  1. Sonic 2 from Sonic Mega Collection on the Gamecube. That game is such a classic.
  2. Chiller ops just aren't as cool as the Acro op's at SFOG. If you have seen the Whootah! Video of SFOG entered in the TPR 2004 Video Contest. The ops are like... "Acrophobia will drop in 5, 4, 3 (ring drops)." Whootah dude: "PSYCHE!"
  3. LOL, same here. Sent mine in, can't wait for the results. And your idiot's guide helped!
  4. Six Flags Six Flags
  5. 57% (Dixie). Right on the Mason-Dixon Line Must be the entire life in Florida, my parents being yankees, and me liking to watch Blue Collar TV/Comedy Tour movies.
  6. I don't think it would beat the CondomNation store outside of Pittsburgh .
  7. ^Stay the day, most of HOS's houses are returns.
  8. So I arrive at the park at 9:15 and dash over to SheiKra. I only had a one train wait for the back row for some serious air. It seems SheiKra's mid course brake run has become more slower. Either to keep up suspense or lower the air. I was a little disappointed by that, but still had a great ride. SheiKra; 7/10 After everybodys favorite Latin singing coaster, I decided to walk through Congo. A member on floridathrills.net were curious about a defunct ride and where it was located. The defunct ride? An old Eyerly (?) Aircraft Monster flat ride called the "Monstrous Mamba". The remnants of the old flat are still there, the queue and ride area has become seating for the nearby Vivi Storehouse restruant. Hard to believe, but the ride had a nice waiting area, but a bit messy. Lets just say there was a beer cup full of number one and I didn't want to go further than that. I took a few pics, then left. After that, I got some decent shots of everybody's favorite old Arrow Corkscrew, The Python. I was then going to walk toward Kumba, I arrived at the area, but then here is the number one thing that would piss me off. KUMBA WAS CLOSED! Angered, I walked on over to a dead Timbuktu for a ride on Elissa's first credit and a kick ass Schwarzkopf, Scorpion. The crew there seemed a bit slackerish there and I got a back seat ride. Of course, Scorpion still had a great ride. Scorpion; 8.5/10 Following Scorpion, I walked over to Montu and suddenly I hear an announcement going throughout the bullhorn system on the Skyride. The Skyride ended up getting stalled in the high winds and just about everybody was freaking out up there. So anyways, on to Montu. ALL DAY, there were one train waits and I got a few rides on this thing. I have to say this, Montu was running a LOT better than it was a few months ago. 1. The trim by the Batwing isn't on. 2. The mid course doesn't brake that much anymore. Those two factors made Montu kicking ass like it did in 2000. All of the crazy G's and such, no feeling of rolling back on the hill between the helix and corkscrew. Montu gets a 10/10, running great with two trains all day! After Montu, I headed over to Kumba again, nope, still closed... I then went over to the Festhaus (I hate calling it Desert Grill) and had a 1/2 slab rib lunch. Great food, and got a creepy pic of Elissa's beloved Garlic Breadsticks. Following a great lunch, I suddenly hear Kumba was back up. I dashed over and waited 5 minutes to ride Kumba. Got a second row seat and this thing still kicks ass, yet a little bumpy. The zero-g giving the usual airtime, everything running smoothly. Kumba gets a 9.5/10. Following Kumba, I was bored and decided to ride the Arrow masterpeice everybody loves. Yes, I rode Python and I actually find this to be smoother than Gwazi. If a 25+ year old Corkscrew is better than a 6 year old GCI, something is wrong. Anyways, still the same bumpy and short ride. Python; 5.5/10 After a ride on old Python, I decided to get another few rides on Montu, still running on "kick ass" mode. On one of the rides on Montu, I ended up sitting next to a bunch of wasted college kids, that ride was scary just for the fact of fearing of getting puke all over you. After riding Montu, I went around and did a few more random pics and such. Following the random pics, I then dashed over to SheiKra. Suddenly I see the general public looking at SheiKra, shocked. I looked up, and joy... the train got stuck on the lift again. They had to use the emergency trolley to get the riders down. I said