I'll see if I can get the A&E Manager at my work to put it on the TV to see how it looks. -
Worlds of Fun (WOF) Discussion Thread

The problem for me with the Dinosaur attractions are that it's an upcharge. It would be great to just be able to walk around and see it, but it's not worth extra money for me. -

I wish Pokagon State Park had an alpine coaster, but they have a toboggan! That looks like a ton of fun! I wish we could get something like that in Tahoe! -
Worst Coaster Experience

X. I felt like a pinball in a steel cage. It's the first time I honestly felt like something in my body was going to break. -
What park should have an Intamin Mega-Lite?

I'd love CGA to get rid of Vortex and put a Mega-Lite in. -

It's a good thing it's not going to a SF park! They would make sure to balance it out so that it's as extreme as a normal swing. -

Silver Dollar City (SDC) Discussion Thread

Have they started their Christmas celebrations yet? Anyone go? -
Good to hear. I didn't really like the 3rd book at all, but now I'm looking forward to the movie a little more. Just got back from Interstellar. I liked it. But I pretty much like all Space movies. I was one of those totally nerdy kids that went to Space Camp. It seemed like a mix between Sunshine (really liked that movie), and the good parts of Contact (yeah, there weren't too many in that movie). The movie was a little, ok, way over the top on some things but I liked it.
