*sigh* it has NOT been a good year for my state involving amusement rides.....I hope he comes through.

I wish someone would build a flippin amusement park here! There is land everywhere, and KI is the closest (takes me 3.5 hours to get there). A park would do soo well around here cause where I am (Huntington) most of our business comes from Oh and Ky. Nothing big like KI, but something lol. Anything....*sigh*

It's also pretty sad that the Huntington tv station (soon to be the ONLY commercial tv station in that town) doesn't even use the correct name for the state's fair. WV is one of very few states where the fair is a private organization and has been for many, many years.

Separately, at one time Camden looked at moving to the then Addington property in Kentucky, but that didn't happen. And many years ago they came very close to selling out to the then owners of Kennywood. But Bev and John Roberts bought it instead. Sigh....

Lolololol they ALWAYS mess up around here on the news. Its like a game for us. Do you live around here and get our stations?

And what do you mean the only TV station? We have three broadcast stations here, WSAZ, WCHS, and WOWK, although WSAZ has a station here and in Charleston and broadcasts out of both during the news, and was the first news station to do that.

WCHS is in Charleston. WOWK will soon be moving to Charleston and basically closing its Huntington operation.

I now live nearly seven hours from Kings Island, in Atlanta. I follow the broadcast industry very closely.

Eh I dont blame them, no one watches WOWK. And Huntington sucks. Its like Detroit now with all the drugs and murders. Shame too, it was such a beautiful place to live. Im 26 and still remember shopping downtown and stuff. Now I refuse to walk anywhere downtown. We did just win a nationwide competition and got $100,000 for a dog park! It will be trashed within a year, but we won! ^__^, And Atlanta Airport is one of my most favorite places in the world lol. I have layovers there when I come back from TX, and I adore it. Once I got stuck there for 2 days and had so much fun!
