Knotts Berry Farm

XCELERATOR

I didn’t realize Knotts has some seriously sick rides until I saw the commercial a few months ago. I finally made it down there and they seriously have some sick roller coasters. Ghostrider, Silver bullet, Xcelerator, Scream…they are all dope. Xcelerator is like nothing I have ever been on before. Check it out.


Keep the sound down — unless you don’t care about offending your coworkers with shitty background music.

There is another ride that is very similar to Xcelerator. It is known as Kingda Ka. The only difference is Kingda Ka is 45 stories tall. Xcelerator is about 25 (3 stories taller than Goliath) stories. Kingda Ka is the world’s tallest roller coaster; has the steepest drop of any coaster and is currently the fastest @ 128mph.

Summer Movie Update

So far I have seen:

  • Up
  • Bruno
  • Whatever Works

I still need to see (most likely in order)

  • The Hurt Locker
  • Public Enemies
  • Transformers 2
  • The Hangover (Again)
  • Inglorious Basterds
  • GI Joe
  • The Wash

By the way…while we are on the subject, Bruno was disappointing. Over 90% of the movie is in the commercials. I’m not saying it’s the worst movie I have ever seen, I knew what I was getting into…I’m just saying after Borat, this was lame…and slightly disturbing.
