I now have a youtube channel and ive noticed that a lot of people like Busch Gardens Europe better than Kings Dominion!  Kings Dominion has more coasters, more rides, and a much less boring atmosphere.  So if you like Busch Gardens better than Kings Dominion than you are an idiot, srry!

The term "roller coaster" is often misused.  When people are happy and then sad or vice-versa they say "OMG, Today I have been on an emotional roller coaster!”  Roller Coasters are designed for fun and thrills, not for over exaggerating a tough day that was no fun at all.  Every time they say this term tell them that they should never say that again because that is very derogatory to actual roller coasters.  If they think you are stupid, then print this out and give it to them.  Tell them to instead say "Today has been full of ups and downs for me!”  Help stop the roller coaster name abuse and put an end to "emotional rollercoasters".  Everyone can make a difference and if you do this than you get to imagine me personally giving you a high five (do not imagine unless you actually do this, I have spies everywhere and if I am notified you did this or they hear you say "emotional rollercoaster", you will be in big trouble!) jk!  Hope you guys have a great rest of the week!

In Random Stuff Weekly I like to mix it up!  Did you know that there are 4 operating coasters in North Korea and two SBNO coasters?  Two or three of them actually have loops.  While most of them were built in the 80's, this is still quite amazing.  I wonder if Kim-Jong has ever ridden a coaster.  He is probably too busy trying to plan the world's demise.  It makes me feel a little better that the oppressed people of North Korea do have an opportunity to have some joy in their lives through roller coasters and amusement parks.  To sum it all up, amusement parks (and their coasters) can have a much greater effect on people than a fun day even in places where freedom cannot be truly experienced.

One of my favorite gamez is Roller Coaster Tycoon 3.  It is truly a great game for roller coaster fans.  I wish they would put out another sequel, but it looks like the creator, Chris Sawyer and Atari have split.  RCT4 could have even better coasters and new advanced designs with HD graphics and realistic parks with plenty of scenery.  Even real coaster makers and real train makers for the coasters for your park could have been featured.  Still, RCT3 is great and I will always love it.  If you have not played I highly recommend it.

Ahhh, the smell of a new post.  Kinda like the smell of a new car except less noticeable.  I am going to talk about my hate for various flat rides (sorry about my selfishness).  I have been on 25 roller coasters and counting and have never blown chunks or even felt sick, but whenever I ride a flat ride like a top spin (ex. Tomb Raider at Kings Dominion) or a pirate ship it makes me feel a little sick.  While I ride flat rides, I try not to ride more than 3 a day to eliminate the possibility of vomiting.  I'm sorry if a grossed you out, but I should have you know I have never thrown up on any amusement ride.
