^I am still amazed when a long time member still asks a question where they risk getting one of The Interpreter's patented "Yes" answers. I think the closest I can come up without The Interpreter being able to do that is something like this: I really would love to see a photo of the tank boats that used to shoot tennis balls...if someone has a photo I would appreciate it very much if they would post it!

^It is a good one....thanks!

Well, if anyone ever starts a "You know you're a Trekkie" thread we know who will be posting in it!

We are at $4.29 a gallon as of yesterday in my town.

^There is a link to the site where I found it right under the picture.

Or maybe a countdown until the off season! I ran across this photo and thought it was nice: (It's from this website: Louis Wasserman )

^Even if they are turned on most of the time it still boggles my mind why only most of the time? Can the park really assess the days they expect someone to try and bring in a weapon? If they are concerned enough to have them why do they choose to throw caution in the wind on such days as opening day? I must have missed the memo that "nutcases" avoid opening days due to the larger crowds. Just 2 days ago we had a shooting in the foodcourt of one of our local malls...and believe me, it is a nice mall.

Very nice pictures...and i'm glad I finally got to see a picture of the evac! (Lucky dogs!) Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the report...it was a very fun read!

At least you realize it was meant as a joke. I knew when I posted it I was risking offending someone...sorry. I do have sympathy for the homeless people who have no choice in the matter...at tax time every year I only donate money to 3 causes, helping the homeless, conserving wildlife and fighting child abuse. Once again...I am sorry that I offended you.

biff, I will add my welcome! I am glad that you both had a good time...thanks for sharing!

A nerdy thing to most "normal" people...but I think this kind of stuff is fun!

Thanks for taking the time to write up such a long trip report. It sounds like you had a good time. I wouldn't have guessed that White water canyon would be open so early in the year. Also thanks for showing the WindSeeker cup!

A very well written report. Thanks for sharing!

Your Beast picture while you were standing in line IS nice! Thanks for sharing...and the captions were fun!

Not even kidding...I wouldn't have thought that was possible.

I am SO jealous...I have never been lucky enough to be evacuated! (I hope someone will be posting photos later.)

And that comment is scarier than any haunt at haunt!

^ Boy, that is one nice post. There is nothing I can say that could come close to say how I feel after reading it. You paint such a nice quaint picture of Holiday World it makes jealous. I would hope not only that your post remains, but some of the higher ups at the park see it. It is a well written post that should be taken seriously. Thank you for taking the time to write it. P.S. I saved a copy in case it is deleted.

When a long time member of this site makes a statement like this it makes me sad. I say this because I trust your opinion and I wonder what it is that Holiday World is doing that much better to make you feel that way...I hate to see the park I love being surpassed. In the end though I hope it makes Kings Island try harder. (I really have to make it to Holiday World!)

I'm sorry to hear the so many things aren't running...but even so it could be worse. You could be at work like me! Have a great day...and send us a Crypt report soon!

Ride Warrior!!!!! And think of the backed up lines at the gate due to the extra time to search those shopping carts...this is not one of Ryan's better ideas.

But are most of truly qualified to rate the improvements? Another one of those sayings i've never quite understood!

Hendrick, thanks for posting those!

^I saw The Razor's Edge tour...the Thunderstruck opening will always be one of my more memorable concert events! I would love for this to be true...but i'm not sure if it is. Years ago on this site a poster who claimed to have been there said that one of the new owners chucked about everything that wasn't nailed down when they took over.
