    Looks like Texas is jumping on the hybrid bandwagon. :--D Will the cars be shaped like Priuses?

    Most intense ride you've ever been on

    Eagle Fortress. It may not look like much, but boy, it delivers the forces, in spades.

    Any song by the Beach Boys instantly reminds me of California Adventure.

    How far do you lower your bar?

    I generally leave as much room as possible on smooth, lap-bar only coasters. On coasters with OTSR's, I usually pull them down all the way, I find them better that way since you're not going to get airtime on the thing anyway. :)

    Swingy Spinny thing, seating direction

    ^ Just because they're bigger doesn't always mean they're better. Take woodies, for example; Son of Beast and Mean Streak are regarded as little more than firewood (hell, one of them actually has the chance of BEING firewood), while the smaller GCI's have gotten good reviews. So, my point...

    The Starbird Project

    I like it, fits right in with the colonial setting. :) One thing though, I don't like the orange-colored trees to the left; maybe change up the colors or alternate them, because right now, they're just eye-catching - in a bad way.

    SFMM announces 17th roller coaster

    UC, you are indeed correct, Sasquatch at Great Escape was the former towers at SFNO. A little off-topic, but I'm really hoping Mega Zeph can be saved...somehow. I've always wanted to go on it, it looks incredible. Back on topic, how much theming is going to be on this new kiddie? From the...

    Bungle in the Jungle - Legoland loses a ride.

    Sorry to hear that it's being removed, although with it being neutered a few years ago it's not unexpected. I never fully understood why the covers were added; what were the exact complaints?

    Most Disappointing Ride

    To answer the question of most disappointing, it would be Silver Bullet for sure. I was expecting much more than I got from the coaster, it could've been so much more but I was really disappointed with the lack of forces and the overall length of the layout. I just felt that with that height, it...

    "Now Showing"

    Just saw The Pelican Brief with Denzel Washington and Julia Roberts. It was an okay movie, I felt the book was much, much better. Good acting by the leads, but overall it was short bursts of momentum punctuated by loooong threads of boredom. Meh.
