ME!

I'm in Chicago. Come pick me up on your way.

The Cyclone is fun. Do they still have the sideshow there?

That looks like FUN!!!!!

I forget whether it was on the Travel Channel or A&E (PBS?), but they showed a clip from the beginnings of Coney Island. Part of the entertainment was that they had midgets with cattle prods mingle in the crowd & occassionally stun people!

I haven't been there in years. Do they still have the Irish Fair at Coney Island? If so, when?

I haven't been on the Cyclone in years. It totally kicked my ass. I had my cell phone in my shirt pocket when the ride began. I soon realized that it was gone. My foot made contact with something, but the gravitational pull lifted my foot off of it. It was absolutely relentless, and amazing. When the 1 minute 50 second ride ended, I found my cell phone in my car. I wanted to ride again, but my body would have none of it. I might take the subway to Coney Island this week just to face the Cyclone again.

ZTAMich joined me out there, and hit Nathan's, the Wonder Wheel and the Aquariam. The Aquariam was cool, and I'm convinced that seals are ocean-dogs.

You left out the part where I beat you in Skeeball by 10pts. All thanks to my lucky first throw into the 50pt ring!
