Interests
Roller coasters, I suppose. Kings Island as well, although my favorite park is Knoebels.
Big fan of psychedelic/progressive rock. The Beatles, Pink Floyd, the Doors, the Beach Boys, the Lovin' Spoonful, Small Faces, Tomorrow, and the Zombies are just a few of my favorite.
I collect vinyl records of the above artists at every opportunity.
I also birdwatch.

Since when is The Racer 'notoriously' rough? -
EPCOT is getting a coaster

Ah, yes, the classic Vekoma flying coaster. The pinnacle of capacity, reliability, and comfort. -
Cinci Zoo Gorilla Death
LordSkippy replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The memes aren't making light of Harambe's death as much as they're mocking the public's response to it, especially on social media, which I don't have a problem with considering the abhorrent amount of insincere virtue signaling the incident caused. These memes, too, will fade, although the Cincinnati Zoo's response has probably added another month plus to their lifespan. -
I rode Loghtning Rod and didn't find it particularly "incredible." Don't get me wrong, it's a solid, enjoyable ride, but as much as I would have liked to have been completely blown away by it, I wasn't - and not just because it gave me a headache. I get that a lot of people really like Lightning Rod, but it's childish to insinuate those who don't either have never ridden it or are trolls.

I rode Lightning Rod last weekend. Gave me a headache. Granted, not one as large as it continues to give the Dollywood maintenance staff, I'm sure, but still.

Mean Streak and The Racer are two entirely different beasts, no pun intended. It's silly to speculate the closing of one indicates the imminent removal of the other.

A friend of mine made a similar image and the presumed coaster fit fine without the flume removed. -

Please, KIC members, I beg you: for the love of all things good in the world, do not spend the next three months incessantly debating the legitimacy of these plans. -

The words "green" and "blue" have one letter in common - e. This is obviously a hint that the new ride will be an "E Ticket" attraction, so to speak. Obviously.
