  1. You know, I hate winter! I really do, winter sucks balls. But when I complain about it, people always ask me "so why do you live in New England?" I hate when people ask me that. I didnt have a choice in the matter, i was born here. Rob
  2. You know, it was very nice in New England today, but the weather people dont know whats going on. Hell, they said something about snow showers tomorrow, but who knows. All I know is that the temp is going to drop like 20 degrees from what is was today... Grrrr... But you know what Mark Twain said about New England weather? "If you dont like the weather, wait 5 minutes." Rob
  3. I want my kitty!!! At least its really just a game. Although, i hope this isnt an "Enders Game" type of game... Rob P.S. Can you beat my low score of 13 ft???
  4. I dont like this game... But here, have a letter anyway... mako Rob "Any FF7 people out there?" D
  5. Hi, my name is not Melissa. But I hate english! Not that that means anything anyway. Rob
  6. Thats kind of funny, I was actually planning on going to coney island in may. Just the weekend before that one. Rob
  7. Im a movie film projectionist for a large movie theatre. But i only do that when im not at school. But that might be changing if i can get an internship this summer in my field. Cross your fingers! Rob
  8. Im with you on that one. Next Saturday baby!!!! I wonder if mr six will be open then. probably not, but who knows. Rob
  9. According to mapquest, Hershey is 1 hour, 22 minutes from Allentown PA. So, if you take my estimate, and your estimate, add them together, and divide by 2, we get pretty much the theoretical driving time. Rob
  10. Thats pretty cool. I cant wait to ride this bad boy. Wait, are roller coasters guys or girls? You know how people refer to cars or airplanes as female, but are roller coasters male or female. To me, they are neither. They are home to me... Rob
  11. I would suggest flying into Boston. That way you can hit up SFNE (Its about 1.5 hours outside boston), and Lake compounce (Home to Superman Ride of steel (the better one) and Boulder Dash respectively). This might work better than flying into NYC and going straight to Great Adventure. Also, this might be a better route if you choose to skip Darien Lake. Also, Lake Compounce is a small park, so you could spend half a day there and use the rest of the day to travel. Plus i believe they have free soda with park admission (or they did last year). Great adventure is about 3-4 hours drive from lake compounce, probably closer to 3, and Lake Compounce is about 1 hour away from SFNE. Also, if you are going to hit up hershey, you might want to think about going to dorney park on the way. It migh help to pick up a seasons pass from dorney, because as far as i know, you can use it at Cedar point and Guaga Lake. But i could be wrong there. Dorney is about 1 hour from Great adventure, and hershey is about 1 hour from dorney, all pretty much on the way if you are traveling west. Thats pretty much the extent of my expertise of the North East parks. Rob "less then 2 weeks before my coaster season starts!" D
  12. Man, you just gotta love the narrators on those shows. They say stupid things like: "The only thing that has more adrenaline than this is being attacked by a tiger, but then again, this is Gwazi" Stupid, Stupid stuff like that. It kinda makes you wonder how bad the writers failed english!!! "Now, get ready for 3000 feet of spine twisting, hair raising track on this mega floorless loop coaster, built by Bollinger and Mabillard" "Built by world renowned swedish roller coaster designers, Vekoma International, This SLC will leave you with nothing but a complete head ache as it twists you and turns you through 2600 feet of steel track." Of course, on all of these shows, the narrators always have a slightly low voice and try to sound scarry. Man, I wish i wasnt an insomniac. Rob "Cant fall asleep" D Disclamer: All quotes above have been pulled out of my ass. Saying that, the information may not be accurate. Like, who really cares where Vekoma is from????
  13. You know the PETA really stands for "People Eating Tasty Animals" right? At least they arent possessed, or held hostage before they are eatin. Mmmmmm I could really go for some nice cow and pig on a bun sandwhich right about now, with beautifuly melted cheese, and sauteed mushrooms, and oh, i think i need a new pair of pants. Rob "Spent 3.5 hours lying in bed and cant fall asleep so board out of his mind" D
  14. The same guy who came up with the phrase "Speech Impedament" Why do you drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?
  15. Im 22, and actually quite surprised at how much the little ones out number us... I figured there would be a lot more people in the 18-25 range than the 11-16 range. Oh well. My first coaster was Thunderbolt at Riverside, which is now SFNE. But the coaster that got me hooked was the Mind Eraser, and SLC at SFNE. I know, gasp! It was actually quite smooth to what i remember. But ever since that coaster, I rode anything. Rob
  16. Six Flags posted a couple new pictures from the top of the tophat. I want that guy's job!!! That looks like so much fun. Maybe a work out, but fun non-the least. Here are the links. http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/images/golden_kingdom/108.jpg http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/images/golden_kingdom/109.jpg http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/images/golden_kingdom/110.jpg Rob
  17. I dont buy it either. Its deffinatly not very practical. However, what is this date that you are talking about? They all seem to be good to me... Rob
  18. OMG!!! Thats soooo terrible i couldnt help but laugh!!! I feel like such a dick!!!! Rob
  19. No of all the things said in this topic, i think that that was by far the most morbid... However, to comment on what real said, some people just cant let go of their loved ones. There is nothing wrong with them, but they probably had hope that someday she would just wake up and be alright. So, with that said, they probably couldnt handle the grief if they let her die when she had the chance to just wake up. Its an attachment thing... Can't blame them. I think its sad that it turned into this huge fight between the people that loved her. Oh well, its life, shit happens and then you die. Rob
  20. I have a phone interview for an intership today. I am really nervous about it. So, I have been acting all sorts of weird, and have been running arround like a chicken with its head cut off. But you are all my peeps, so i too the time to give you all a holla!!!! Rob "F%CK!!!" D
  21. The Who: Tommy That thing disserves to played straight through... Its great... Rob "Welcome to tommy's holiday camp" D
  22. Um, i live a very sheltered life. Who the hell was this woman? I keep hearing all this hoopla about her. And i keep hearing the name, but who the hell was she??? Man!
  23. He He, dont worry about it. Im just a very sarcastic person, and was being a dick. Besides, i will get the chance to go to cedar point later this summer. Only then, can i concider myself an integral part of the coaster community... Ha ha... The good thing about it is that I will be able to compare TTD to KK, rather than compare KK to TTD. Make sense? Rob "I really need to shave" D
  24. Well, take the proof and divide by 2. That gives you the alcohol percentage. So 100 proof is really 50% alcohol by volume. And 151 is 75.5 percent alchohol by volume. Correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure that is how it goes.... Rob "not a drinker but Dr Pepper and 151 go very well together" D Ken beat me to it....
  25. -Where do/did you go to college? Well, when I graduated High School, I worked 2 jobs and went to a community college part time. I then went to a University of Connecticut regional campus for a year before I transfered to Worcester Polytechnic Institute, where I am now. -What are/did you studying/study? I am currently studying Mechanical Engineering with a Concentration in Aerospace Engineering. In short, Rocket Science! -What made you go there? Both Robert Goddard and my Grandfather went to school here. And working in a warehouse really SUCKS ASS!!!! I needed to do something with my life. Unfortunatly, it took me two different colleges to get my grades up enough from high school before i could go here. Rob "Do well in school the first time so you dont have to take the long way to your dreams like me" D
