You Know You're An Emgee When....

...your friends start talking about their vacations and you make sure to tell them every single amusement park on the way.
Yep, I did that today. Guilty as charged. :-D I also promised to mail them coupons to those parks as well, and told them where to find more coupons if they lose those.

...you built a backyard coaster with 2x4's and a wagon growing up.
...you have nightmares about a coaster being closed the night before you visit a park. This doesn't really happen anymore now that most big parks have more than 1 or 2 coasters, but back in the day this would terrify me.
...you've met a GID on a coaster related site.

...your notebooks from school or scratchpads at work are covered in doodles of coaster layouts. A girl in college ask me why I was always drawing pictures of birds. (picture the side view of lift, dip, 180 degree turn, and hill)
Too funny Scott! I do the exact same thing, mainly from boredom here at work. My ex boss found these once and asked if I secretly wanted to be a pilot or something (I guess she thought they were stunt plane flight patterns or something!).
Well I can understand shampoo, soap, and other things like that. . . but I gotta tell you something.
When I went to CP for the first time with my two friends, my one friend(who is also a C'Buzzer, Dragster is his name-O)Nick stole EVERYTHING with the words 'Cedar Point' on it. EVERYTHING. Cups, ice bucket, pens, binder, and he almost took the toilet paper before he left it because it didn't say 'Cedar Point' on it.
So when is someone gonna market a coaster pillow for us to drool on?
Never because it would just be a big waste of money having 4-5 pillows disappear with every occupant.
So how was your day?
...you inquire about the capacity of The Dragon so you know how many hamsters to buy, so you can fill both trains to capacity and have them duel each other.
...you are already pricing digital video cameras so you can share this "event" with everyone else on CBuzz.

...every time there's a new visitor to your household, you insist on making them watch your dvd copy of "World's Greatest Rollercoaster Thrills...in 3-D!". You bring in the fan we talked about earlier and position it directly in front of you and your company. You simultaneously throw your hands in the air, hit the remote for the fan, and scream like a little girl at all the "right" moments. You even throw up in the lap of your neighbor as your way of turning this spectacle into a *4-D* event for your patrons, err, guests. And after the segment on Dragon Mountain, you bore them to tears with the plans you got off some internet fan site that details what the theming was supposed to be like, and how the ride now makes sense once you view what was originally going to happen. Once that neighbor returns from wiping your dinner off, you fast forward to segment 6, where you inform them that the ride that they're about to experience is now actually gone, and you have it in 3-D for the ages. Aren't you just so cool...
Back to the flying coaster. How would you make a modification feasible? *** Edited 8/4/2004 7:31:44 AM UTC by Robocoaster***

Rubber bands.
OUCH! Poor hamsters!
Now I'm MORE than willing to rubber-band a CAT to a ride and let it loose, but I'd have to build a bigger cat torture dev.... er, I mean a bigger coaster for my test subjects.
....when you make rides for your pets until you can afford to make rides big enough for yourself. Then you take your pets WITH you on the ride so they don't feel left out! :)

...when students/faculty/staff/friends contact you to get information on an amusement park they are going to
...when people who know you like coasters send you emails of coaster related items and you already know about it. This includes events, incidents, announcements that occured mere hours beforehand
I'd rather die living than live like I'm dead
Certain victory.
