And once it arrives, it will have to go thru weeks of safety testing during times the park is closed to get DOSH to approve the new design. |

And it was great to see the truckloads of toys Knott's collected for Toys for Tots yesterday, and there will be plenty more truckloads (thanks UPS) to come over the next few weeks. |

They changed it to reflect The Year of a Million Lame Promotions. |

That's just totally tacky. It's one thing to have an attraction promote another attraction (synergy), but it's quite another for an attraction to promote a PROMOTION.
