Token Yankee Guy

I'm 19 years old. My first coaster was "Little Rickies Twister" at Riverside Amusement Park in Agawam, Mass. My first wooden coaster was Thunderbolt at the same park First inverted one was Mind Eraser

That is so true with my situation. Well it's starting to manifest it's self out like that. I myself am an Episcopalian, I've been going to this one church for like 15 years of my life and it's my home church and I loved going there because everyone in the parish was really friendly. But now supposedly they are finding out that I'm gay. I was told this yesterday from my sister caused my mom told her. Turns out like the youth group were cleaning the kitchen and they decided to have a prayer circle about me (Like that scene in "Saved"). And pretty much that pisses me off because I know in my heart that I was born gay. I didn't choose a life of persecution. But due to the closed-mindedness of my church, they choose not to accept people for who they are. Anyway, My parents and friends of the family are deciding on leaving the church and searching for another Episcopal church. It's sad to see our church going downhill but it's their own fault. And also, I don't care dropping the friendship I have with the people at church because I have a far more better group of friends up here at school that accept me for who I am.

^ Are you guys still contemplating on making a trip up to SFNE before PPP to check out the new water slide and such? If I recall, have you guys ever been in SFNE's waterpark?

Damn you Gregg for raising my hopes then crushing them. I thought the thread was an article that he actually ran from the police, but it's actually a photoshop photo. Craiggers "it's still funny" K.

^^^ You look familiar .

^ They didn't put a Fast Lane label on pandemonium on the 2005 park map. But maybe they will add a Fast Lane for the ride. Heck, the park map even still claims that Cyclone doesn't have Fast Lane and at one point, the map made the claim that Time Warp had Fast Lane.

^ Well, we'll have to wait and see what Opening Day brings.

^ Breath Elissa, Breath....If you noticed by the artist rendering, the Mr. Six statues are pretty close to the track...so all you have to do is smuggle a bat onto the right and just whack him down. Also, what do you think about the new water coaster? I think that it's cool that SFNE is the first to have a Mr. Six themed right, the track looks like a mess and it's going to be boat loads of fun. Can you imagine just in the car when you get near Time Warp when it's running.... But I do agree the Mr. Six theme is a bit tacky, but I'll still ride the coaster.

Our 2005 Park Map is up and it shows the new additions http://www.sfne.com/photos/park/maps/sfnemap05_large.jpg courtesy of www.sixflags.com/parks/newengland and www.sfne.com

Make sure the contest is during theme park seasons since I do want to make a new video thats better then my old one.

^ haha I belive it's slated to open the same day the park opens for the season which is April 21st.

The SFNE Website just posted a lot of stuff pertaining to the two new attractions. Check out these artist renderings I got from the site Mr Six's Pandemonium Typhoon Water Coaster Pictures from: http://www.sixflags.com/parks/newengland/ParkPress/mediacenter.html

^ Yeah, I believe it is. Also, If you watch the video they announce that it's new technology so it's not like the regular waterslides where water pushes you up, it's like this high speed conveyer belt that brings you up. And those are some big hills the slide has! [Edit] Ignore what I said here earlier, I read further into what I found and someone corrected the person who claimed it was a White Water manufactured slide. Supposedly they said that Pro Slides will also be using the same technology when it comes to the acceleration belts when going up hill. So I apologize, looks like it will be a Pro Slides slide[/Edit]

But I did see a picture of what is supposedly the slingshot... anyway, the two new rides which we all pretty much knew were the spinning coaster in the north end and the typhoon water coaster slide. Mr. Six's Pandemonium will be the first coaster inspired by the character. Photos... From: prnewswire.com from prnewswire.com IMO, I think these will be some good additions to the park since our last one was in 2003 with the waterpark expansion.

^ The Charmin bears is just plain wrong, showing animals take a dump in nature..what the crap... Then you got the guy who loves squeezing the charmin like it's a fetish.

^ What happend was we were at Hersheypark the night before and the following day. This was during that 7-10pm preview time and we were the last two for the seats so we got to stay on the train for the last 4 runs to get everyone a chance to ride in the front row. The last two rides, people who got out of the train found other seats and got back on, then on the final run Derek and I yelled to the rest of the group that they allowed them to come back up the exit for the final run of the night. When we left we stopped by Guest Relations and gave an excellent report on how the Ride-Ops handled the two line jumpers, then giving us additional rides on SR at the end of the night. I still laugh when I heard Robb first say to the lady at guest relations, "I'd like to report on how awful this park is...just kidding."

Well the scab finally came off my gash that I got two weeks ago and it looks like this is the final product for my scar. now you guys can like awe at my scar and my slightly higher left eyebrow then my right eyebrow.l

Wow...thats a lot of traffic advisories... Thats why I prefer Maine traffic...two cars, a tractor, and a moose. Craiggers "CT Traffic sucks also" K.

^ He was pretending to be marry poppins. It's worse when it happens right infront of you. I had to wash my eyes out with soap after seeing that. Craiggers "Just kidding Robb, I still love ya " K.

Well, since everyones posting more pictures intead of one, I think I'll post a few more. Derek and I on Storm Runner where we rode four consecutive times! Yes, thats how great HP employees are. I made "Silliest face of the update" (Last two photos were from themeparkreview.com) Me taken in the old Babb's Rink back in CT. We were given permission to go into the building to look around since it's due to re-open

^ Hey, I got picasa2. So much better then my Olympus program. Here's my l33tness of a desktop. The link on my desktop is real. It has my videos I did for Video Production II class, feel free to check them out.

Oh come on, even I know the answer to that question. Craiggers "Probably Elissa" K.

Six Flags New England's Hurricane Harbor. We are going to get a new slide called a Typhoon Water Slide, but no one knows what it is. So we gotta wait 3 more days until the announcement.

Heres a picture of me. Here's a sexy pose of me. Yeah, you guys want me
