I'm nothing like jbiebs because I'm hilarious, talented, intelligent, and good looking, and he is not.

I've yet to see a single shred of evidence of any of the above. Being obnoxious, on the other hand, is one area where you've got even Justin Bieber beat.

I was joking.

Coasterdude wasn't.

Sorry, parks should be clean. They are public places, and if you don't keep them clean its a sign management just doesn't care. Your presentation to the public is how you make money, you need to make a good impression to get repeat customers. It is business 101.

I don't think it's dirty, and they seem to be able to add attractions every year or two.. I think their business model is fine.

I'm so glad to see you chiming in, Nate. It just feels so complete around here lately. :)

They aren't trying to grow their business to appease stock holders. They seem to be doing just fine.

When I was there this week they were running two trains through consistently. Also they had a device to simulate the arm span of people on the train, while that was on there was a person in the second car riding video taping it. Perhaps that was the inspector.

Didn't see anything going on Sunday or yesterday (monday)... maybe it's just a matter of filing some paperwork now?

Yes, that's it. Now that the project seems like a go, they should probably look into that pesky building permit.

No, what I am saying is it sounded like the inspectors were there checking everything and they're done, now it's a matter of getting an approval maybe. I don't think they would have themed and decaled all the ride vehicles, if there was still a problem with the vehicle. Now they all look like little fighter planes and not just a bare chassis.

It was a joke.

Alas, sarcasm is a dying art form...

Seems that the inspectors seen on-site at Turns were not ride inspectors, but building inspectors (for the station). Wiring the station, getting approval for up to 60-100 people to be in the building at a time....

As I said on the FB page, sure seems similar to the Black Diamond Grand O-PPP-ening....

I was recently informed that sarcasm is not a defense, it's a sign of weakness.

Sarcasm - so many things to so many people.

I thought Tsar Chasm was where they tossed all the dead Romanovs.

Boo. Hiss.

But just clever enough for a vote-up.

I'll take it...

All this sarchasm has me hankering for Mooshter's Dawntionary! ;)

That is beautiful!
