Well, back to the topic. *smiles* As for me, I'm not much into that many rides. I think it has to do with the fact that I hate surprises when it comes to that. So I mainly stick with the predictable ones like the carousel, Ferris wheel, bumper cars, and those raft ones that go down a river, although with the raft ones, I still like to know what's going to happen. I've gotten on some other rides, but I had to be told and shown what would happen first. But one type of ride I would definitely not get on are the ones that go upside down. I know I would freak out with those. So no thrill-seakers for me. *smiles*

Oooh! Yes rolercoasters. cheers. Love 'em. They freak me out, and the pictures they take are definetly not my best, but I love them! I think one of the best rides is the Hulk at Islands of adventure, trust me, it rocks!

I love roller coasters. I think the most fine I had was when my wife and I went on one, and I had read an article about in Popular Mechanics, namely Batman at six flags in New Jersey. She hadn't heard anything about it, and I didn't tell her some of the dtails--like the track is overhead. When you go up to the top of the first hill, they say the view is frightening, because there isn't even a track under you. She saw that and her question was "Lou, Why the *%&$@* didn't you tel me there's nothing down there?" At least that's what it sounded like through the screams. My question to all of you is do you like Wooden or Steel coasters better?

I can't stand roler coasters. What gives me a thrill is climbing things while in a harnus. get up that rock wall, don't fall. I once had an experience not too long ago where i was going up the wall, and while trying to balance looking for a foothold, I fell. It took the team everything they had to get me back up on the wall using the ropes, and i'm just a little guy! Yea for gravity.

I love thrill rides! They are so fun! I have been to Disney Land and Disney World. I liked Disney World better though because of the Tower of Terror! It was so fun because the compute would take you up a few floors in a elevator that had seats and drop you! It was so thrilling that my sister went on it finve times! I'll tell you. That summer of 2005 was something to remember.
