Ziggin' Zaggin'
Couple of random observations lately.
The Gold Company or whoever runs the Pgh buses anymore has this thing where they pick some sort of theme of words and plaster it all over the buses. Like some of the buses say "Go" all over them in a few different colors. Some say "Movin' Shakin'" which isn't even that bad. But I don't get the ones that say "Ziggin' Zaggin'." That's about the worst you could advertise for a mass transit system. Hey man, our buses are all over the friggin' road!
We were at Kennywood this last weekend. Didn't really end up riding much, but we got the highlights (Phantom, Pitt Fall, Exterminator) in early before the lines got big. Rode the "new" ride, Garfield's Nightmare. This ride sucked. It's basically the same thing as the Old Mill but with a fluorescent Garfield theme, and nonworking 3D glasses. And of course since it's "new" the line is huge. But the ride is so dull. Actually I liked the old Old Mill better. We ended up riding it most every year, because it was pleasant and the line was never too long.
