ok, when i was a kid we would go to the nazareth pool. its a shame, if there 30 people there anymore your lucky. today, eveyone has a pool in there back yard. i remember going to bushkill park but never willow park. heck dorney park was free to get in, but you needed tickets for everything. hershey park was just about wdw, choc. world ride is like wdw rides.:lmao:

I've never been to the Nazareth pool. We went to Willow Park, Heil Park Pool and sometimes to the Bushkill Park pool. The last time I went to Dorney was when our DD was about 3 or 4 (she's 33 now). There was an incident on the merry-go-round and I swore I would never return, and I haven't! It didn't even involve us directly but I can really hold a grudge! ;) I've never been to Hershey Park except for the chocolate factory and the gardens. I'm hoping to finally make it to Knoebel's with the grandkids but haven't ever been there yet, either. We have been to Dutch Wonderland (where we met Chief Halftown!), Wild West City in NJ, Land of Make Believe (NJ), the Turtle Back Zoo (NJ, don't know if it exists anymore), Great Adventure and King's Dominion in VA (all trips with the kids when they were young). My DW and I went to Bush Gardens Williamsburg once and it was closed! The off season had just started and it wasn't open weekdays. :confused3 Oh nice! When I was a kid, an aunt and uncle took my brother and I to a place called Freedomland, which I think was somewhere in NY. I also made it to the 1964 World's Fair with them and remember the Carousel of Progress and an attraction by Monsanto, I think, where you ended up being under a microscope. The Wonders of Flight might have also been there but I'm not sure. I made my first Disney trip to Disneyland while I was stationed in San Diego in '72.

No, you have to work to get incarcerated AFTER you get elected. Try to put yourself in charge of collecting DIS Dad club dues or something. That should help. :stir:

I'll take care of collecting dues and managing the payroll. :rotfl2:
(Why yes, my 2 year old provides a valuable service for her 6 figure salary.)

It's the little things like reporting on nothing to report that probably makes you over qualified for the postion of International Reporter but that being said "Keep up the great work"

:cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:.

This is true:lmao: I would rather pump my own. They say it keeps the insurance down for the gas stations, therefore gas is cheaper (only by a few cents). They were going to stop it a few years ago, but with so many gas stations in this state, they employ alot of people to pump gas if they stopped:teacher: unemployment would rise.

We are also one of the only states that you can not buy beer & wine in a supermarket or a 7/11 etc. You have to buy it at a bar or licquor store:headache:

The greatest invention - the drive through liquor store. In KY, you can purchase beer & wine at grocery and other stores. We even still a few people making their own moonshine. It's not quite like you see on the Dukes of Hazzard, but it makes for a better story.

Welcome to the club Don will be around shortly to issue you your DDC number:welcome:
 
i don't think you should look at it as a issue.this is a site on which people discuss things. now sometimes this can be things like what's the best use of unwanted fanny packs or the best way to eat a mickey ears ice cream. sometimes we can get to discuss grownup things and as long as people don't get nasty or rude then anyones input shouldn't really be knocked.

just don't talk about giving your seat up on a bus thats all ;)
You didn't go there did you? What you trying to start another riot:lmao::lmao:
