(no subject)

I'm so out of the roller coaster fandom. I need to get back in. (*pokes at Toronto-bound MM students* You. Canada's Wonderland. May-ish 2006.)

Duuuuuude.... Scroll down to the Intamin section and check out the Ball Coaster. That's pretty sick. The prototype is so small, though, and probably runs slow, thus more barf factor. Apparently it's LSM powered (read: Magnets).

Kinda creepy, but has yet to bump Vertigorama as "coaster tha freaks that crap outta me". Look at that! That is NOT normal!

But then SBNO coasters do a number on me, anyway... like abandoned malls too.

Open request to the floor:

....Anybody know of any really, really good CDs I may enjoy?

I'm collecting CDs for my adventure home in two weeks. I'm on a bus for 20 hours, so I'm going to bring along my favorite disks and maybe pick up a few new ones. With the price of disks today, I'm kinda worried to take a risk at spending money on an album that sucks.

The muscial areas I have interest in are...

- Anything Jazz related. I need more.
- Progressive Rock. Genesis, Rush, that kinda crap.
- Higher end Rock. Stuff that has a point to it, you know.
- What I call "Southern Ontario Folk Music". Moxy Fruvous, BNL (to a lesser point), etc.

Although I'll take any suggestion that's offered, frankly, 'cause I'm a media whore. As long as it's not inane or hurts my ears, I'm good to go.
