There are a grand total of five shows I actually try to watch on TV: 1. Mythbusters 2. Survivor 3. Amazing Race 4. Top Gear 5. Saturday Night Live Other than these, I will occasionally watch other shows (usually either random game shows, construction/disaster documentary shows, or travel shows about a location that interests me), but I really don't watch very much other TV.

I voted...for the Carowinds Intimidator. I know that I am in the minority, but I rode both on the Intimidator and I was one of probably five or six that actually preferred the Carowinds version. Nevertheless, I can see how I305 appeals to a lot of people. I want to give it another try at some point in the future, and with this reprofile and the trim removal, my opinion may change. However, the trims weren't the thing I didn't like...it just isn't really my type of ride. I like twisters that are small and compact (like Maverick) but for bigger coasters I prefer rides with a large number of hills. In my opinion, the speed the twists were taken at felt a little too high for my preferences and reduced the re-ride value. I prefer rides I can ride repeatedly, but after four rides during night ERT, I had had enough. It is by no means a bad ride, but just isn't one of my personal favorites (aka I'd wait an hour for it if I hadn't already rode that day, but between an hour wait for I305 and an hour wait for Volcano, I'd probably pick Volcano (which I really liked)). I'll give it another try next time I'm in Virginia (hopefully within the next 3-5 years).

As far as audio goes, I find that rides usually are in one of three categories. 1. It fits the ride and really enhances the experience. Space Mountain and California Screamin' fit this category. 2. It isn't necessary, but does have a positive benefit. This is where I place Revenge of the Mummy. 3. It is either unnecessary, difficult to hear, or detracts from the experience. X2 and Terminator (except for WCB audio) fall into this category, and based on videos this is probably where I would place Bizarro, although I will decide for sure after I ride it later this year.

I have broken a grand total of zero bones. I did, however, break a tooth in a skiing accident (and didn't realize it until years later). I've felt like I may have broken something a couple of times, but have never gone to the hospital for it as other than pain everything seemed normal.

It is really, really sad that this happened. If you decide to be someone's friend on facebook, you should be able to deal with whatever they post. If you don't like it, ignore it or de-friend them. There is no reason to go report something just because you don't like it. Robb, I hope everything works out for you. I've enjoyed reading everything you post on there, as well as watching all the videos you've made throughout the years. You are an awesome person, and it is really unfortunate that you have to deal with additional hassles such as this when you already devote so much time to pleasing members of this website you don't actually know. I sent you a friend request, but I understand if you don't re-add me as we only talked briefly a couple times on the IntimidaTour. I hope to get to know you better in the future.

I don't know all the details of this case, but I feel about the same way as I do with most lawsuits: if the victim could have easily prevented the incident, it should not be something that can win a lawsuit. It is unfortunate that a kid got burned, but this is the type of incident that could have been prevented very easily. It is similar to the McDonald's coffee suit in that way. Both of these are also things so common they could easily happen at home. Who is there to sue in that case? I really hope this lawsuit fails. It is just as dumb as the coffee suit, which should not have won (I don't care if McDonald's had hot coffee, the person shouldn't have been drinking and driving in the first place, and coffee is supposed to be hot). As for the Small World suit, I don't believe there is any reason a guest should be able to sue a park for a ride malfunction except one: a guest is injured due to an incident that didn't result from their individual stupidity and the park doesn't pay for any medical costs plus reasonable compensation. For getting stuck on a ride, exit passes should be good enough compensation. Also, those who are handicapped and choose to ride rides should be aware that, due to their circumstances, it may take longer to remove them from the attraction than it takes to remove an able guest, and they must be okay with that. I'm sure the park isn't discriminating, they are just doing everything in the safest way possible. You aren't the only one. I ride it at least once out of every four visits (or on any visit if the Holiday version is up). Of course, I only visit Disneyland once a year, and only buy a pass on years when a major new attraction is added, which is about once every four years (in which case I will visit between once a month and once every other month).

You can see several things like this at SFMM. In addition to the old track on Colossus, all of the metro track is still standing (it hasn't run in ten years, so it counts as left over). Also, parts of the old Dragon ride (such as the lower station) are easily visible. Several buildings that aren't used anymore are still standing as well. I'm sure there's probably more, but these are the ones that stand out the most.

