The Interpreter

Be careful what you wish for. Son of Beast was different...

JCG: OTR -- Old Time Radio. Sad indeed.

After six hours of mediation, deadline to file reorganization plans extended to March 31: http://www.goerie.com/deadlines-extended-in-conneaut-lake-park-bankruptcy

Far more fun to leave wide open clues in the middle of a bunch of falderal. I seem to remember reading about Banshee, and even its name, here, about 18 months prior to ita unveiling. And I hear stories of a restaurant visit post closing day years ago when a group of thoosies was openly told that Top Thrill Dragster was going to be topped by 36 feet and 8 miles an hour by a park in Jersey. They laughed derisively. And then... --Blue's Clues, doggedly doing his thing, full...of sound....and Fury, signifying (signal lost)..."All the gold...in California...is in a bank in the middle of Sam Fram's Disco?"

Welcome to KIC!

An interesting question. Though many refer to it as The Beast, and maps typically do, I've often just called it Beast, as did the late Ruth Voss, who dearly loved it, said it relieved her arthritis, and started the ACE walkbacks. Think of a beloved family pet named by a tot, Dog. Dog is both Dog and The Dog. I see Beast like that. Beast is both Beast and The Beast--as in a near reverential awe for its Beastdom and Beastness.

The Xtreme Skyflyer harness is VERY snug. Riders MUST lock arms on the way up. Single riders are allowed, however.

Xtreme Skyflyer has what amounts to a straight jacket. It feels like you are lying stomach down in a hammock, jerked up foot by foot by a cable attached above your rear end! (This after having the cable attached while standing, then falling face forward, supported in a raisable bucket--which then drops out of the way). The eath gets smaller and smaller, you get higher and higher. Then when told to fly, s/he with the ripcord pulls it, you freefall to earth until the cable is taut, then swing back and forth. Eventually, a ride op raises a loop you grab, you come to a stop and descend back to the bucket from whence you came. The straight jacket is removed and you exit the ride--the park hopes you buy a video!

@Logan: If you think a major attraction can be planned, designed and contracted with only two people knowing about it... See also NDA...

See also "diversion."

And I'm just saying as one involved with such things on a daily basis, that is NOT how construction contracts work. Not even close.

I'd just prefer it not to be so dark that candles would be an improvement!

Uh huh. So please explain Knott's Berry Farm from your way of thinking... https://mobile.twitter.com/westcoasternet/status/661631704310812672

Or is it chaos at Michigan's Adventure?

...we....we...contract up? Terp, who learns the darnest things here.

^ Quite the Millennium Force!

...and the "service" they provide.

Huh again! 2009 - 1972 = 37 37th anniversary. NOT 39.

We got Diamondback for our 39th anniversary.... Huh? Confused Terp

^ Jeff Seibert, is that you? (also needs to mention Universal and the MidWest!)

KI once had nature trails. They were, in fact, removed largely for the reasons you cited.

...doesn't seem very defiant to me!

Yeah. For Orlando. Nexxxxt?

But...there is virtually no competition between FUN and Flags....nor even among their suppliers for their business: Southern California. Sort of. That's it.
