Top 10 Signs I'm Addicted

I spend all my internet time on coaster web sites. And when I'm not on the computer, I'm at BGT, IOA or SWO riding coasters. And when I'm at work I still have coasters on my mind. By the way, How do you get a job in the coaster field?
OMG! ..... And I thought I was bad.

Six Flags Great Adventure rules.....well... on weekdays that is
I find myself designing new elements for inverted coasters that may or may not work. (in my special little notebook) I think about how much money an amusement park makes per scream.
I use my meetings at work to doodle coasters
Its 1:05 and I'm looking with the slightest twinge of hope to see if anyone mentions Valleyfair in a topic. I am sad.

Another reason

I treat little bumps in the road as training for the bigger airtime hills on Superman at SFA. :)

Ready to spring into a new coaster season! :)

I've got construction pics of Wicked Twister posted on the wall of my office. I talke about it and other coasters to students who come in for computer access ID's.

My wallpaper on my PC at work is of Millennium Force.

I visit 3 coaster forums several times a day, every day

1. The fact that I built my K'Nex coaster in front of my wife's computer desk and she hasnt been able to use the computer for about a week now.

2. The fact that whenever I start talking coasters to my wife, her eyes glaze over and she gets the expression of "oh no, not again!"

3. My cubicle has postcards from all the coasters I rode in Florida last winter.

4. My desktop on my PC at work has a reproduction of the CCI promo poster.

5. My wallpaper at home is Millenium Force.

6. When we get tons of snow I wonder how I could build an out and back tobaggon coaster.

7. I am seriously considering a move to Florida to be around coasters year round.

The #1 sign was when MTV was doing a little tidbit on Carmen Electra, and I knew what park she'd worked and recognized her by her real name...

Now that's dedication! How could you possibly remember that?!

Whenever I spend a long day at a park on a hyper getting good air, I always look at the hills in the road on the way home and subconciously think about how little air I'm getting from them.

rOLLocOASt...we spent a whole Saturday at PKI trying to track down all sorts of tidits about the park as part of a "Trivia Contest". Any question that stumps me the way that one did, I'll remember...;)

I doodle coaster layouts when I'm bored in a class

I visit many coaster sites several times a day

my friends were trying to get me to show some guy who thought he knew everything about coasters in SFGA and PGA his errors (I was too polite to tear him apart in front of his kids)

I have monthly debates that deny me the sleep I need to argue with my roommate over which park is better: CP or SFGA

I'm taking the week before Memorial Day off of work so that I can go to BGT before going to my cousin's graduation from the Naval Academy

I specifically looked for a school near parks before deciding on where I would attend college.

8) When I swim in the pool, I follow coaster layouts i.e. loops, dive loops etc.

I'm forever doodling the MF logo on paper when I'm on the phone. I visit this site and GTTP multiple times daily. I am constantly planning my May 13th and 14th trip to CP. I have the WT construction cam as my active desktop and it refreshes every minute. And on my drive to work, I listen to the MF song that I downloaded from GTTP and burned to a cd. (Your the cause of all this Jeff! LOL)

Pearl Jam + Roller Coasters = Heaven on Earth. :)

1) I would atleast every other week, if not every week on my way home from skiing in Vermont this winter, specifically take the "scenic route" home so I would have to go by SFNE to check out the construction of Batman The Dark Knight

2) I've been known to purposely forget items at Home Depot during the week so I have to go back on the weekends(40 minutes from my house to HD, and SFNE is only 10 minutes from HD :-) )

3) My wife and I are SERIOUSLY considering spending a week in Ohio this summer to goto CP and SFWOA instead of our regular vacation week in Martha's Vineyard

4) I find in very interesting and exciting reading about how many tons of steel, rivets used, miles of cable used, cubic yards of concrete poured, etc that goes into building a coaster(and then generally recite some of this data when I'm in the queue line for that particular coaster)

5) I actually admit to all of this!

I just want to match MooreOn with one: I draw pictures of coasters on a special notepad during teacher's meetings, so that I can create them when I find the time on RCT.

Are we strange, or WHAT?!?!?!

There's nothing like a woodie...



yes we are..... :-) but i love it!!!!!

Millennium Force......It has its ups and downs.

www.helpmeineedtorideacoastercauseithasbeentoolongsinceihaveriddenoneandiam goingtogocrazyoneverybodyreadingmysignaturerightnow.com
I have 32 coasters in my track record.....I'm so proud of myself.

Im sitting here surfing in the forum's when I have over 35+ pages to write before the end of the semester in two weeks!!!!! GO MSU

Wrote a sociology paper about amusement parks.

Instead of learning about Mitiosis in college biology, I draw rollercoasters and log flume rides....

When I hear a name of a state I start to think about which park is in that state

If I don't visit this site at least 3 times a day, I am lost.

At college, when I am at a workstation I put a new Rollercoaster wallpaper up from www.rcdb.com just so I will have something to stare at and wonder how much airtime I can get from it....

When I sit here and read the list and thank the lord I am not the only one who does all of these things....

- I pretend I'm riding the coasters while playing No Limits. Meaning, I'm moving left or right, up or down, and even imagine how the airtime, positives, or laterals would feel. YIKES! :)

- When a coaster is in sight, I scan it like a doctor in surgery looking at all of its details.

- My summer work availability rotates around getting optimal park trips.
