Big Mike

I have to try some of that Dole whip next time. Hi Chrissie! Peace, Big Mike

It is so awesome to see that you two are still going strong dating way back to the UK trip It was nice to see all the cool friends you run into when you visit Florida. Nicole's hair is not as fluffy as I remembered it Derek, is there an after party tomorrow that you will be attending? Peace, Big Mike

Good idea Pal! I got a Cedar Fair Platinum pass this year, so I will hit up Kings Dominion for some left over credits too! Your Pal, Big Mike

Yep, thats the one Chuck, somehow I was not prepared when I went to Virginia Beach and completely missed it. I usually have every coaster within a couple states that I need, and I miss one in the same town??? Thats what happens when you bring a woman with you, messes up the priorities like meeting your friend chuck and riding coasters Been on that one yet Chuck? Guy- You know me well. Peace, Big Mike

Nah, that coney beach ride now counts as a credit since I did actually "ride" it for a bit, the Road Runner stays on the unridden list still! Peace, Big Mike

A free lunch from Chuck next time I visit the Burg > no free lunch in Tampa! Plus, somehow I missed a credit in Virginia Beach last year??? Was this coaster there last year Chuck??? I cant see me being THAT stupid as to having rode the whole Virginia Beach boardwalk on bikes and missing a coaster?? Peace, Big Mike

Aurora, I did that same walk of shame only once last year, on the Road Runner coaster at Great Escape. First I had to find a kid to ride with me. I finally found a volunteer and I get in with him and couldn't get that damn lap bar closed. I, having no shame at all, was only "slightly" embarrassed. I am sure if that mean, rude, and degrading Larrygator was there, he would have been making fun and insulting me. I will be back up there again this year after losing more weight and I will keep you informed and updated! Don't let the Larry's of the world keep you from riding the Hulk!!! Peace, Big Mike

Thank you very much Kerry. It is nice to have pleasant people like you give us hope while other people like LarryGator make fun of the fat people, how rude! Hopefully see you at a few stops on the East Coast trip! Peace, Big Mike

For the record - it is 12 pounds lost in 2 1/2 months! A Great Job! Peace, Big Mike

See Matt, that is where you are wrong. I asked that there be no congrats, just bribes and donations if I made my goal So far, 18 very cool people have donated a wide variety of great incentives! Still a long way to go Beemer. Peace, Big Mike PS - Wonder how much I could get if I put my thread on the main board??

Damn, if this does not have Big Mike written all over it, I don't know what does??? I can't find the comments button that the letter states to write to? I am sure it doesn't hurt that I already started my weight loss thread on TPR 2 months ago to go from 262 pounds to 230 pounds just to fit into the coasters on the upcoming Europe trip, as well as never having the good fortune to ride the Voyage yet!! Plus, with my wacky, crazy, friendly attitude.... I have got to be the lock for this show Elissa, please pass along my thread to Paula and we can all have a TPR representative for this very cool idea of a show! Now I need to find out how to enter this thing lol. Update - Damn, just figured out this is from Jan 2006, not 2008 I could have been a celebrity lol. Fame and I just keep missing each other. Peace, Big Mike

Hey Colin, Great to see you had a fantastic time! Thanks for the TR. See you down the road again one day. Peace, Big Mike

Hey Chuck, Hope you are feeling totally better soon! I saw some credits that I still need to get on your report!!! October I clean up in California! Great TR and all the best buddy. Peace, Big Mike

Elissa, I am up for a TPR cruise, this last one was just too last minute for me. Can you set a date for early 2009 and I will set a vacation week away just for the cruise. If thats possible, I am 100% there. Peace, Big Mike PS - Hi Chrissie!

KidTums looked very cute indeed, but didn't Elissa look dazzling too???

Your brighter than me though good buddy. Sorry I did not answer your question too. The canopy tour is like he said, a zip line in the forest, usually going from station to station up in the tree tops. The only Zip line I have done so far was at that amusement park last year on our coaster trip, it was cool. Peace, Big Mike

True Elissa, where are the pics of your Mom?? The Canopy tour is the one tour I am going to do in Nuevo Vallarta! Peace, Big Mike

Can't wait for my Irn-Bru!!! Hi Chrissie. Peace, Big Mike

Seems like yesterday....

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm

What a great Mom and Dad you guys are! What does Kristen want for Christmas? There will be something under the tree for that little cutie-pie from Big Mike. Let me know! Peace, Big Mike

Robb and Elissa, Congratulations on reaching 25,000 registered users to your fantastic website!

Hey Everyone, I don't post much on the boards here in the main forum and decided to add my 2 cents in here. I just wanted to show my appreciation to this site and to Robb and Elissa for I have made many friends from here, gone on some fantastic trips from here, and always enjoy reading interesting posts and watching great videos. This website, which I visit everyday in my daily routine, is responsible for a lot of good times and new friends and places visited overseas which otherwise would have never happened. I thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I will never take for granted this special place and the effect it has had in my life. Robb and Elissa, Thanks, and I love you. Peace, Big Mike