It's about time for SeaWorld San Diego to get a major new attraction. I believe their last one was Journey to Atlantis in 2004. This honestly looks like it could end up being one of the best family coasters out there. It is exciting enough that everyone will want to ride it, but not scary enough that kids will have a problem with it. It looks like I'll have to visit SeaWorld again next year (I think I last visited in 2006) so that I can give this a try.

17/20. This seems to be around what I usually get on these things. Of course, I guessed about five times (two or three of them were incorrect guesses).

Warning! Math Heavy Post! Riders per hour is relatively easy to calculate given a few simple formulas and a calculater. Here are the ones I use. Pph=Ppt X To X Cph Where Pph=People Per Hour Ppt=People Per Train To=Trains Operating Cph=Cycles Per Hour In addition, the following equation is used to calcuate dispatches per hour. Cph=3600/(Lt+Rt) Where Lt=Load Time Rt=Ride Time When using this formula, the time must be measured in seconds (60 seconds per minute, 60 minutes per hour, 60 X 60=3600 seconds per hour). Also, in one cycle, each operating train will dispatch once. To convert this number to dispatches per hour, just multipy by the number of operating trains. On most rides, load time is not something that can be easily looked up. Therefore, I use one final formula to estimate the load time. Lt=1.5S+Lof if train uses simple restraints (only a lap bar, only a shoulder harness, no additional belts, etc...) Lt=2.25S+Lof if train uses complex restraints (any restraint with an additional belt or a combination of simple restraints) Where S=Seats per train Laf=Loose Article Factor. If no loose articles are allowed in the station, Laf=0. If loose articles are allowed, Laf=0.35Ppt. Using all of these three equations, you can usually get a pretty good idea for the capacity of a ride. For theoretical, plug in information found online. For actual capacity, you can take data at the park. Keep in mind that all of these, especially the load time estimator, are all estimations, but I've found them to be fairly accurate. The load time estimator has been within about 15% everywhere I've tested it (time load cycle on cell phone and compare to calculated value). However, for naturally slow loading rides (such as Stand-Up or Flying coasters) it will give a significantly low estimate. That's about all I've got.

Since I listen to instrumental sountrack stuff and almost always have my Ipod on shuffle, this list is going to be very random. (#. Title-Movie/Location-Composer) 1.

Let's do a side by side comparison. Pixar: I've seen every Pixar movie except for Ratatouille and and Wall-E. I like every Pixar movie except A Bug's Life and Cars (which, IMO, is totally not deserving of a sequel). Toy Story 3, my favorite Pixar movie, was my second favorite movie of 2010 and is one of my top 25 movies. I have found every Pixar movie to be entertaining, and most of them are movies I wouldn't mind seeing again, but the bottom two listed here are ones I don't care to ever see again (not because they were necessarily bad, but because they just don't appeal to me enough). DreamWorks: I've seen every DreamWorks movie released up until Over the Hedge except for Spirit, but I have not seen any beyond that point, although I have seen portions of Shrek 4. Of those, the only ones I really liked were the first two Shrek movies (with the original being my favorite DreamWorks movie) and Wallace & Gromit. Most of the other ones were roughly equivalent to the bottom two Pixar movies I listed above. Shark Tale, which is the worst DreamWorks movie out of the ones I have seen, is the only one that I didn't at least find entertaining. The Bottom Line: In general, I can summarize this in the following way...Pixar's movies are generally really good, and are definitely worth watching. They are also movies that are still entertaining after multiple viewings (up to a certain extent). DreamWorks movies aren't necessarily bad, but they are only really worth watching once. DreamWorks movies are generally kids' movies, while Pixar's are usually family movies. In short, Pixar is better. But DreamWorks isn't bad, just not as good.

