No. Did you eat a banana today?

I brought cookies to work today. Now they're gone. Eric

I sent Robb an e-mail awhile ago. I'll be there, but I don't know if my young 'un will join me. Eric

Your lunch was merely an appetizer for an ACEer! Nice report...now I want chicken. Eric

Y'know, I never did get that Parmesan cheese... Eric

^ If I saw an egg walking on legs, I'd head for the nearest bar. And I don't drink... Eric

^ Not everyone travels, and there's nothing wrong with duplicating a successful product. Parks have to take care of their home market, and most people who live near a park don't know that a copy of, say, Batman--The Ride exists elsewhere. Eric

Happy birthday, Barry! I don't know you, but you're...interesting...though in a cool way. One day, though, I hope to meet up with you. Eric

I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam I am. I will not eat them on a train, I will not eat them in the rain. I will not eat them with a fox, I will not eat them in a box. So there. Have you ever taken a dog for a ride in your car?

^^ Sorry to hear about your car, Nicole I've been there, too. My last car had $1200 worth of oil leaks alone. Then there was the rear differential, drive shaft, and the list went on. Eric

I used to work the Coastal Cleanup Day here in California. However, I went to clean up the beach and they made us log every scrap of paper, cigarette butt, piece of metal, etc. I ended up spending more time doing that than actually cleaning the beach! Eric

Yes. Have you ridden in a Chevy in the last month?

^^ I agree, Wes. That makes a lot of sense. My feeling is that if the previous post is really long, just quote the part you're responding to. Eric

Lift hills are soooo 20th Century. Eric

If Diana comes as an Asian, she's already halfway there! The casino party sounds like fun! I've been to a few... Eric

Fanboys! F-f-f-fanboys! They're in your face, they're all over the place! Eric "Glad he doesn't have any" L.

Goliath sure dwarfs the Georgia Scorcher. But it looks like it's going to be quite a ride. I hope to get to SFoG someday. Eric

One thing I'd like to see is for people to stop quoting the person right above them. We just read the post; we don't need to re-read it. Just use a ^ instead if you are responding to the person directly above, or ^^ for two people above, etc. (And not "/\"---that looks crappy.) If the person you're quoting is, say, more than three above you, then go ahead and use the quote. This just makes the boards that much easier to read. Eric

I rode Rock'N'Roller Coaster in July 2002 and, much to my surprise, it wasn't bad at all. And it's a Vekoma! Eric

^ Ditto. With so many possibilities, B&M (and others) should be doing them. I haven't ridden it yet, but the Sea Serpent element on Medusa at SFMW is a good example of what can be done. There's more than one way to bend metal y'know... Eric

"...is that one element on Silver Bullet sorta like the coaster changed its mind about performing a Zero-G inversion?" (Erik Johnson) That overbanked turn is a fun element, and I get airtime in it every time. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of those on inverted coasters---at least I hope so! Eric

^ Hasn't played hockey. < Has decided what to drink. V Has decided what to vandalize!

^ Gas tends to be cheaper in Orange County (KBF and the DLR) than in Ventura County where I live. Here, it's about $2.50-2.60, so in Orange County, I'd say $2.40 or so. In L.A. County (SFMM), I'd guess that gas is about the same. Hope this helps you. Eric

Don't mess with Wes! Eric
