Pathetisad. < Automo. V Coconated!

^^ What's the difference? Just kidding... Eric

I just took another look at the fourth picture down on Page 1. She looks just like Robb in that one! I'm kinda bummed that I won't be able to see Kristen on Sunday. But I understand wanting to avoid exposing her to so many people---and whatever they may bring from SFMM! Eric "isn't going to SFMM on Sunday because I just went last Sunday" L.

I e-mailed Dan today. Really. Eric

^ May you live in a very small apartment someday... Eric

I have a copy and probably paid about $16.95 or so for it waaaaayyyy back in the late '80s just after I joined ACE. Nice little book, but I can't see how it could possibly sell for $200. Eric

^ If any of the wood is still on property, it isn't too late... Eric

^^^ I, too, am a defender of SFMM, but as far as I'm concerned, they've just done a bit of housecleaning... Eric

"Now whos going to explain to her that her name means Kidtums?" (Ryan King) Maybe you'll "pound it" into her! Eric

^ Of course that doesn't mean that someone didn't record it. Just not a guest... Eric

^^ All very true, though I do question a restaurant serving Chinese food in a Baja themed area, as well as a pizza place in an Asian themed one. I'm still hoping that one day, what was Laughing Dragon will be home to a nice teppan grill style (think "Benihana") restaurant or that Panda Express would move in up there. Just my 'pinion...

Lunch today was Elissa-friendly food: McDonald's. And it was the new Third Pound Bacon and Cheese burger. (No fries---I have to watch the carbs! ) Eric

Yes. I just punched a hole in my wall. Have you tried the new Pepsi Jazz flavor, Caramel Cream? (Good stuff!)

Had an easy time getting down to the Valley today (just an hour---if you know L.A. traffic, you know what I mean!). My first day on the job was actually kinda fun. I got yet another tour of the shop, got to go into the prototype room and play a bit, and I'll probably be working on my first tech manual tomorrow. And the drive home wasn't bad either. Eric

^ Not a slacker. < Wore slacks today. V Wore out his welcome!

^ Actually, Psyclone was the third coaster to occupy that spot. First was the Sarajevo Bobsleds from 1984 to 1985 when it was moved to Six Flags Over Texas. Then they had the Shock Wave standup coaster from 1986 till 1988 when it was moved to Six Flags Great Adventure. Then, in 1991, we got Psyclone. I do want to echo what a few have said. While most of us are celebrating Psyclone's demise, it really was a great ride in its first couple of years. However, the Northridge earthquake (1994) and too-heavy trains have battered the track over the years, making it the almost un-rideable coaster it became. About this piece of land. I've heard a few people say that the ground there is not really that stable, but, then, that's just hearsay until someone can actually prove it. Eric

Diana and I went to SFMM today and ran into Jon (DegoRed), Erik and Leanne Johnson, and Soren and Allesandra at the Sky Tower. I start my new job tomorrow! Eric

Psyclone would have ended up being a major money pit for Six Flags had they kept it. Bring on the new family area, get the park cleaned up, rides painted, some new flat rides, THEN get a new coaster. Diana and I went out there today and saw the newly cleared land from atop the Sky Tower. What a beautiful sight! Eric

A bit off-topic...did anyone else notice the coincidence with her name? KidTums Kristen Taylor Was that...planned? Seriously, once again, congratulations. This is one ride that beats 'em all! I look forward to seeing her next weekend. Eric

^ I Love Lucy is one of our favorite shows. Even 16-year-old Diana likes it. Most of her friends haven't even heard of it, believe it or not! Eric

Nice report. I never knew that you could walk under the banked curve of Speed. It's been almost a year since I went to Las Vegas. It's time to go again. Eric

WOW!!! This came earlier than I thought it would! For whatever reason, I thought it was supposed to be more toward the end of the month. Whatever, congratulations on the new arrival. Hope all is going well! Nice choice of name, too. See you guys next Sunday! Eric

No. Did you drink a soda today?