Today, crowds were light. Everything was a walk-on or near walk-on except for the following, which had waits greater than four trains: Viper, Tatsu (middle of day only), and Apocalypse (in the afternoon), however I did not ride Scream so I can't comment on its wait time. Longest wait was about 25 minutes for Apocalypse at around 3:30 in the afternoon. At opening, about 90% of the crowd present went to X2, but by 1:00 it was a three train wait. One train operation on Viper, Ninja, Apocalypse, Riddler's Revenge, Gold Rusher, and Scream, two trains on everything else. Colossus and Deja Vu closed. On Apocalypse and Riddler's Revenge, there were signs out front warning guests that there was only one train in operation. Apocalypse was not using the preshow in the morning, but they switched them on when there were enough people in line to fill the station and extend approximately half-way down the stairs. The weather was cold but it never really rained (more heavy drizzle for a short period in the middle of the day). I can also confirm that there are Green Lantern pieces on site next to the Road Runner Express pieces in the lot behind Apocalypse. In addition, it appeared that Superman now has a backwards car on both tracks, although since I could only see inside from Goliath and the station area was fairly dark I can't be 100% certain.

Picking one movie is too hard. Instead, I'll list the movies I'd give an A rating (in no particular order): The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Terminator 2 Godfather I & II Inception Dr. Strangelove One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Star Wars IV & V Raiders of the Lost Ark Saving Private Ryan The Dark Knight 12 Angry Men The Matrix Rear Window Sunset Blvd. City Lights Toy Story 3 True Grit To Kil a Mockingbird

1. Dollywood 2. Busch Gardens Williamsburg 3. Disneyland 4. Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park 5. SeaWorld San Diego 6. Universal Studios Hollywood 7. Six Flags Magic Mountain 8. Disney's California Adventure 9. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom 10. Kings Dominion As of this writing, I have visited every actual amusement park in California, Nevada, Tennessee, and Virginia, as well as Carowinds and Cedar Point.

I've taken another look the parks in the Cedar Fair chain, and I'm predicting Invertigo will go to one of the following four parks. 1. Michigan's Adventure-This would be a great coaster here as the park doesn't have any type of shuttle coaster yet and the capacity matches the crowd levels. However, they did get an SLC a few years ago so I don't know if it will wind up here. 2. Valleyfair-This is the only other park in the Cedar Fair chain that has a low enough crowd level for the ride. However, they do have Steel Venom. Either way, this and Michigan's Adventure are the most likely choices. 3. Kings Dominion-If I remember correctly, at ECB it was stated that the park was planning to remove Shockwave in the near future. It may be just me, but I think Invertigo would be an excellent replacement if the park wants to do it cheaply. 4. Cedar Point-I doubt this will happen, but how quickly could the ride be relocated? I could possibly see Cedar Point installing it super quick just to keep SFMM from claiming the most coasters record completely. Unlike what some other people have said, I really don't think the ride will go to Dorney Park because that park already has Possessed and it is a major park. If I had to place my money on it, I'd say Michigan's Adventure, but wouldn't rule out the other three yet. As for CGA, this is definitely a sign, but whether it is positive or negative is impossible to determine yet. If the park does indeed replace the ride for 2012 or even 2013, it could be a sign that Cedar Fair is serious about the park and is finally ready to do something. If nothing materializes, however, I'd say that Cedar Fair has decided to let the park die. For now, the park seems like it just barely is able to survive, and I am pretty sure that the season Flight Deck vanishes will be the final season for the park.

If Invertigo is leaving, that leaves the park with one good coaster. I really hope that they get a new coaster for 2012 or that park is going to die. I've only visited on a weekday in the summer, and both times there was never a line longer than ten minutes for anything other than the water park rides and the log flume (which were 15-20). I'm tentatively planning to go back up to nor cal in 2012 to visit my relatives and do a mini-trip of the four parks up there, but if CGA doesn't get a new coaster I may give that one a miss. I only rode Invertigo once. It was a pretty good ride, second best in the park in my opinion (after Flight Deck). I wonder if it will be scrapped, sold, or relocated. I can think of a couple Cedar Fair parks that could use it. Youngest major coaster. Taxi Jam opened in 1999 and Psycho Mouse opened in 2001. Still, ten years without a coaster is too long for a major park. How many other major parks have gone ten years without a new coaster? I can't think of any if parks that aren't thrill focused are excluded. ^^Beat me to it.

