^ Its not like he wrote all that. That is just the press release. Which is all you really post for news stories. It's not that hard to do.

Of course ... the question must be asked of all: Can he/she that is selected remain faithful to do the job so that Oscar's friends do not have to listen to him complain?

That .... now THAT is the question!!

[lol]
Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

Here is an example of what I would write


[fake link fake link fake link fake link ]

It says here at this roller coaster site that the (fake coaster)Black Panther Coaster(fake coaster)will be removed from Somewhereland. It says here that at the end of the season, It will be torn down to make way for the Stupid Retard Stunt Show. I also heard that wrecking balls will tear the coaster to scrap and will be melted into pure magma. This is a sad event for Somewhereland, as with the 3 other big coasters and 1 kiddie coaster, This coaster filled the gap between big and small, people of all ages liked it, especially kids who have not yet faced their fears of larger coasters like Super Twister, (I suck at making up names)the park's Morgan Hyper. The Black Panther is made by Anton Shwartzkopf and features large swooping drops, high speeds, airtime hills, and a vertical loop. The coaster is notorius for making riders black out during the loop due to high vertical g-forces.


Now if an actual coaster that I know of gets destroyed, that's what it will sound like.

Well, not exactly, The whole tearing down thing I said was about Tornado at Walibi Belgium being torn down

These sad photos will tell you exactly what I am talking about

And about the whole laser part, yes it is based off of that but the coaster I made up was a larger,slightly faster coaster with airtime and only one loop. Okay, now I have the urge to make it in RCT3

Whoever does the news should be able to write in an objective style free of "I"s and should be able to create a variety of interesting sentences that don't all start with the same word. Fraroc, you pretty much failed.

Here is one I did just now,

Image


In what has to be one of the saddest days for the Amusement Park industry, it seems that Astroland at Coney Island, New York City will be closing at the end of this season. Thor Equities has not yet given a response to Carol Hill Albert whom has been asking for an extension on the lease. The only two rides not affected by this closing are the Cyclone rollercoaster and the Wounder Wheel. It will take about three months for the park to finish packing up all the rides and move them out which means that they needed to start that on the 3rd of September. There is a small hope that the park will re-open next season since New York City has not yet finished the rezoning of the area and will not until 2009. Thor Equities hopes to replace the park with housing and shops.

Thats an actual story mind you.

Just to let everyone know, a decision on who will fill the new position has been made. Stay tuned for further information. If you weren't contacted by myself then that means you didn't make it. [:P]

Thanks to all the people who were interested! Remember you can still help out the site by posting your trip reports, photo galleries and any news or updates you come across!

The sad sight of the ride being demoed is probably 1 million+ dollars worth of scrap metal.
