Captain Picard

I think most had time to see the tweetybird post before delete. knowing what to post comes with experience and if you think you have something you need to tell there is ways of going about it. There are other forums you can post your info on. You don't have to post only to this one. I had time long ago on a KI fan site that didn't like what some of us was talking about so we went to a different site. We had a good time then as the ones that didn't like it could only watch and wish they had a delete button. I don't think one needs to take it personally when you get deleted. Just have a Coke and a smile and move on.

It seems some miss the days when things was Paramount.

Well there you have it. KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst are also weather forecasters. Thats the thing with the weather nobody really knows.

Well nobody really knows 100% but you can come up with a high probability of an outcome.

Anyone going to HHN and thinking about getting a ride on Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit with the Express Pass is in for a surprise. After you pay for your Express you will see that it's not valid for Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit.

I remember it was fun up to around 2003-2004. I probably haven't been on it 4 times after that. I gave the new trains a try and have not got back on it.

Maybe to protect it from getting something on it in the shop.

The following phrase comes to mind: Those who know don't talk. And those who talk don't know. Yes, thats why the name of the new ride at KD was on some of the forums weeks before the announcement.

I thought it was boring too. It's one of the most uneventful rides I have been on.

I will be on it in October if it's open.

I remember Paramount Parks did a test run of their own forums one time. I think you know how that went.

It could be that they are waiting to see where they stand financially at the end of the season. I don't think doing anything with SOB would have been in their plans.

It's not the track, it's the support structure. This is where the problem is and there is no easy fix. I would guess that it cost too much to fix the structure and is why they have tried getting by with different trains. IMO there has been more money wasted trying to patch it up than it would have cost to fix it right the first time.

It was around 4 days for email confirming registration. You might want to check your junk folder and see if it's in there. That is if you marked that you wanted to email confirm your registration. As for going or not, I think you need to show your support when invited or you may not get invited in the future. I think a post back at the start was saying that the park didn't think enough would show for a KIC event. I could be wrong but thats the way it sounded to me.

What do you think the forces are when it slams into the final brake?

Thinking new trains will fix it is about the same as thinking a new car will fix a hole in the road.

I can't remember waiting more than 15-20 minutes for anything when I was there. It was always like an average day at KI to me. My trips was always in May and October.

I think thats the problem. When you have to take it down to the ground and start over you have to wonder if it's worth it.

I bet they would be happy to build a new coaster for the park. Coming in to fix someones mistake is a different story. The rumor was they took the used trains and made them work on SOB because no one wanted anything to do with it.

If you had a coaster company would you want your company name on it? Why not, it would show how they could completely turn a coaster around to have top notch safety and provide better thrills. What if it didn't work out that way?

If you had a coaster company would you want your company name on it?

I agree that debt appears steady. The cash will be flowing into it for the next 100 years. It makes sense when you read the part at the bottom that says Disclosure: Author is long FUN units.

I am not sure I'd say that, given the loan news came out before the market even opened today. But, predicting the market on a day to day basis is next to impossible. Today's close: 4:03pm ET: 10.63 0.27 ( down 2.48%) 9:30AM ET: 10.92 0.29 (2.73%) Cedar Fair LP Captain takes profits and takes the rest of the day off.