^Yes, I usually do two to four days of skiing in Southern California. I've been to Mt. Baldy a couple of times, and I like that ski area, but due to the lack of snowmaking I am only able to go on good snow years. Most of the time, I go to Big Bear (which is one of my favorite So Cal resorts), but have also been to Mt. High (which I don't like too much). I've been to Snow Valley as well, but I personally think they are too expensive for what they offer, so even though there are never any crowds I rarely go there. If you like Mt. Baldy, you should try Mt. Waterman. I personally like it better than Baldy even though it is smaller, although it is cheaper, and completely empty, and the two ski areas are similar terrain-wise (although Baldy probably has slightly steeper terrain).

I am apparently just as good at this as I am at real crane machines. I just played for the first time and won something. Now I'll have to see how my brother does later tonight. If he wins, he's gonna send it to our dad's house and not tell him to see what his reaction is (he doesn't know about the Santa Claw).

Jackson Hole was one of the destinations we considered, but ultimately we decided to go to Salt Lake City instead for two reasons. First, my dad said ten hours of driving was about all he could do in a day. Jackson Hole is 15 hours away, and if we traveled all the way up there it would cut our skiing time down from four days to two (or possibly two and a half), as there was no way we could extend the trip. We looked into flying, but decided that would be a little too expensive for our budget, and with that combined with the fact I really don't like air travel when it can be avoided we ruled out flying completely. Second, Jackson Hole is expensive and challenging. While my dad likes almost any type of terrain, I usually only ski some black runs and rarely ski double blacks. With half of Jackson Hole being black or double black, we decided it just wasn't the best place to go. Maybe on a future trip we'll give it a try, but not this season. Anyway, time for another update. January 9th, 2011-Brian Head Resort We woke up at 8:00 A.M., got dressed, and headed down to the hotel restaurant for breakfast. On the way, we noticed that the ski area was fogged in. Although we could see the mountain, we couldn't see any of the lifts or trails. We had breakfast, then packed up the car, checked out, and drove to the ski area. Although it was nearly a half-hour after opening when we pulled into the parking lot, we were still able to park right next to the lodge. We carried our equipment over to the lodge and purchased tickets, discovering that a full day ticket to Brian Head was the same price as a half-day ticket at LVSSR. After getting changed into ski clothes, we hit the slopes. Brian Head is (as far as I know) the only ski area in the southern part of Utah. It is what I call a mid-size ski area. 650 acres with 9 lifts (7 triple chairs, 1 double chair, and a surface lift) accessing 65 trails, the longest of which is almost 8000 ft, as well as three terrain parks, on a mountain with 1700 ft of vertical. Due to the relatively remote location of Brian Head, it is rarely crowded. We didn't wait in a single line longer than three chairs during the day, and even though the lodge wasn't that big we had no trouble finding a table for lunch. The weather may have played a role in this, but I highly doubt the ski area gets too much more crowded except during holiday weekends. Before I talk about the area, I will say that my review is somewhat skewed due to weather. In the morning, the upper mountain was foggy, and visibility was somewhat poor. On the chairlift, you could only see about two towers in front of you, and when skiing it was difficult to tell which run you were on relative to the rest of the mountain. In the afternoon, the fog cleared and it got sunny, but there was a slight breeze that closed about three quarters of the main mountain. Due to this early closure, I didn't end up getting a chance to explore every area on the mountain, although I got to most of it. Brian Head is naturally divided up into three separate areas, so I will talk about each one separately. Brian Head Peak Brian Head Peak is the main part of the ski area. At its base is the Giant Steps Logde, and the slopes are serviced by four lifts. Two of the lifts form a V out of the base area, and the other two start mid-mountain. Using these four lifts, it is possible to access almost any type of terrain that can be found at the ski area. Chair #2: Giant Steps-This is the mountain's main lift. It is a Lift Engineering triple chair installed in the 1980s. The lift is 4800 ft long with 1100 ft of vertical and forms the right side of the base area V. After a 10 minute ride, you are at the summit of the ski area. From this lift, it is possible to access everything on Brian Head Peak. There are no beginner trails down from the summit, but intermediate, and advanced runs can be found. This is also the location of the access gate to hike to the very top of Brian Head Peak, adding about 600 ft of vertical and allowing access to untracked backcountry terrain (as with all ski areas, skiing beyond the boundary is for experts only). I did several runs off this lift throughout the day. Chair #3: Blackfoot- This is the oldest lift on the mountain, and is the only beginner lift on Brian Head Peak. In addition to beginner terrain, a couple intermediate trails and one advanced one can be accessed from this lift. The chair itself is another Lift Engineering triple chair, and is the only lift on the mountain remaining from the 1970s. It forms the other side of the base area V. 2200 ft long with 400 ft of vertical, this is a great lift for beginners, but is relatively boring for anyone else. We only used this lift once, mainly so I could get the lift credit. Chair #5: Roulette- This was probably my favorite lift on Brian Head Peak. It doesn't start at the base, but instead starts near the top of the Blackfoot chair and heads toward the top of the Giant Steps chair, but doesn't reach it. Another 1980s Lift Engineering triple, 3000 ft long with 700 ft of vertical, accessing both intermediate and advanced terrain, as well as the only lift serviced expert trail on the mountain (Devo's Pitch). We only did this lift a couple times, early