Because you're not on fire.

^What kind of camera would you use? I can imagine the old dark ride being bulldozed to the ground and hauled off in heaps of dusty, twisted, multi-colored scrap, razed like a condemned warehouse and replaced with some lush green space, or perhaps a wee flat or two.

I wonder if they'll play that light, jazzy Peanuts-themed music throughout that area of the park, or will "Snoopy" be dancing to classic rock. Anyway, so long, Nick; welcome Peanuts.

Texting's everywhere! This relatively new technology that allows us to communicate with whomever we want--whenever we want--is addictive! I think in five years, everybody will be walking around with their heads down and thumbs a blazin'...

Maybe the technology will improve, and we'll see a re-emergence of suspended coasters one day. Soon, I hope. Hang on to the ones we have left!

It is. Technically, you would be "In Favor", and, depending on the vote versus "All Against", the motion would "Carry". To "Third" a motion is to vote for favorability of the motion. Seconding is the privilege of any board member in attendance, which brings the motion to a vote. Had the motion not been 'seconded', it would have been rejected by default, requiring no vote by the attending body. Therefore, let me join you in raising my hand in favor of the agreement.

That was me. Thanks. And the Search for Snoopy above was me, too. I can't imagine what they're going to come up with, but I think whatever it is will grow on people.

So what would become of Scooby Doo and the Haunted Castle? ? Parody image created in PowerPoint from various sources

A nostalgic return to Hanna Barbera would be nice, too.

The first thing that came to my mind... Seriously, though. I think that, once it's there, people will get used to Planet Snoopy like they got used to Nick-U (although I'm sure there are some who haven't).

It has been an unusually cool summer. There haven't been the typical runs of 90°+ days it seems, unless I just haven't been paying attention.

I find myself almost crying during the Hanna Barbera piece. I miss that ride! This is a great documentary! Thanks x 50000000!

Florence Henderson? Another Brady Bunch reunion, perhaps? You're the only one I know to have a zen ride on the train! Way to go!

Very cool so far. So, which ride are you going to first?

[quoting Terpy] "Scores? A score is twenty. I am quite sure our writer meant hoards or thousands, not twenties. Sigh." [end of quote] To quote Samuel Goldwyn: "It's more than magnificent, it's mediocre!" [edit one week later] Testing...is this thing on? Karate explosion! ... Shortest Interpreter Thread Ever!

I enjoy the feeling of 'driving' the coaster, so I always try for 1-1-left side on any coaster (where the choice is possible).

Whatever happened to the time-honored art of lip synch; or, did their sound crew forget to plug in the monitors? Without post-production, TV bands tend to sound as bad as they really are (unless they get ample practice).

Kings Dominion doesn't have as much urban sprawl inching up on it at the present time.

"Evil Woman" by ELO "Surrender" by Cheap Trick "Workin' Man" by Rush "Round and Round" by Ratt "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Wave "Piece of My Heart" by Janis Joplin "Handle Me With Care" by the Travelling Wilberries "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz "Show Me" by The Pretenders On opening day: "Hey You" by Pink Floyd "Golden Years" by David Bowie "Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive "Take The Long Way Home" by Supertramp "American Woman" by The Guess Who ...and lots more, just can't remember. Don't care to, really, because they really really should play something different on International Street and in NU, but who cares, really. KI doesn't need rock to rock, know'mean, Vern?

Oh, now, Beast is only 30, let's not rush things! Life's too short, you know?

We did this way back before the 08 season... but it's fun (and oh, so cheesy): FOF: "Enclosed: The Ride" (Scream Inside the Box!) bwa ha ha ha, ...uh, no. Son of Beast: "Chiropractophobia!" Drop Tower: "Fall Pole" Diamondback: Ssssslither! (Get it? ssssssssssssssssss... no? Ok.)

Congrats on 500! It will be nice to see some rides in the old Forest Fair/Cincinnati Mills again, if only for a week.

A Ferris wheel and a Tilt-A-Whirl? Alright! I love those rides.

..oh, yes. And they're renaming The Beast "Furball Box!"

Great, vintage stuff, striker, and yes, Zodiac could at times be an instrument of torture! Were the boats in Oktoberfest's pond called "Scooby's Schooners" or were those someplace else in the park?
