Six Flags Great Adventure announces huge King Cobra water slide

Can't complain about the money though:). Roasting for Kids and BloatsterCon are going to have to wait. This badger might just take another trip down to Florida this year. Maybe I still will hit Dollywood, Carowinds, and SF Georgia on the way down when the Heads are not there. I've never been to those places believe it or not. Love those swimming pools and jacuzzis!

.............and roller coasters too! ;)

If you are worn out on parks like I think you've said you are, I'd recommend Dollywood. It doesn't have the feel of a park but still offers the stuff we look for. It may be the best choice of those three for you. Have fun whatever you do this year.

tl;dr

Meh.

I'm not going to comment that this topic sucks. I don't even care about this topic. I will say, however, that I have a sinus infection, and I am pretty peeved about it because I was going to record some vocals today, and it's going to have to wait, yet again.

I stayed up all night last night playing Angry Birds on my iPod. I'm pretty sleepy today. That sucks.

Dollywood is fun. I don't know what it has to do with SFGAdv's waterparks new waterslide, but it is fun.

I'm going to cook beans and "taters" today. YUM!

;)

Why is taters in quotations? Is that some kind of euphemism? ;)

Yea, it is. I could have said penises, but I didn't think it would be appropriate for this family website. :D

Seriously, I never say taters unless I am talking about beans and taters. I don't talk that way, but most of the West Virginians that I bounce into on a daily basis do. I have also picked up the word "Holler", which has two meanings here; "To yell not in anger", and "An informal name for a place called a hollow".

I hijacked a hijacked topic! Go me!

Its called a 'hollar' because you can hollar from one side to the other.

Beans and taters? Did you mean beans and wienees?

Nope. Beans, like the little pebbles in a bag that you wash and then cook the hell out of for two or three hours to make them soft, usually adding ham or bacon and butter to for flavor. Taters, like fried potatoes that are sliced into coin shapes. What goes well with beans and taters? Corn bread. Kids like to add butter and pancake syrup over the corn bread.

Many West Virginians are fat, by the way.

It's an Appalachian thing. Fifty years ago, it was an affordable meal to serve the entire family. Income was very low in this area back then, so it was a meal that kept many families alive. Now it is considered comfort food, reminding people of when they were kids.

My mom tells me the story about always having beans and taters when she was a kid, and how she was sick and tired of eating it. She say, "Aw mom, beans and taters again?" Her mom would reply, "No honey. Today we will be eating taters and beans."

I wonder if Dolly Pardon ate beans and cornbread when she was a little girl? :)

Not sure who that is, but if she did I bet she said her last name a lot.

Heh.

HAHA! Very clever.

...And now I can't allow myself to correct the post. :D
