^At least someone has a sense of humor around here. ^^Dude, the winking smilie means you are kidding. Guess you didn't figure that one out.

Good luck with that, Chef. Woofer, I've seen the same kind of thing that Bavarian Beetle was talking about. I know one of my college professors had his house burn down and he said it was like pulling teeth trying to get his insurance company to pay up.

And since the Dip-n-Dots guy is here, I think he should spill all of KI's plans for the next three years.

No thanks. I've already seen the hoops you have to jump through just to get what's coming to ya.

December 9th, 2003. Hard to believe it's been that long. I also belonged to PKIU before PKIC and also PKIGuide in 2002.

In turn, insurance companies are normally far more generous and approving than would be required under their policies. In fact, if something is ambiguous in a policy, the company is obligated to find for the insured. Don't always believe the commercials they run during Jerry Springer. Um, no. I don't believe for one second that insurance companies are far more generous than required. If anything, it takes a lot to get them to pay up what they are supposed to. And I didn't get my info from Jerry Springer commercials. That is a simple fact of life then it comes to insurance companies.

Sounds like you had a great time! I'll have to try and remember exit 19 as I love Chinese food.

Thanks! I've never seen that before!

Pretty crazy looking coaster, angryemobeaver! I would ride it!

A friend of my mother told me that when she lived in Sandusky, there are not that many months with nice weather. I would love to get a job at CP or KI in accounting. However, I have no idea of how you would even apply for such a job.

Was that dragon mentioned in reference to Steel Dragon 2000?

I was about to say, Interpreter, do you know something we don't?

Can't remember if these had been posted here before, but I found these pics when someone had linked them from Coasterbuzz. Classic Kings Dominion Pics Thought the old atmosphere of KD really reminds me of the KI of old.

You pose an interesting question. How many of his designs have been altered?

I'd have to disagree. I think that it was very prudent for him to release the layout. He had access to the information and posted it. I think that it was further proof that Screamscape is a valuable source of information for park enthusiasts. When you take several shots at several fish in the proverbial barrel, you tend to hit one now and again. IMO, it barely raises his credibility, if there was any to begin with.

That's funny. I see one or two good names and a bunch of terrible names suggested. Not saying I could do better, but, a lot of these suggestions I'm reading are much more lame than what CF came up with.

I do agree about the confidence thing though. I'm sure parks would like to just throw ideas out there to get reactions. My only problem with that being that I would think the majority of readers of that site would be coaster enthusiasts...meaning they are not in the majority. Unless I'm wrong about who his readers are.

You think he was smart in releasing the layout of Maverick before CP made the announcement? They were pretty upset from what I understand.

In a word...no. There is a reason those who may know things do....it's called keeping things in confidence and having credibility. Keep your enthusiasm, though! Too bad Lance from Screamscape doesn't know a whole lot about credibility or keeping things in confidence.

I was thinking virtually everyone in the chain had Halloween Haunt. Apparently, I was wrong.

Just hope they don't cut in front of this woman.

I guess this will bring Dorney in line with the rest of the chain as far as Halloween events go.

I think this is very interesting. Has anything been done like this before? I mean, at an amusement park?

So Nemo, what exactly happened at GWL? I must have missed that.

It said in the 2nd article you posted that it could be fatal to diabetic children as it may dehydrate them quicker. As they say, "There must be something in the water."