in the day. When the wind started to pick up, this was the first chair to close. Chair #7: The Dunes-This chair is another Lift Engineering triple, and was installed the same year as the Giant Steps lift. 2500 ft long, 500 ft of vertical, and access to unique intermediate and advanced terrain that can't be accessed when this lift is closed. Unfortunately, I didn't get to ski any of this terrain because the wind closed this chair before I got a chance to ski down to it. The lift itself ends at the top of the mountain, but extends down a separate face, so skiing the terrain if the lift ins't running will lead to a bit of hiking and a lot of pushing. At least the terrain didn't look very different from that accessed by the other lifts, so I didn't end up missing much. Navajo Mountain Navajo Mountain is a separate part of the ski area across the street from Brian Head Peak. This side of the resort is entirely beginner and intermediate terrain. This is also where the tubing park is located. I only skied over to this side of the ski area to get my lift credits. Chair #4-Navajo- The main lift on Navajo Mountain. Another 1980s Lift Engineering triple (this ski area has a lot of these, don't they?). This lift is 3900 ft long with 600 ft of vertical. I'm sure beginners could probably ski this lift all day without getting bored, as there are numerous easy trails down. Other than the top quarter of the lift, the rest of the line is nearly flat, and I'm sure the other slopes on this mountain aren't much different. Chair #6-Pioneer- The only double chair on the mountain (which is also a 1980s Lift Engineering lift). This is the ski area's absolute beginner lift. I would have ridden it just to get the lift credit, but since it was a little isolated from the rest of the ski area, and was only 1000 ft long with 100 ft of vertical, I gave it a miss. Brian Head Interconnect This part of the mountain was just added in 2007. It consists of two Doppelmayr CTEC triple chairs, one on each side of a ski bridge over the road. Before this area was added, the only way to cross between Brian Head Peak and Navajo Mountain was via a shuttle bus. Now, anybody of at least intermediate ability (or a skilled beginner) can cross on skis. Chair #1-Wildflower- This is the lift on the Navajo Mountain side of the interconnect. 2800 ft long with 500 ft of vertical. The lift accesses a lot of intermediate terrain, as well as a couple beginner trails and one advanced trail. We did a few runs of this lift before leaving once the upper lifts closed due to wind, but unless you are a skilled beginner or low intermediate that is about the most you can do without getting bored of these trails. Chair #8-Alpen Glow- This lift is here solely to complete the interconnect, and climbs up the Brian Head Peak side. It is only 2300 ft long, but still has just as much vertical as the Wildflower lift. Skiing on the advanced runs directly under the lift allows you to ski what is probably some of the steepest terrain at Brian Head. The only other trail down here is an intermediate rated cat-track. Although we used this lift a few times, we didn't spend very much time on it. Now that I've talked about each portion of the ski area separately, I'll talk about it as a whole for a moment. Brian Head is not a very challenging mountain. Most of what they consider advanced runs would be considered intermediate at a large ski area such as Mammoth Mountain. My dad skied the one expert trail accessable without hiking, and said that Mammoth's Center Bowl (an advanced-intermediate trail) was more challenging. Despite this, Brian Head is a really nice mid-size ski area. I think I need to try it again in more decent weather to be sure, but I think it might beat out June Mountain as my favorite mid-size ski area. The one thing it needs is an upgrade to the Giant Steps chair, as that lift takes too long. Other than that, there was nothing I didn't like about the ski area itself. Two other comments about the ski area. First, the food service here is different from many other ski areas. Most places, you wait in line to place your order, then pick it up. Here, you place an order and they give you a number. You pay and get drinks, then go sit down and they bring the food to you. Second, be wary of wind at this ski area. On my visit, the Giant Steps, Roulette, and Dunes lifts closed around noon due to high winds. However, the wind was only blowing about 15 mph. I have been skiing at Mammoth before when the wind speed is probably around 40, and they have still been running everything. Since Mammoth has a lot of Lift Engineering chairs as well, I'm pretty confident Brian Head could have kept running their chairs and closed them partly due to the lack of crowds. Either way, this was the reason we left early (around 1:30 P.M.). After leaving, we drove back down Interstate 15, back through Arizona, back through Nevada (where we stopped for gas), and back into California, where we stopped at a Taco Bell in Baker for dinner. We then continued on home, reaching our destination around 9:00 P.M. This was the end of the only multi-day ski trip I have done where I spent more hours in the car than on my skis. Brian Head pictures are below. I didn't take very many due to the weather being bad and it being too cold up until lunch to remove my gloves. I don't know when I'll next update this, but I plan to keep it going all season whether or not this thread gathers interest. I usually do two or three multi-day trips, plus two to four days at local resorts per year, so hopefully there will be a bit more to come. The view from the parking lot. The lift seen here is the Giant Steps Chair. Base of the Giant Steps Chair. Pay attention to the terminal design, as there may or may not be a quiz on lift manufacturers at the end of the season. Blackfoot chair. This picture was taken during the wind hold, so at this time Blackfoot was the only chair open on Brian Head Peak. That line probably represents about 20% of the people on the mountain, showing the low number of people on this day. Navajo Mountain from the Giant Steps parking lot. The lift seen here is the Wildflower Chair. This is the reason we left an hour early. If only the beginner chair is open, it is somewhat pointless to continue skiing. Boo! I hate it when I see this sign.

