tnguy Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Ah yes the dinosaur jungle boat ride. Possibly the most random attraction ever. You described in perfectly.
cfc Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 ^^You're lucky. Some people have to have a wazooectomy for dino infestations.
ThatFalafelGirl Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 ^ that's very true. luckily, it was only plant eaters and very small carnivores, no need for a Wazooectomy. And now, because i know you're All DYING to hear more about the 1934 Womens College of Delaware year book, or at the very least might find it more interesting than toe flossing, before i retire for the night i shall transcribe the bio of the young miss Lois Phelps, who, you'll be keen to know, majored in Home Economics! perhaps she got to tend the Baby drawer! "Lois, one of our merriest girls, and one of our tiniest, is friendly and dependable. She never takes anything too seriously, but acquits her tasks faithfully and well. Down in the commuters' room she is one of the greatest talkers and gigglers, in the arts of which she is particularly skilled. She has her own peculiar way about them too. Ask her to pronounce "banana", and you'll see." p.s. Hooray! post 100!
Meteornotes Posted June 15, 2008 Author Posted June 15, 2008 ^See, replace the name "Lois" with "Chirs", and you pretty much have a TPR Trip Biography all written. Just toss in a line about tiaras, and a "FIRE HOT" and you're done! I'm so doing this from now on. Thank you, Delaware Women's College! And remember, only the luckiest girls in the house got to wacth the Baby Drawer... dt
ETapley0687 Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 That was a great TR! Glad you liked Dollywood, thats my "home park" lol. Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg are really great places and it has soooo much to offer! It's Tennessee's Panama City.... minus the beach.... and the dominate younger crowd...... and the weather... lol but its close! You look like you had a great time, but there's way more to do so "yall come back now ya hear?!" lol
cfc Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 That women's college bio reminds of the MST3K episode where they riff on the short about why women should major in home economics (got that on tape or DVD somewhere around here). And Falafel (nee Liz) I glad that you still have an intact wazoo, although being wazoo-less might entitle you to a handicapped-parking permit.
Groteslurf Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Very funny TR. - I will likely say something that will confuse and/or offend you during this report, unless the same random crap that rattles around inside my head all day long as does it in yours I wasn't confused nor offended at any time so ... Seriously, I think you're one of the funniest (if not the funniest) people on this site. You get a little misted at this point. I personally would install water cannons here that would blast people with the force of a fire hose. And shoot bees at them. This is probably one of the many reasons why I'm not allowed to own a park... One of highlights IMO. I LMAO
BarryH Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Great photos! Can we see scans or photos from the old yearbook? I hope Dave and his girlfriend Falafel can make it down to WDW. I can just see the crazy photos now. Don't forget a side trip to Universal, Sea World, Busch Gardens, and the buffet at the Golden Corral.
disneyfan1313 Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 OMG - that trip report was filled with so much goodness! I really do think you need to start an "American Chairlift Enthusiasts" club if only to piss ACE off.
mcjaco Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 And Clever Detective is fine, but I'm thinking Cleaver Detective would be much more entertaining if set loose in Dollywood. (just thought I'd add in another inside joke to the mix ) Keep it up and I'll lock you in my powder room!
Supernatural Anaesthetist Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 ...we didn't see any shows, as neither of us are particularly country music fans, plus I'd personally rather set myself on fire than watch a show or parade at a park, unless it involves explosions and strippers... Best.... Quote...Ever! Great trip report Dave! Very entertaining and funny! Makes me want to plan a trip there myself.
disneygurlz2s Posted June 24, 2008 Posted June 24, 2008 I seriously think Dave and Chuck could go head to head in a "trip report that makes me laugh so hard I nearly pee my pants" throwdown. I will look forward to this as you are both on the European trip. Dave, I love your sense of humor and glad that guys had a great time. I agree that Dollywood (along with Holiday World) are a rare class of theme park outside of Disney. I look forward to going back as it has been 9 years since we were last there. Shari
slither37 Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Great trip report. I do love the T-Shirts. tshirthell.com, presume? I am also glad to see that the bail bondsman and beef jerky industries have caught on to what the beer companies already know.... hot women = sales. Next up are exterminators and undertakers. The quote about parades and shows at parks IS the best quote ever.
ThatFalafelGirl Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 One shirt is from T-shirt Hell. the others are from my private stock kept in a climate controlled walk in cooler kept at precisely 69.2 degrees Fahrenheit in the cellar of a French villa.
jamesdillaman Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 You didn't hit up Davy Crocket's Mini Golf!? I've played the rest of the ones you went to, with the exception of Adventure Golf. And I second that the Funicular up to Hillbilly Golf is almost more fun than the course itself. -James Dillaman
BarryH Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 ^^I don't know why, but I thought of the Batcave from the movie "Batman & Robin" when she mentioned the cooler.
TheRapidsNerd Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 the others are from my private stock kept in a climate controlled walk in cooler kept at precisely 69.2 degrees Fahrenheit in the cellar of a French villa. That was a great line.
TheRapidsNerd Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 DT and Falafel, Thought of you two yesterday while at the local botanical gardens. They have a dinosour exhibit going on you both would enjoy. Kept thinking of Dinosour at AK and, naturally, Jurassic Park. Thanks again for sharing a great trip and Happy 4th to you both.
