Philaahzophy Posts On "Ride Reports"-
Subcategories: |
Ride Reports is my personal short hand for “stuff concerning amusement parks, theme parks, play areas, carnivals, county fairs, midways, and other such spots”. Oh it also covers all sorts of rides, from kiddie rides to roller coasters, flats to dark rides and everything in between. That said, please keep your hands and arms inside the car at all times when the blog is in motion….

Vacation Posts Are Coming Soon - I Promise
Posted on May 15, 2008 - Filed Under Ride Reports, Travel | Leave a Comment
I know, I know, I’ve been back four days and still haven’t posted very much about our vacation last week. The truth is I’ve been working at it, but processing dozens of videos and well over a thousand photos is taking much longer than I expected.
Everything’s been processed now and it’s just a matter of getting all of the photos uploaded to ShareAPic and all of the videos uploaded to Revver that’s holding me back at this point. Well, that and catching…
A Brief Vacation Report
Posted on May 13, 2008 - Filed Under Ride Reports, Travel | Leave a Comment
Man, did I need that! Four days of not having to worry about anything or anyone was exactly what the doctor ordered. There was way too much happening on this trip to dump into a single post. But instead of making y’all wait until I have time to write and publish the 25 or so individual blog posts I have planned about it allow me to just say 
that I used to feel like the kitten on the left (barely hangin’…
What Happened To Aahz And Z?
Posted on May 7, 2008 - Filed Under Ride Reports | Leave a Comment
Although I’m going to try to update Philaahzophy over the next few days I don’t know if I’m going to be able to. Why?
Because I’m taking Z on a surprise trip to both the Soft Opening and the Grand Opening of the new Hard Rock Park amusement park in Myrtle Beach, SC!!!
We’ve been tracking the progress of Hard Rock Park since first learning of it last summer and had all but decided that we’d be unable to visit at all this…

Part of the Carnival Midway Games Series - Previous in series
Carnival season is upon us once again. Z and I visited our first carnival of the year a few weeks back and will be visiting our second this coming weekend. 
Thus, it seems time to refresh the memories of all those ‘big strapping’ men out there looking to win the affection of their lady love via giant teddy bears and other plush critters.
This is actually the third…

Z and I made our first joint trek of 2008 to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk last weekend. I’ve been unable to afford to renew our season passes yet, so it was a games only day (oh and Z finally got her first deep fried twinkie - she liked it 
). Sometime over the winter semi-closure of the Boardwalk a couple of major changes occurred…
California’s Great America Has Not-So-Great Opening
Posted on April 11, 2008 - Filed Under Ride Reports | 3 Comments
As a roller coaster junkie I was really looking forward to opening day of California’s Great America. Although not a new park (Great America has been in Santa Clara for more than 30 years now) March 16th was the first public operation day under the new name and under Cedar Fair’s watch. I’ve only been to one Cedar Fair park in the past (Cedar Point back in the 80s), but their reputation in the roller coaster community is huge. So…
