Popcorn---at the movies or anytime! Eric

Scaparri asked: "Lou, what exactly is the 'drawl?'" I think she has a thing for a Southerner or a Texan. Eric

Here in the U.S., we say that British have an accent. Do you in the U.K. think that we Americans have an accent? Eric

Ours is wayyy short. I wasn't impressed. We spent more time on the final turnaround than we did on the ride! Eric

I have always had a thing for Asian ladies (married one, too, though things aren't going so well these days). But I agree with you, Scaparri, a British accent is indeed intriguing. Eric

^ Collisions with trains are fairly common here in SoCal. And now that the MTA has a new busway, which is essentially like a light rail line but using buses, collisions between them and cars will be common. In fact, the line has been open only a week and there've been two serious accidents (drivers ran red lights) on the same day! Eric

Congratulations to you, Dave and Mary! Time does fly, huh? It was nice to meet both of you earlier this year at SFMM when you were out here. Eric

I'm eating soup. Eric

^ By then, this thread will be 300 pages. Eric

^ You're not alone. I, too, prefer food with little or no "sauce," as it were. I get tired of people who seem to think they know what's best for me, whether it's food, activities, whatever. See, I'm 46 years old, more than old enough to make decisions for myself. Eric

The Jews can have it. The diabetics will just watch... Eric

^^ You're right---that's why I came up with such a lame idea for a ride. Eric

Well, you folks in Pahrump could use some tourist traffic. Pahrump isn't exactly on the beaten path, y'know... Eric

I've tried to click the Statistics link just under the site banner and it tells me that the page cannot be found. Just wondering what was going on. Eric

^ That gives new meaning to a ride you went on! Eric

If only someone could get close to those plans with a camera... That "business office" looks like it still has the menu board up! Eric "Less than two weeks till we find out the details" L.

Pfft to all of you. My inverted, standup, fourth-dimensional, hyper-bench log flume will r0x0r teh s0x0r off of all who ride. So stand back, stand clear---your ride awaits... Eric

^ Joined on the first day. < Joined shortly thereafter. V Joined two pieces of paper with glue and gave himself a round of applause!

"May 1996 At Six Flags Magic Mountain a 25-year-old male employee was struck by a 6-ton train on the park's Revolution roller coaster as he was crossing the track in the station." (Emphasis mine.) It was a female attendant, actually. That was on May 30, the original media event day for Superman---The Escape. (That event was delayed due to the ride not being ready. Otherwise, I would have been at the park that day.) Anyway, I know that's a minor detail, but it makes me wonder about the accuracy of some of the sites that deal with these things. Eric

^^ Think "Skyway" at Disneyland. Same thing. Eric

I just sneezed. Twice. Eric

Leave it to Beaver Eric

Coke is it. Well, Diet Coke, actually because of stupid diabetes. Eric

^ Used to have a dog. < Still has a dog. V Still has fleas!
