In PT:E, during banter about NLL wanting a spot in the show, Maestro tells him something to the affect of "You should never have volunteered for Houdelini's 'sawing an usher in half trick.'"

What makes International Street have more ambience: the fountain pedestals and gas lamps. Redo the pavers so there is a (flat) delineation between sidewalk, curb and street (no black pavers, though, to hold on heat.) get rid of the grass around the tower and do lush landscape. Flower baskets galore in the entire area.

I've said it to others on KIC, but I typically place a smiley face after ... forgot this time. I've been critical of the park before and will continue to, but will give credit when it's warranted. I don't have much to say currently because I only went once last year and none so far this year.

It was said in jest, Don.

You sound bitter.

This is from the drone person. He is not looking for pyrotechnics people, but drone specific. This would be akin to seeing a job posting for a clarinetist in a musical, but seeing no mention of a Hilda Bovine in said ad. The fireworks could be cut. They could erect a second observation tower beside the original. But in both scenarios, the chances are low.

I was curious, so I googled this expression, which lead me to Wikipedia. It's pretty fascinating! "The phrase is thought to come from Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia, regarding the discovery of a recipe written by the Pontic king Mithridates to make someone immune to poison.[2] One of the ingredients in the recipe was a grain of salt. Threats involving poison were thus to be taken "with a grain of salt", and therefore less seriously. The phrase cum grano salis ("with a grain of salt") is not what Pliny wrote. Pliny's actual words were addito salis grano ("after having added a grain of salt"). The Latin word sal (salis is the genitive) means both "salt" and "wit", thus the Latin phrase cum grano salis could be translated to either "with a grain of salt" or "with a grain of wit", actually to "with caution"/cautiously.[3] The phrase is typically said "with a pinch of salt" in British English and said "with a grain of salt" in American English.[4]" Source: Wikipedia lol

As usual you are correct. I want the park to do well. But, after 2022, I don't think there was anywhere to go but down. I live 3 hours away, and when I go for the day, it's a commitment. But several times in 2024, I left after 3-4 hours because I was bored. I took last year off thinking it would renew my passion for the park. I returned for one day of the bonus weekend after I bought a 2026 pass and it was the same feeling, but at least had some KI friends to commiserate with. Had no push to go back for WinterFest either. Hopefully PT:ON will reignite the fire. I don't know what the answer is, but 3 others didn't buy passes last year because they only visit with me. If enough people grow bored with the park, it will do damage. But I think the "we buy passes every year" regardless of what happens crowd will always keep the attendance up.

Maybe the eyes outside on the facade are watching you

I guess I'm the lone dissenter...I really enjoyed the Pickin' On covers and listen to the Spotify playlist often.

Yes.

Will reserve judgement until I go to the park, but looking at the facade, my mind goes to the turrets(?) are now part of Maestro's pipe organ.

Ok boomer.

Not a fan of the mini shows. I much prefer season long shows, preferably with a two year run.

I'm sure someone does.... ( A throwback to The Interpreter)
