Wow. After looking at those pics and hearing about the amenities, it would be at least $2500 a night, and chances are even more. That would be a chance of a lifetime to the Disney fanatic. After reading the article, I though it may be a bit spooky to be the only ones staying in the castle, but after reading her TR, that is obviously not the case.

^ Is that car really pink? And speaking of gas prices, it just jumped to $3.21 on Wednesday night. In a election year no less. uugh...

It's not that it is off the beaten path, only because it is located a few miles off I-79. But more because the area it is in is economically depressed. The Meadville/ Conneaut Lake area was considered the Tool Capital of the World at one time. But now with China leading the way with cheap metal and cheap labor, many tooling jobs have gone to China. China has taken so many tooling jobs from Northwest PA, everyone is moving down South where experianced toolmakers are hard to come by, and pay about $10 to $15 more an hour than here. The best way of describing CLP is comparing it to GL, but without the financial backing. People stopped going, so it was difficult for the park to refresh itself with new rides. And competition from Waldameer, Idlewild, Kennywood, etc. basically choked the life out of CLP. The park is in such financial trouble now, the debt it has aquired is almost as much as the park is worth. It really is a sad story, but people really need to move on from this park. There are so many businesses in the area that were dependant on CLP, and for about 10 years now it was always up in the air if the park was going to open. So families kept their business doors open with the hope of CLP surviving, and it has only brought heartbreak. They have put everything on the line for the park, that the area needs to lick it's wounds, and move on and find something else to bring the people in. Miracles do happen, and that is the only thing that is going to save CLP.

^ I think you missed the point. Nobody is buying the Intamin Generation 1 drop rides new or used. The unsold GL rides really had nothing to do with the comment you quoted. But since you brought it up, chances are CF cannot sell RWB and Villian due to the fact that they are not being sold with thier trains as well as they really are not the most enjoyable rides out there. Now why BD cannot be sold, the only thing that I can think of is if parts are too difficult to come by. You can see much discussion about GL's unsold rides here: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=11659

Nobody said that it was off topic, but simply that it was not important. It really is nothing different than just posting to hear yourself talk. But I guess if you look at the glass is half full theory, it was not a one word answer. But you are right, we should all try to be friends.

All that constant clanking would push a hangover to the breaking point. Can you imagine working the ride with a hangover? Ughhh...

If you really want to work at a park, CP has dorm-like living quarters for most of their employees. And in response to Avitar, you owe me a new flat screen for my computer. I broke the other one trying to kill a bug on the screen.

Go to his profile and check out his post history. He brings nothing to the table in the form of any discussion. When he does try to, the comments are way off base. He really is nothing more than a troll.

Does it matter why he wants them?

I suppose only because of the new SoB trains vs. the normal ones for Racer. Unless they are changing The Racer trains for '08... (Which only adds to the new Racer train rumor)

^ You are right. No big rides for '08. I doubt many tourists. More locals than anything.

That speaks volumes.

^ Well I hope you got a raise!

Interp was not saying change the name, he was referring to The Racer has always been intended to be Red-White-and Blue. It has unfortunately been all white for a couple of years now. Added: Here are some examples: http://www.KICentral.com/history/photos/di...um=1&pos=24 http://www.KICentral.com/history/photos/di...um=1&pos=59 http://www.KICentral.com/history/photos/di...um=1&pos=58

^ Welcome! Given CP's past, the removal of DD is to make way for a new ride. Whenever that possible plan is to take effect is when DD will be taken down, sold or not. There is a good chance that CP did take parts from Mr. Hyde's at GL, as well as purchase parts from SF. But they would never release that kind of information to the public.

That could be the exact reason (along with revenue) to sell the park out to a company. Chances are the park will not be at capacity, which will make it easier for the "greenhorns".

^ What is the packet for/ contain?

We don't know that yet. And even if there was nothing new at the park for 2008, would it really matter?

^^^^ CP opened on Sundays for many years. Saturdays were sold to Longaberger Baskets. So the official opening day was always Sunday. This created many issues with some of the new ride seats that were put up for auction by the American Red Cross as "Be the First to Ride." Longaberger has since not bought out CP's first day for a couple of years now. Weather or not it was because of the auction issue, I am unsure.

^ It's all right kid, we know the truth. Everyone makes mistakes. Funny how you now added "don't" as well. Why not add the comma as well after likely, it will make even more sense then. So it will read: I don't think it's likely, I think HH will be a separate charge in 2008. Note on that back of your season pass it says not valid for FearFest, obviously they were printed up before they changed the name to HH. As opposed to your original post: I think it's likely HH will be a separate charge in 2008. Note on that back of your season pass it says not valid for FearFest, obviously they were printed up before they changed the name to HH. Now add those to your other post: And now your point is clear as mud. And I'll let this speak for itself after another did the same thing:

Nice edit to your original post! Adding the "I think" was a nice touch! And I'm supposed to re-read?

Huh? So it's not likely that there will be an upcharge. But they will be what?

I was going to suggest another Looney Toon, Pepe Lepu. But we already had a womanizer in the White House. (and I'm a big Clinton fan! It's just funny!)