I would define a rare credit as any ride that falls under one of the following three categories: 1. The coaster closed long enough ago that the majority of today's credit-counting population never got a chance to ride it. I usually say this is around fifty years, but rides that closed a long time ago may have had many riders over their lifetimes, there are just relatively few that remain. 2. A coaster that operated for less than half a decade and had infrequent operations during that period. A ride that operated for short periods at several different locations does not qualify for this. 3. A coaster with a strict maximum height restriction of 54 inches or lower. By my definition, I have been on two rare credits: 1. Miner Mike at the Adventuredome-The first time I visited Las Vegas, I happened to be just below the maximum height requirement and rode, although I wasn't counting credits back then. 2. Windjammer Surf Racers at Knott's Berry Farm-Almost every time I visited the park after this ride was built, it was closed, and on the one day it was operating the line was over two hours and I decided not to ride. Finally, in January 2000, I visited the park on a day the ride was open. Even rarer, both tracks were running at the same time, so I was able to get both credits. The ride's final operating day was less than two months later.

I have been on Dominator and the two California floorless coasters, and found Dominator to be significantly better than either of the two in California. This summer, I will be riding Bizarro and Batman-The Dark Knight, but I doubt either of them will be better than Dominator.

I have a bunch of parks within two hours of me, all of which I consider home parks. However, the ones that I have visited consistently the most often are the Disneyland Resort and Knott's Berry Farm. Up until Summer of 2010, Disneyland was my favorite park. However, after visiting Dollywood and Busch Gardens Williamsburg last August, it has been dethroned.

I'm not interested for two reasons: 1. I don't have a Blu-Ray player and 2. I already have Raw 1-5 and wouldn't want to buy the same footage again even if there is a sligtht quality difference. If I ever get a Blu-Ray player, however, I will definitely buy any Blu-Ray releases that contain unique footage that hasn't been released on DVD yet.

This year's WCB looks awesome. I am 100% I'm going to the SFMM day, but I'm not sure about the Knott's day yet. It depends on whether or not I can convince anyone to go with me, as well as whether or not I think I'll be able to focus in my Physics class the next day. I think I'll give my guests a week or so to decide if they want to go, and if so, which days, before I buy tickets.