to myself "Lucky bastards." It would be cool just to be rescued by that little thing. But after that, I called it a day. Sorry Erik, didn't see any little kids getting owned by SheiKra's water splash. Anyways, on to the photos; Thanks imageshack.us ! I'm too darn lazy to resize these... SheiKra- second drop yo! SheiKra- the splash is tiny, trust me... Woop- my bad... Python- everybody's favorite old corkscrew. Had to walk in the landscaping a little bit to get this shot... Marvelous... On my way to Kumba- I discovered a "boneyard" behind Kumba's MCBR. That car you see there, it belongs to the mini car ride inside Land of the Dragons. This photo screams "Email Dan!" or PhotoChop Contest. GRR... I'm the Garlic Breadstick monster... PH34R M3H! Always a great sign to see this running! In there lies Furries! ALERT THE INTERNET! I went into X-cursions and decided to use their computers to check new posts on TPR. Instead, Busch blocks TPR for "shopping". Am I going to buy all of the DVD's and get a Tee at BGT? I guess TPR isn't PG-13 anymore . CAMEL TOES!!1! Lucky stiffs... they get to be rescued by the emergency trolley... Stalling from another angle. And to end this Photo TR, a Donkey. Inside the Clydesdale Hamlet lives a Donkey named Spirit. Is he the same donkey that was on the famous Budweiser commercials for the Super Bowl? Oh, and sorry for the bars, nothing I could do about that unless I were the Incredible Hulk. Comments of happy fun time?
  9. Garlic Bread from the Festhaus at BGT.
  10. It said on the blog "located near somewhere Big and Blue". Either MF or Blue Streak. Chances are, its probably wood for retracking Blue Streak?
  11. Pumpkin B looks to be the best out of the bunch.
  12. LMAO, I think this show tops the show Robb was on before he got "banned". Great show this week.
  13. If I had a time machine, I would do that. Too bad Busch doesn't have costumed mascots .
  14. LMAO, hilarious!
  15. http://www.adultswim.com/fridaynightfix/ -WARNING: Hi-Speed/Broadband highly recommended for streaming video. Well, for those of us that are TiVO deprived, bored, or can't watch AS due to school nights? Well, for those interested, Adult Swim basically on Friday nights from 11 PM- 6 AM, they have FREE streaming video of shows on the block and some premiere episodes of shows there as well. Its where I get my weekly fix of ATHF...
  16. Yay! Happy fun time gross pics! Yay! Ahem, get well soon, and a great Photo TR! -Carl "Stay Tuned for Shark Dissection, this November!" F.
  17. Wow, thats some pretty slow progress there...
  18. I think I whited out once on Kumba's helix. And Kumba's helix has so much positive G's, it has that "Your Head A-splode" feeling.
  19. This Sunday, I may head over to Busch Gardens Tampa and I am taking picture requests. So, what rides, coasters, or random crap do you want me to take pictures of?
  20. I've first seen this two years ago, freaked me out then, freaks me out now...
  21. I make my bed every morning... for some reason, leaving the house for school without making the bed makes my room feel messy. I'm odd like that...
  22. The gang went to Albertsons and decided to hold an old people cart race throughout the aisles. Needless to say, the Albertsons manager from hell came by and kicked them out...
  23. SheiKra is a great ride and a top 10 for me, but not THAT high. I wouldn't travel cross country for this, but SheiKra IS a great ride, especially in the back. The back gives out a LOT of airtime on the second drop! And BGT's collection of B&M's are probably some of the best rides I have ever rode. I just love SheiKra's air, Montu's Immelman and Batwing, and Kumba's helix with the G's that have that "your head a-splode" feeling.
  24. ... How could I NOT see that coming.
  25. http://www.iriveramerica.com/prod/ultra/u10/U10-1GB.aspx I have been looking at portable media players and comparing this model to the new iPod with Video. I seem to be leaning on buying an iPod with video because of the capacity (30 GB). But still one question ponders... Anyways, it seems that according to this image off their site; http://www.iriveramerica.com/images/prod/ultra/u10/U10-1GB/U10-1GB-TD.jpg It looks like thats a slot for an SD Card, is it? If so, I may reconsider getting this player.
