A BLAST in the Wilderness

So the word Swoosh is now trademarked? Do I owe you money for using the word in the above sentence?

Yep, I reckon you do. :) LOL

can't get blood from a turnip

What can you get from a turnip?

not sure but I know you can fall off a turnip truck.
Turns out the first Jack O'Lantern was a hollowed out turnip.
"I did not know that" im my best Johnny Carson impression, "that is weird wild stuff"

Back on topic;
if the layout that First Drop shows is acurate or close to acurate I am looking forward to this ride. Looks like a nice family coaster and I am all for parks adding family coasters.
My concerns was with the the seats, which turned out to not be from S&S, and with the noise issue which I am sure can be dealt with by the engineers.

still looking forward to a wood coaster in the SDC woods though :P

I'm sure SDC has researched the 'sound' problem. But I could care less if it was loud or not as long as it is a fun ride. And that is all I ask for.

Who is also looking forward to a new wood coaster in the woods.

What can you get from a turnip? If you treat it well you can get a free trip on M:TR (I'll take a ride, please..... )

We didn't need that MI-Coaster Guy.

[SPOILER]
Well even if there IS a noise problem, it won't matter as it will play into the "explosion" theme that the ride will have.
[/SPOILER]

The ride will be a lot of fun and I agree Jim (I thought you weren't going to look at the layout!) that family coasters = cool. Spinning Dragons is quite popular at WOF and it's a family coaster.

The Mummy qualifies as a "family launched coaster", and I couldn't be any happier with it....EVERY trip to IoA will include a stop at Universal from this point forward...

*Family coasters* are oftentimes the must FUN...:)

I tried to not look at the layout but my interest got the best of me. I am a weak person.
Had not thought about the noise of the launch being tied in with the 'blowed up real good' theme of the ride.

Poweder keg what?!

I guess I don't understand what you are trying to say Bill, want to try again?

Umm..... I can't do that.

Lets see... nope. My bad.

I leave now in silence.

Bill, who's going down to the city this weekend.

Bill, take your camera this time when you go to the city and email me them (you know the address). I will be at SFStL this Saturday, otherwise I would come down as well.
