I wish new rides would come soon
CP has always been good for the family. You need to check things again. CP has three different areas for kids rides. They also have a rather large assortment of family rides. More than most parks. In comparison: CP has 51 rides that are not coasters. KI has 34 rides that are not coasters. SFGAd has 48 rides that are not coasters.

Oil Today Closed at $101.01
I was expecting to find both of my cars on the list. 2001 Grand Cherokee Ltd. (V8) and 2003 Audi A6 (3.0). Neither are what you could say are easy on the environment or pocket book.

SFNE Dark Knight Construction HALTED
Even though comments like this need to be said by media/ human relation type people, the first thing that came to my mind was the SFKK incident.

Star Wars or Star Trek at KI?
How could I possibly screw that one up? That's what I get for having coasters on the mind!
-
Star Wars or Star Trek at KI?
Star Wars by far, even with Jar-Jar. Those Kenner toys in the 80's were the best. I still have a Millenium Force, AT-AT, Death Star, Snow Speeder (my favorite), X-Wing... ah the list goes on.... Trekkies are just a bunch of freaks.

Passes
^ Yeah, that is quite possible. Meijer's could have ended the deal because they could not justify selling the passes anymore. Are they selling day passes?
-
Passes
Apparently, KI is depending more on walk-up sales and online sales. Unless Meijer's was getting too big of a cut. I'm sure they were not selling passes for KI out of the goodness of their heart.

Passes
^ Is it just your local Meijers, or chainwide?

San Fran: Escaped Zoo Tiger Kills 1; Injures 2
It is great that they added so many safety measures. Yet, I would have thought there would have been cameras already around the zoo.

Looks as if SF did not apply enough grease to some politician's hand.

Mallory: Free Metro rides to link teens, Kings Island jobs
I'm thinking more long term, like how much money will this save the bus system over the next 30 years if done correctly. Only 1/3 of Go Metro's revenue come from actual riders. The rest comes from local, state, and federal tax revenue.

^ Actually that is some pretty intresting information. And in all reality, $2.6 billion is a ton of cash, but with today's gas prices combined with greenhouse gasses created from automoblie exhaust, it really is not all that much.
