How I Almost Fell Out of 2 Roller Coasters- Indiana Beach 7-5-04

No, But Im smart enough to untangle a seatbelt before I sitdown.

---

But yet not so seasoned to know that the proper name is HERSHEYPARK

---

Anyone notice the spelling on Roller Coaster Rollback?

"7/7/1903 - The site for Hershey Park is chosen and 150 acres are reserved."

Back then it _was_ Hershey Park...now it's HERSHEYPARK, so the RCR is correct as it is referring to the name of the park when it was created/built.

It changed from Hershey Park to HERSHEYPARK in 1971, according to their website. http://www.hersheypa.com/town_of_hershey/history/hersheypark.html

Nothing like a good semiotics debate to keep things interesting around here.

And to think, it all started because I was trying to give a smart a$$ed thread in response to the "seasoned" comment.

It's semantics, Brian.....sheesh! ;)

SLFake...any particular reason you had to do do a full quote of the post prior to yours? Obviously, you're not all that seasoned, either. ;) *** Edited 7/7/2004 8:10:00 PM UTC by redman822***

I'm anti-semantic ;)

So I am not a seasoned quoter... but at least I know how to spell Horseyperk... (and also how to untangle a seat belt)

Okay, now you've made me go all professorial on you.

It's semiotics. If we were debating semantics, we'd be debating the meaning of HERSHEYPARK (or the place that is denoted by that symbol). But, we are debating which of two alternatives are the current "name" of the park that is apparently denoted by the word (symbol) HERSHEYPARK.

Therefore, we are having a semiotic debate.

To be completely correct, at the moment, I'm having a meta-semiotic debate---a debate about the proper symbol denoting our debate. But, that path leads to madness.

Personally, Moosh, I favor antidisestablishmentarianism.

You would ;)

I haven't figured out if this tread went down the tubes today, or yesterday?

Ok I give up.

Ive only been to the Orlando and Tampa parks.

I am a horrible speller and I should never try to defend my age or maturity again.

I hope you've all had a laugh from this at least, I sure have.

I'm gonna go back to being my normal stupid lame nerdy coaster enthusiast self.;)

"I'm gonna go back to being my normal stupid lame nerdy coaster enthusiast self"

You mean you stopped??? ;) LOL

LOL Kyle! No need to go overboard.

The new CB shirts should say:

I'm a normal stupid lame nerdy coaster enthusiast ... that eats... nevermind.

Well here's why. On Intimin rides, this is a true story. A man thought it was goin give him extra air time so he took of his seat belt(this was on Millennum Force) the train emiditly(sp) stoped on the lift. They had to take the escape car up to the train and convinse the man to put back on his seat belt for the ride to start again.

How old are you? 9? 10?

A wise man once said: "I smell a troll!" Oh wait, that was just Moosh. ;)

Moosh smells?
