Thanks for the summary, Buck!!!  It wasn't until I was scanning through the
list of coasters that I realized how (disappointingly) few new woodies are on
the list :-(  I hope the trend doesn't continue!!

Hi Tom,

I think you're looking for SFMM on the Northern California map, not the
Southern California map...SFMM is in Valencia, CA (yes, this town does
exist).  Valencia is about a 45 minute (with no traffic jams) drive 
North of LAX.  Take the 405 North till it merges with the 5 Freeway, then
take the 5 North till you get to Valencia.

The park you mentioned near San Jose is Paramount's (aka Kings Entertainments)
Great America.  Its was originally a duplicate of the Great America park
in Chicago, but Six Flags invested a lot more in rides and maintenance than
Kings Entertainment.  While you'll immediately recognize the layout (if 
you've been to the Chicago park), you'll soon notice that all those new, large
steelies are missing from the California park.  

Paramount's Great America should open about the second weekend in March for
weekend operation until Memorial Day (and then full time for the Summer).

Does anyone know what the new ride is at Cedar Point.  Whatever happened
to that ride Arrow was working on (it was on Scientific America - PBS).

I would also like any information on contacting, ACE.


What's the best new ride, being built this year.  It doesn't matter

Anyone have them handy?  (If they are not corporate-wide, I am

I don't know how anyone who is/was a Kennywood employee could fail to mention
that Kennywood has a $3.00 (approx.--I do the POP thing, since I ride so much)
general admission which allows you to buy individual ride tickets. The GA
is nice since people who don't ride can accompany people who do to the park
without paying an outrageous price. I don't think Kennywood will ever get
rid of the GA.

Cabin-fever is here in the Northeast, right on schedule.  Only difference is
that this year daydreams of coasters are timesharing with the traditional
daydreams of flyfishing.  Anybody ever hear of somebody as old as 36 suddenly
going bonkers over roller-coasters/amusement parks?  If not, you have now.

Wife: "You've become obsessed!"

Me:
  Answer 1 - "Obsessed?, I wanted to go to Yellowstone, YOU were the one that 
coerced ME to go to Busch Gardens. YOU created a monster, so there."

  Answer 2 - "Obsessed?, you're right.  Lets ride every roller-coaster in the
country, I'll get it out of my system, THEN we can go back to Disney."

And now, the real purpose of this post.  We went to the world famous Motion
Odyssey Movie at Jordan Furniture, Avon, Mass. (How bizarre, a pseudo-flight

They re-profiled a few of the drops and super-elevations during the 
1991-1992 winter season.  The result??  A Top 5 woodie!!  *Severe*
airtime can now be found on 8 of the 11 drops.  I love this coaster
(my former #1...now #2).  *definitely* recommended (i can't figure

One exception, however: the Mighty Canadian Minebuster at CW. I know it's

Actually, recent reports in the local paper report that the whole park has  
been purchased.  There was a report on the news a few days ago about some  
buildings being demolished to make way for something to help make this  
more of a picnic/concert park.

Apparently this group has also bought some buildings, as not to have them
torn down as well.  However, some rides formerlly at Conneaut have been sold,
and will not be there this year.  The Whip, Spider, Kiddie Carousel, Hell
Hole (Chance Rotor), and a couple others were sold at the auction.

When a nature-freak marries a city-girl, where_to_go for vacations can be a
real problem.  For our first vacation (1992), we decided on Virginia,
including 2 days at Busch Gardens.  Neither of us had been there, but my
wife had heard that the coasters were pretty big and reminded me that my
fear(mild?) of heights might be a problem (I can't climb more than 1 story up
a ladder).  No problem, I said, I'll just sit out the coaster rides.

So there I was, standing outside the entrance to the Loch Ness Monster,
staring in disbelief at the height of the thing and the drop over the "Rhine
River", all the while knowing in my churning gut that I was actually going
to get on it, thanks to my eager wife and my male pride.  My knees were
literally shaking as I waited for our turn to get on.  The last thing I
remember about that ride was approaching the first drop, at which point I
either shut my eyes, or my brain just plain shut down.  That was it for coaster
riding that day, but next day I rode all the coasters at least once, and left
the park with a new addiction.  That was in September, and we had such a
great time we went back for a long weekend in October.

If there are other parks in the country (wouldn't it be great if they were
close to Massachusetts) that can match the total experience (great coasters,
food, woodsy atmosphere) of Busch Gardens, I sure would like to hear about it.  The atmosphere is very important.  For example, we stopped at Hershey Park on
the way back to Massachusetts, and it was quite a letdown after BG. Too much
asphalt, not enough botany, too many "real world" buildings visible around the 
park.

BTW, we both thought the Loch Ness Monster was the best ride at BG.

Thanks in advance for any tips.

Hi,

I'm living in Illinois, and I've seen a TV commercial

It's female choral -really smooth sounding, with
pictures of dolphins jumping up, tropical seas, 
sailboats and ends with the silhouette of a lady on
the beach I think.

If you have the title and CD name, or composer etc.
