This thing looks flippin' amazing! I'm a sucker for theming, and those rock caves and tunnels are really doing it for me!

Looks like this place is shaping up to be Little Amerricka: Part Deux. Well, plus the giant two sided movie screen, and minus the cute little Meteor.

Oh yeah... I forgot to comment on the hotel thing. BE CAREFUL! I stayed at a hotel that was right across the street and it was the filthiest place I have ever seen. Besides being filthy and way outdated, there was blood on the walls. Enough said. Unfortunately I can not remember the name of the place. I tried to look on Expedia where I booked the room, but it didn't do any good.

While I can't forecast the future, I can tell you that I was there last year for opening day and all of the coasters were open. I jumped the gun and bought a Gold Flash Pass and there ended up being absolutely no lines all day. I think the longest line that I had was maybe like 15 minutes, and that was due to some mechanical stuff on Superman. Good luck! I hope everything works out for you. I really like SFOG & Goliath is one of my favorite steel coasters. Mindbender is is super good as well!

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY, BIG MIKE! Thanks for all the fun and entertainment that you brought in 2008 and are continuing to bring in 2009. You sparked my use on TPR. Even though I have been a member for years and read all the threads, I never posted till the BMRS came along. You also inspired my first Trip Report. A Photo:TR non the less! I'm really looking forward to the continuation of the Big Mike Road Show, and I'm even more excited to hopefully meet you and share some coaster riding with you somewhere this year! As always, safe travels! Brian

I sent a caption too! Is the "new" Mr. Six an actual old man, or is it someone who has spent some time in the costume department? I'm hoping for the second option, cause he's lookin' a bit creepy!

^ Ahhh... I'll have to keep an eye out for that next time. That would make sense. Thanks!

I'm just curious, as I have seen this happen with other polls on this site. How come it says you can vote for "up to" 3 of your favorites, which means you can vote for 1 or 2 if you wish, which I had originally planned. But when I only vote for 1 or 2, it wont let me see the voting results, so I had to add another vote in there to be able to view the results. Is this only happening to me, or is this just they way the polls work?

Is it "Last House on Dead End Street", or "The Gazebo"? Crosses Fingers!

I'm loving this Robb! I haven't found any problems. Hopefully there are no more problems to be found. I just uploaded a .wmv file and besides it taking like 25 minutes to upload, everything worked fine. I'm guessing it took so long because I am connected through a wireless connection that I have no idea where it's coming from and the signal is pretty weak.

Awesome update once again Big Mike! I've been an ACE member for years and I have still never attended an ACE event. P.S. I wanna see the Angel interview and photo happen!

I won a ticket too! HOORAYYYY!!! Now I just need to find someone to head down there with.

I sent you a friend request as well, Big Mike. I actually just started getting into my Facebook. I'm more of a MySpace kind of guy!

HOORAYYYYY!!!

Electerik, you wouldn't happen to have a hi-res version of that photo would you? I'd love to use that for a desktop background. It's an awesome picture!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, BIG MIKE! Hope you had an amazing birthday! (I've been having a surprisingly busy winter, and haven't been on as much as usual.) I loved the past few updates, and that Q&A with the TPR Donkey was amazing! I do believe that I remember seeing a few of the Donkey's relatives spreading the hate throughout the thread. Asses!

Even though I was out of the Ducky Contest running's a few games back, I still like to play along. That last ducky that was in the birds mouth totally slipped by me. Congratulations Team Thriller & traincrossin!

Here are 3 of my tattoos. I have 7 total. These are my 3 newest. All we're custom drawn and tattooed by Chris Hornus @ Evolution Tattoo in Swartz Creek, MI. Enjoy! P.S. If you steal them, I will hunt you down and skin them off of you! I got this one on December 18th, 2008. It's a memorial tattoo for my Dad that passed away last year. December 18th was the year anniversary of his passing. I got this one on February 8th, 2008 I got this one on September 24th, 2005

MF trains to me, seem WAY more roomy than any PTC train that I have ever been on. Just watch out for the lap bar stapling you in more and more throughout the duration of the ride. MF trains are my favorite of any of the trains out there (Of the trains that I have been on). I think they look amazing, and are very, very comfortable! Congratulations on your weight loss, and Happy Holidays to you as well! Maybe I'll see you at Holliwood Nights next year.

Amazing as usual, Natalie! You take some of the prettiest pictures that I've ever seen, and as everyone else has said, your captions are super fun to read. I'm looking forward to the rest of your TR. P.S. I'm VERY jealous that you we're there for Thanksgiving. I had a terrible Thanksgiving. I would have much rather been there wandering around the Disney parks!

DAMMIT BIG MIKE! I get more and more jealous with each update that you post! You're livin' the life, man. For real. Thanks for sharing all of this with everyone. I thoroughly enjoy every bit of it. Especially the Katie Holmes photo (She is SOOO damn cute!), and the exclusive shot of the hot, yet wet babe through the glass that was above you a few updates back! Are there any photos of the 2 hot underwear daughters? Inquiring minds want to know. As always, I'm looking forward to the next update! Brian (Jealous Of Big Mike) Raymond

Everything is workin' good for me!

^ I'm assuming you're talking about Milli Vanilli?

Nice TR! I love all of the Florida parks. Well, the 4 that I have been to anyway. Your apartment looks super nice. If you don't mind, would you share how much you pay for rent (or other fees) to live there? I plan on moving to Orlando within the next few years and I've been curious about prices. I actually found an apartment complex not too far off of I-Drive that rents for a pretty decent price.

Besides taking a while to download (which is my service providers fault), everything worked fine for me. I'm using Windows Vista with Mozilla Firefox. Thanks again for this download Robb! Even though I have all of the Coaster Expedition DVD's, as well as both RAW DVD's, I'm still pumped to be able to put this on my iPod.
