It's cool man. I know how difficult it can be to find someone at a ride unless you have access to the rotational sheets backstage.

But yeah, maybe next time....provided for the Coaster there is a next time (Long story, not enough time)

Whoa there, Indy! There's no way we're gonna let you drop a bomb like that and just walk away. Give us the dirt ... don't make us hurt you.

We have snakes, and we know how to use them!!!

Haha Ok, Ok.

While I dont know the full story about it yesterday, apparently one of the boosters at the loading station was telling everyone that it was getting ready to burn out. So they're keeping a eye on it, about 7:40 last night a fuse or two...ok, so it was three, blew out in the ride somewhere so they went 101, but kept everyone in line. Well about 20 minutes later they figured out that the ride wouldn't be going 102 at all for the rest of the night so they closed it down.......Keep in mind out lowest wait time was about 110 yesterday...and that was the LOWEST.

Well today the line managed to get to Hollywood Scoops (Which is pratically unheard of) so that put us at about 130 min wait (Seems longer but we were hauling some major ass inside.) Normally we can't do more than groups of 85s, but the loaders were pulling an all clear everytime, so we called for 90s....same reaction, 95s we started getting to where we would normally be but we were still clearing it pretty quickly (To give you an idea, this means that the loaders will physically RUNNING down the load area checking harnesses).

About 6:30 Im at Launch Base when the manager calls me and says "Have everyone slow down just a bit"
"Why what's up?"
"I just talked to maint. and they said we need to slow down with our launches because we're sending limos around faster than the LMS can keep up. Basically we are three degrees from the system overheating"

(In plain english, if the launch system got any hotter, it would overheat, go 101 and we wouldn't be able to cool it down in enough time to open again for the night).

But we had a choice, keep going at the pace we were going at, or screw ourselves for the HORC...so we decided to keep going at the pace, dont know what ever came from it since I left at 8:30 tonight, its 10:30 by my clock so if anything went down, I might know about it later tonight.

Happy Zazu?

GMC, your humor is fantastic! Yup, backstage is pretty magical too. Everything suddenly grows feet & disappears.

Very. I'm always happy to learn that the cast is better than the equpiment. Proves what I've always believed.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to take those snakes back to Bwana Bob's....

You can bring the snakes on. They can't get to me in the office above the Outpost (Eh, visit my site, you'll understand).

Yeah, another day, another problem.

Photos went down for like 15 mins....too bad we didn't make it to 30 (At 30 we would have closed the ride)
