Hmm...first time I had seen it. I was beginning to wonder if the blueprints spoken of were actualy those of the rumored 2009 coaster...

I wear vans almost everyday. I have three pairs, white and black checkered pattern (which are after 2 years brown and black), yellow and black checkerd pattern (Go Steelers!), and blue and black checkerd patter (which are currently covered in mud from band camp last year...) But, I also wear Onitsuka Tigers, made by Asics. They're pretty comfy, and I usally wear them to theme parks.

Hmmm...I think the only roller coaster dream I've had, was... I was at CP, riding Gemini, only it was an all wood coaster, and the supports were white, while the track was red. But regardless, it was still Gemini, even if the layout was completly different...haha. Well, we went down a hill, and started to go up another one, when I got too much airtime and flew out of the coaster, and died. It was still a fun fall though.

I don't know if it was like this before (because I would rarely visit the KI Theatre/Theater) but did it have neon lights like that? Because to me, the neon lights don't exactly match the style of the building. Other than that, I really like the new signs. Thanks for the update!

This I am not sure of. It might have been at Camden Park, and if so, it was probably the last time I was there...14 or 15 years ago

Hmm...I wasn't aware of the work going on with Racer/Racer (formally recaR). Thanks for the update!

I joined on March 25th of 2005 after hearing from a friend about KI getting a ride that was like Test Track at WDW (which would turn out to be BLST).

Ugh. I certainly hope NOT. Of all the B and M hypers I have ridden, Apollo is by far my least favorite. To me, it's like a giant simulator ride with high speed fans. Raging Bull is a close second to last.... Also, note that you cannot judge a ride by its test runs. After the ride begins to break in, it may also begin to brake in. Or not. We will see. Good sir, I must disagree! Raging Bull is one of my favorite B&M's of the few I have ridden that is. Of course, maybe it was the fact I rode it 10 times in one day...quantity vs. quality? Now, Goliath at SFOG...incredible.

I'd love to visit the park while covered in snow. To me, it would be so peaceful and quiet. On the other hand however, I'm ready for Spring and Summer! We had two lovely days of sunny, 70 degree, and slightly breezy days last week, which was bad because I want that back. Now it's rainy and 40-50 degrees. Last year, I would've loved more winter, but now that I spent time every morning scraping ice/snow off my car, I want spring.

Now if I could only manage to get tickets and go...

I'm trying to think, I only believe that I've been on the upper platform of the tower as well, but I'm not sure.

I'm just looking forward to a visit in general.

I would like Star Trek, even though I am wearing my Star Wars belt.

I thought this article was at least a little bit related to this topic. 10 closet gas guzzlers My father's Jeep Commander, while not on the list shares the fuel milage of the two Jeeps on the list (Liberty and Wrangler), but boy is it sure fun to drive...oh well, a V8 will do that to you.

I am! But, EK won't be open when I am there.

New photos from the GCI Interns: http://greatcoastersinterns.com/photos.php

I drive a '97 Dodge Caravan, and get 20mpg gallon on a good day. However, I basically just drive from my house to my school, which less than 5 miles, and back, barring the ocasional trip to Husson's Pizza, or to Quaker Steak and Lube for Wing Night with my friends. Regardless, I cry evertime I put gas in my car.

Do you mean the students pay?

I work for a county school. We're already there. However, its not put into those words. Its called "pay to play". Really? How's this work then?

I knew it would happen! I feel so smart because I filled up my car $2.96 two days ago. Anyways, I hope this doesn't put a damper on my summmer plans such as KI, beach trip, workcamp. I also wonder how much longer it will be until the county school board says "Sorry band, but we can only afford to send the football team to and cheerleaders to tonights game...etc"

Also, www.sfstl.net has been doing really good with getting construction photos posted, and the GCI interns site has some as well.

A bit judgemental, eh? I've seen weddings and proposals happen in very odd or unusual places. I think the idea is to try to be unique. Case in point...I was at a Huntington Blizzard hockey game and they were giving rides on the zamboni during intermissions. Apparently, this guy had set up his girl to get a ride and about half way finished, the zamboni stopped on the ice. The driver was feigning a problem with the zamboni and her boyfriend came out on the ice and proposed to her. I thought it was pretty cool. Italian Chef, I would say International Street right in front of the fountains. Ah! I went to a Huntington Blizzard's game once...a long long time ago...and I really can't remember it. But I did get this really cool hat there, so that's probably why I remember it. Anyways, I'd have to go along with getting married on International Street, and since I'm doing my wedding on an unlimited budget (yeah right) I'd rent the park for the entire wedding party for that day.

^And who could blame you. I was just happy to see the process of coasters being contructed in HD! haha

Are you sure it was Maverick? The episode I saw of Build it Bigger had Griffon, and Renegade.

I'm glad you had a wonderful time there, and I am very jealous that you got to go. Hmm...caption for the Emu picture...I've got nothing, maybe later.
