It sounds as though Snyder is finally going to get the "little" things done and forgo the giant coasters and such till things are running smoothly. It's sort of like your own personal finances---you don't go out and buy a 60-inch plasma TV when you owe a lot of $$$ on credit cards. If you can't afford it, you don't get it. You save up. When you have extra is when you buy "extras." In other words, what Six Flags should have been doing all along. Eric

I'll bet B&M could create trains for this ride. I believe the track gauge is very close if not identical to B&M's rides. Eric

^ You've been reaaalllly lucky! Eric

No, I have too many other things to do. Did you weigh yourself today?

Actually, I do it after each load, so I guess that's technically a "yes." Have you ever won anything in your state's lottery? Even $2 or $5? Eric

Anyone up for a banana split? Eric

Funny, I could have seen it going to Elitch Gardens or one of the smaller parks. But whatever. It is funny that its twin is not far away at La Ronde. Eric

^ Desperado is a nice, long ride, but it's rougher than hell. Imagine your typical Arrow mine train---going 80 mph! For me, I've always wanted to get to Cedar Point and ride everything they have. One day I just might get there. Eric

"The restraints are nice in that there's no headbanging, but my legs get beat to crap smacking against the trains!" (SharkTums) Exactly why I wish they'd have had some way to restrain your legs. For that reason, I usually avoid X. A few rides of mine have been particularly painful. But I give kudos to the OTSR part of the restraint system. Being vertically adjustable is the key to the comfort of it. I make it as snug as I can so I don't go bouncing around during the ride. Too bad most other ride manufacturers haven't done it, though TOGO and Schwarzkopf have had variations on that. Eric

^ Likes coffee. < Doesn't like coffee. V Likes scrubbing bathtubs!

No. The last time I swam in the ocean was back in the '80s sometime. If it was raining nuts and bolts, would you go outside?

I called my mom last night. Eric

I'll give up the porn. It's really not that entertaining, and the real thing is so much better! Would you rather have a nice conversation with a good friend or spend the afternoon eating whatever you wanted?

Less filling, tastes great. Eric

^ To be honest, I've been writing my own for over 30 years. I'm glad to see that others do also. Some people think I should publish them, but I think I'd rather get a copyright and put them on my own website---when I get one! Eric

Except for the mushrooms, that looks good. (Sorry---me no likey mushrooms!) I do like to cook, though. Anyone who's had my spaghetti and chicken pesto pizza really likes it. Eric

^ Isn't Robb and likes a lot of space between lines. < Isn't Robb and likes a lot of space between me and the next guy. V Isn't Robb and likes a lot of space between his ears!

Yes, but I was forgiven. Have you ridden in a limo for any reason?

Believe it or not, at the ripe old age of 46 I have yet to break one. Eric

^ You should be able to get almost any comic for free by going to certain websites. My paper dropped Funky Winkerbean, so I go here and look at it for free every day. Do a Google search. That's how I found this one. One of my favorites is Zits. And, of course, Calvin and Hobbes. Eric

No, I don't have a large enough crack. Have you ever gotten a speeding ticket?

Yes, and it's very hard to type while doing that... Can you walk and chew gum at the same time?

The weather has never bothered me, which is strange because I have asthma. But the girls (wife and daughter) are popping Sudafeds and other anti-allergy stuff like candy. At one time, I had a continuous string of colds, bronchitis, etc. from November to February. No more, and I'm just fine anymore. I don't know why. But I'll take it. Eric

LOL at "Zorro's Aztek!" Those are truly the ugliest production cars ever made! Beautiful TR. One time I'll have to get out there. It's only a (long) day's drive from here. Eric

^ Maybe it was a "fish-ous" cycle! [rim shot] Seriously, sorry about your fish. The girls went to Grandma's, so now I get the house to myself---all evening! Eric
