The Interpreter

You might want to be careful there. The day may come you look back to the Paramount days as the "good old days."

Nope... They use the name of the biggest metro area close by. Then again, under Snyder and Shapiro, who knows? It might be Six Flags Ohio again, sorta . . .

Since Microsoft's biggest name is Bill Gates, and he is a huge stockholder in Six Flags, rather than Microsoft's Kings Island, it would more likely be: Six Flags Cincinnati Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls...it's true....

Yep, NBC has something to do with Universal... That may be part of why that part of the company is now known as NBC Universal!

It is my understanding that Ms. Dinn is no longer affiliated with S & S Power and hasn't been for quite some time....

Uh, Universal is half owned by General Electric. And what wonderful rides have they put in lately? Well?

That doesn't really matter. What DOES matter is who is Paramount Parks going to be sold to...

We posted about the same time. Read my post right before yours. I think they have a buyer in the dock, and are about to finish up the deal...

The language of the release is such that it would be reasonable to assume a buyer has already been rounded up and final talks are ongoing. The divestiture is set to happen the second half of this year, and the parks will continue to operate in the interim. This isn't an announcement of an ongoing effort to find a buyer, it is an announcement of a pending sale, or so it seems...

If you are planning on buying a Six Flags season pass, you might want to do so quickly. Prices have already risen on them once, and may well again several times before opening days at the respective parks. The no-reentry policy has already been rescinded, but there will be major changes at Six Flags this year. See this article, for instance: http://www.ajc.com/news/content/business/s...izsixflags.html
