That wasn't a cop car behind you, was it? Eric

coasterdude5 asked: "Do you HAVE to be in ACE to see the diagram?" You have to be an ACE member to get RollerCoaster! Magazine. Eric

I play a mean picket fence. Just give me the right stick... Eric

Knott's had one called Windjammer. And it was soooo popular that the park decided to scrap it before it wore out with everyone lined up for hours to ride it. Eric

I do like a good dark ride. It's too bad that Six Flags parks for the most part don't do them, but given the audience they seem to attract, the rides would be vandalized in no time. Eric

Today was $1 Chicken McNugget Tuesday. Guess where I ate lunch? Eric

^^ Mine quit mid-cycle a couple of weeks ago and did for several loads. Then I slammed the lid and it hasn't done it since. Sometimes you have to show inanimate objects just who's the boss! Eric

^ You keep it WHERE?!?!? Whatever, I like to mix a little low-sodium soy sauce in it. That's good on fish and chips. Give it a try! And yes, I keep it in the fridge. I know the vinegar in it will help preserve it without refrigeration, but I'd rather keep it cold. It really doesn't take up that much room. Eric

Coasterdude5, you're right about people needing to exercise, but you could have been a bit less condescending about it. I got up to 210 (I'm 5'-8", and that's waaayyyy too plump), then around when I turned 40, I shed 50 lbs. very quickly even though I wasn't exercising or eating properly. That raised a huge WTF?!?!? and got me to my doctor. Diabetes, which I get to deal with for the rest of my life. Now I check in at 150 lbs., which is fine, but what a way to get there. Anyway, I do like tea and drink plenty of it. This new product may be a good thing. Eric

This thread is scaring me... Eric

No use crying over spilled milk... Eric

I will agree with Elissa that a lap bar only setup would improve Flashback 100%. Premier did it to their coasters, why can't it be done with this one? And while they're at it, fix Revolution, too, since it uses the same restraints. Eric

What is that, a 4 oz. soda? No refills, either I'll bet. The park looks cool, though. Too bad I didn't have more time back in May when I was in Amarillo; I'd have driven over there. Eric

We have four-year-olds posting now? :shock: Well, whatever, welcome and hope you enjoy Orlando when you're nine! Eric

It's been most pleasant here in Ventura County---at least in the western part. Nights have been wonderful; low 70s...perfect walking weather. In fact, I think I just talked myself into one. Eric

^ Flashback doesn't take up that much space, but it's stupid for SFMM to advertise that they have 16 coasters when one is pretty much down for good. (I saw a commercial a couple of nights ago---"With 16 heart-pounding coasters..." Though "head pounding" might be closer for some of them.) SFMM ought to just move Flashback over next to Psyclone or put it in the remaining part of the Scream! lot or whatever. Hurricane Harbor can use the expansion room anyway. Eric

^ It'll be sad to see you guys go, but if it means a better life for you, then go for it! Even though I do like California, sometimes I think maybe I should rethink staying here. Eric

^^ You too, eh Bocakey? I'm usually pretty good, but sometimes I slip. However, if you look around, you can find some pretty good sugar free stuff. At least here in the US; I don't know about your neck of the woods. Part of the problem with that pork pie isn't the pork, it's the egg in it. I just don't eat the darned things (can't stand 'em!). Eric

^^ Like my avatar! Sometimes change is good, but sometimes leaving something alone is, too. Eric

Weird question...is the Coke where you are different from what we get here in the USA? I've always wondered if Coke is Coke is Coke, or if it's better elsewhere? Eric

Hahahahahahahaha! It's so funny to see stuff from Camarillo and Oxnard in your report!!! And Costco, too! That reminds me, I need some stuff there... What intersection is it where the signal is being replaced? Diana's not in school right now, so I haven't had any reason to go over by the high school. I have seen the signal light parts laying around over there for awhile, though. Eric "I need to do a random trip report sometime" L.

^ That is...well...um, well, you won't catch me eating it... Eric

I like key lime pie, but I eat it carefully so I won't bite down on one of the keys. That would hurt! Eric

^ Not into rice cakes. < Not into Witness. V Not into thinking!

I get next Monday off! Eric
