Rummy's enjoying this far more than he should. 

Tortilla.  Do you work at the Park?  because we were there on Monday, also, in the rain. 
Yeah, I work at dragon challenge. If you rode the blue side after 2:20 Monday I either strapped you in or let you off.
If you were wearing one of the "Just married" or "honeymoon" buttons I probably said congratulations and if I didn't then I apologize. That was my 7th day in a row working so my guest service was a little off.

While we're talking about Universal nobody ever ride Rip Ride Rockit.  That was just the system glitching and ride stopping which happens, but the ride is very poorly built and I don't know many people who work at the parks who feel safe riding it.

We didn't make it to Dragon Challenge monday, did it today. 

... we rode Rockit twice on monday....  felt straight up wonky for a couple hours afterward.  Damn ride is intense, granted I was a small amount of hungover and we rode it twice inside of 15 minutes first thing in the morning. 
[/quote]Nice. Hope you enjoyed it. It's my favorite ride at IoA.

What else in CFL are you doing? If you have the time definitely go to the Space Center. It's so cool seeing all of that stuff up close. Everything is so huge.

My wife entered some contest that ends today and she was in first but a bunch of people blew past her this morning =(. If you want to help go here - https://www.facebook.com/LOTTEDFS/app_159020724217437 - then like the page and then go to the end and like Natalie in the orange shirt. Make sure you hide everything by them and unlike them when the contest ends tomorrow or they will spam your facebook wall.

Be sure to go on Expedition Everest first thing in the morning at Animal Kingdom because the queue is super short. Also check out the Finding Nemo Musical because it's really good.

You're at Epcot already so I doubt you'll check this but Mission:SPACE Orange was the death of my stomach. Nausea-land. (go for Green)
Soaring is super popular for some reason, it's ok in my opinion but not 60 minute wait good (so we always did that first).

We kinda seek intensity in our rides... Orange team to lyfe. 

We hit a fast pass for soaring right out of the gate.  The car one broke down while we were in line.

Test Track always manages to break down. I managed to get on it though but then it started raining a bit and so we couldn't go as fast Sad
Are you guys going to Hollywood Studios at all? Tower of Terror is the best over there. Standby for the Toy Story thing was already 20 min first thing in the morning and 120 min when we left in the afternoon (it's fun but not worth the wait. Fastpass!)

I went to Didnylann 4 years ago. "It's a Small World" was closed.

It was perfect. I don't think I want to return because IASW might be open.

Got around to disconnect my Soundaktor engine noise speaker. I was disappointed to find out that it's not even a microphone and "real" speaker, but a system that is computer controlled and creates vibrations between the firewall and cabin. Removing it makes driving much quieter and there is no disembodied rumbling at highway speeds or harsh growling from 1st to 2nd under brisk acceleration anymore. I don't understand why many newer cars now have electronic engine noise generators sneaked into them as opposed to letting the natural sound of the drivetrain do its thing. It's not as if the sound of the engine requires masking or enhancement.

It might also give the VW group an excuse to charge more for Audis using the same engine by creating the illusion of better insulation and more refinement.

Remove the noisemaker so it sounds better than it does in the commercial.

BMW caught hell from the enthusiast community for doing that on the new M5.

I would think that BMW has been in catching hell mode since the whole no more naturally aspirated i6 and electronic steering galore things happened. At least the dumb noisemaker shits can be unplugged.

Today started off with me finding period blood in a seat and kept going downhill from there.

quieter car means less volume needed on speakers while driving. Lower volume means less power draw and fuel consumption in some cases. Ill take it.
Also its easier to know if something is wrong with your car if its quiet

I work on a roller coaster. It was probably some Brazilian. They're the worst.

Eu falo o portuguese um pouco. 

And yes, there have been a metric shitstick fuckington of Brasiladas in the parks the past week... Great Googly Moogly, those chicks don't know how to not have their Ass Cheeks hang out of their cutoffs.

I have the week of November 11th off from work, and was wanting to travel from Thursday to Sunday. I don't have a definitive idea of where I want to go yet, though. Possible suggestions were to explore Arizona and have a road trip to California to meet and greet everyone there. I am open to ideas if anybody has them. All travel will be by car, so I can't fly anywhere.
