Yeah... especially if you're doing a journalistic thing up there... if you're writing about something tomorrow, it probably ain't happening....

It's absolutely clear that the age of the ride ops had nothing to do with the accident. Poor training and poor conditions had everything to do with it...

Possible? Certainly. Plausible? That's up for argument...

Meh... I remain cautiously optimistic. I really did like the backwards Racer, so I'm not sure how that will affect me... hate most of the new ride names, but who cares... However I bet the new shows will be really good. I'll all balance out.

So what's the word for it when you're only half way happy? Is it content?

Yes, by about a decade.

If you have text messages available through your service plan there will be no charge to you at all.

Texts are limited to 160 characters, so obviously it won't be my whole multi-tiered posts from the front page. Typically it'll just be a two or three sentence blurb telling what's on the front page when I change it, and immediate updates if important news unfolds. If you haven't gotten any texts yet, that's because I haven't sent any. I'm very committed to this not being a spam service, so I'm not going to do it unless I feel as though it's important. Within the next few weeks, more information will be coming our way from Kings Island about 2008 and that will make the service a lot more relevant. Again, I appreciate the strong response we've been getting for this. Let's make it an instantly informative 2008!!

That's a mobile site (which is another thing we're working on) but I don't see text updates on there. Am I overlooking something?

That figure you quoted is not correct. Not even close.

Nope. Spirit Song will return to Kings Island's Timberwolf Theatre this year. The dates will be July 10, 11, and 12th. Tickets will be available through Ticketmaster. We will let you know when further things are announced such as acts, prices, etc.

Krazy City is actually a lot of fun. Wonderpark is something to do if you're really bored....

Will the 'retheming' be worth waiting for? Or should we just expect a simple name change, like Drop Tower? Some stuff will be added, some stuff will be removed. It may or may not be ready for opening day.

Were you the one that asked about your 08 platinum pass getting you in there? How did that work out for you?

I can't wait for The Crypt.

The Festhaus was show venue up until the mid-90s. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't have originally have a skating rink in the middle? Nonetheless, the stage has been removed. It used to be in front of the big wintery-mural with the 2nd tier behind where the mural is now. If KI is really getting a show or shows in the Festhaus, I'd expect to see a renovation that would make it similar to how it was.

Because they don't have the funds to build enough restrooms for that.

You're just going to have to wait until April 20th, now aren't ya, Hansel?

So what do they do? They pick him up... I hope to god that he didn't have a head or spinal injury.

It's been no secret that Endless Summer on Ice will make its amazing return to Kings Island for the 2008 season, however the statement above is obviously incorrect. Endless Summer will again be in the Kings Island Theatre, while the International Showplace will feature a new and exciting show for 2008.

Let's just say that's not a finalized map.

The map that you're looking at isn't 100% accurate.

I was sent the press release by Bill Mefford, but the header for it was for Warren County, not Cedar Fair.

No, that was based off of a press release that KI sent me.
