Yeah, I thought it was nick the treasure too...

Wow... you have no life. Of course, I knew you would memorize it when you memorized FoF's preshow too! lol

No kidding! Nick worked at PKI and my cousin lives in the house he grew up in.

I saw Nick and Jessica eating at Skyline Patio while I was working Tiques that day. I never did see that episode though...

Welcome back to the forums! Yeah, a loud screech is prolly oil. I've heard it as it came into the station one time last year, really obnoxious.

Yes, that is a classic. "Canada's like 'What's going on, eh?'"

... CRAP! We already got another member! Oh well, it was cool while it lasted. I wish I took a screenshot...

Yeah, she was promoted to sup pretty recently. She worked FX Theater last year.

Oops, I could've swore I saw the Miami guy on the commercial, oh well.

Until we get a new member, PKIU will be possessed. Yes, PKIU has 666 members! Of course, if we do get a new member, it will be well... yet another new member. That has it's pros, but of course, it has the makings of a disaster. Just thought I'd point this out.

I gotta give the vote to my old crew. Nikki and Katy are awesome, but you left Tiffany out of the list! My vote is for all three. Man, I do miss FoF...

I just saw a commercial for CSI: Miami for thursday, and while it doesn't feature PKI, it is about a rollercoaster ride gone wrong.

Yes, it was a shuttle loop. It may look boring now, but it was big when it opened.

Bat: Vortex Demon: Congo Falls Beetle: Somewhere in Oktoberfest (I think...)

Sound effects - yes Fog - no

Um... what fog?

Yes, Vortex is loud, I noticed FoF myself at my quick trip to the park sunday. The Beast lift is louder though, I mean you can barely hear the music while it is running, but when it's off, you can hear it by eagles!

WTF w/ the last 2. I know it's gotten alot of smack, but I still gotta say Top Gun. I know it's not going any time soon, but I just can't stand that ride unless I sit front seat.

It's not getting rougher, you just forget how rough Beast can be during the winter, so it seems to be rougher. That's why it seems like DZ is getting taller each year to me, because I keep forgetting how big it is! And the brakes in the middle of the ride haven't changed the speed, it's just that the brakes they put in some years ago slow the train quicker.

Since theater took out almost all of my weekend, I wasn't sure if I would be able to make it to PKI this weekend. Well, after a party for closing night for the show, I come home at around 9:30 AM, shower, eat breakfast, then of course, head out to PKI. I didn't have to be at XU until 2, and I live just 15 minutes away from the park, so I was able to do it. I started off walking past TRTR and see it closed. I continue on the path to Beast for ride #17 of the year, which was in the front seat. I get some comments about if I was cold, because I had a tee shirt on. I then say hi to more of my crew at Eagles, and get some more "aren't you cold?" comments. 2 cycles, some great snaps. Those were my 8th and 9th flights on them this year. I see that Vortex is closed, so I go over to SBSP3D. This was my 1st ride on it this year, and I had forgotten how annoying people can get when they watch the preshow. I mean, college people!!! Anyways, the ride was it's usual lame and somewhat boring self. Still have sound issues with not being able to hear words at some points. As I am walking out of the building, the exit door to side B is open and I see a ride op in there. Maybe side B is gonna open soon, but who knows. A quick stroll down coney and I see that FoF actually has a line! It's like 40 minutes!!! All of the other rides were walk-ons, but people and their precious heat made it packed. I then ride Monster, but they were only loading one arm because there was no line, so I couldn't spin while the arms stopped moving. I have some lunch, ride AE, then go home. Some other highlights to the day, a kid was walking down IS when he saw Vortex over the trees. He yells, "Look! It's Beast!" I knew it had to be Vortex he was looking at because you can't see Beast from that spot! Second funny thing is while in line for front seat of Beast (1 train wait), some people were confusing SoB with Vortex. Remember, this was on Beast! Also, a thumbs down for the festhaus. BOTH token machines were out of service, so to play DDR one would have to go back to Coney arcade (closest arcade), get tokens there, then walk back to Festhaus! Whats up with that! You have a DDR machine now! Tokens are gonna fly out of those machines, they need to refill them much more!

I don't think I've ever heard the "happy happy fun fun song" (a nickname my old crew gave a song) in AZ. Of course, I am rarely in AZ, so that could be why.

Why are OC and AZ grouped together? That makes no sense whatsoever to group them together.

And now... the birthday durge! (Sung like a monk) Happy birthday, have a happy birthday. Have a happy birthday!

Why do I have the feeling Domi isn't a n00b, and is just posting under a different sn?

Here comes a third Beast/Eagles ride op to say thanks for the good GR's. Most guests do not know about guest relations and how much it meant to get a good GR (I didn't before I was a ride op).
