Animal World
I love the flaking stucco/plaster on the facade of the restrooms. I also like the cool, peaceful colors on the inside. I'll save you some trouble and not mention the clogged sinks. (But the sinks are clogged!) ;-) Like Mr. Perkins over at the other park, I'm confused about the "baby changing station"... Do we hand over a one-year-old, and get 2 six-month-old babies in return? Or maybe I misunderstood. Maybe this is where you can change your baby into something that isn't human, like a monkey? I'm interested to see how Scooter reacts to the room full of crazed, starving flamingos. (And how they react to him! Perhaps Scooter will get skeletonized by the famished birds.) 💀

Animal World
Hahaha. Well, I see that he was at least doing something constructive, like playing RCT3. I also see that Scooter was suckered into buying Theme Park Studio... like me. Umm, maybe they can sell a few dozen flamingos to another zoo? Has Scooter been there to check on the birds even once? I hate to ask, but when is Wanda due back? (I'm concerned about the welfare of the flamingos.)

Never Before Seen Early Plans For Disneyland
Interesting to see how the ideas for Disneyland developed over time. Some of the attractions were planned from the beginning, like the Haunted House. While other ideas fell by the wayside.

Mickey Mouse Park...a new park re-imagined by Wagi
These houses are great! I love the detailing, like the gingerbread and the hedges, and other landscaping. The many colors are nice, but not garish. Is the "Elias Pl." / "3rd St." street sign leaning a bit? Love the make-shift clubhouse. I'm looking to see if I can spot Spanky and Alfalfa. (Annette and Cubby won't be around for a couple more decades.) "Drink Coca-Cola", "Drugs", "Sodas". Early on, you got a twofer: Drugs in your soda! But they discontinued that practice before this park's era. "No bakery"... Aww shucks. And I was craving a doughnut, too. Oh well, the Coke will go well with the tacos and burritos next door. "Uncle Walt feels no one should leave the park with any spare change in their pockets!" Uncle Walt is sounding a lot like Mr. Wonder. I love the look of the Arcade. Beautiful little park. The playground slide is steep! All the more fun! Yes, I think I will have a chocolate eclair. Plus a burrito, and a Coke. Nice update, Wagi.

Trivia Bowl
Similar to the last question, I remember hearing/reading this from someplace, sometime, many years ago. B: Freezes. It always seemed counter-intuitive to me though. And I'm not sure I believe it. :-\ I know the molecules are moving faster in hot water. And they're bumping into each other more. But It's not clear to me how that accelerates the freezing process.

Are you still taking strong pain pills for your knee surgery a while back, by any chance?

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 【 I Search a CTR, CFR, CT + Request Thread 】
That Ghost Train image looked verrrry familiar. So I checked several other folders and I found it! I think this is just the car, and needs to be placed on a track: JimsGhostTrain2.rar

Trivia Bowl
Ooh, a little-used brain cell just kicked in when I read this question. I'm pretty sure it's- B: The only Temp that is the same for Fahrenheit and Celsius. I think I'm remembering this from junior high science class back in the mid 1960s!

Ahem... I do mention Wizard of Bras in my post, above. Yes, it was a thing in early Disneyland.

Well, I suppose Scooter will make less of a mess of things if all he's doing is sitting around reading Superman Action Comics.

I'm guessing Wanda is going to be mid-wife to a litter of flamingos. "I'm sure Scooter can handle things while I'm away".... Oh dear.

[Cue Etta James:] "At laaaaaast". Wow, it really was worth waiting for! This looks great! In the exterior shot, you actually made the restroom area look inviting! I like the 2-tiered drinking fountains. Although, the 'man'/'woman' sign above the drinking fountains might be confusing to some guests. They might mistake the fountains as... well...... just sayin'. Also, the hand-washing sinks appear to be clogged up. Better have Mr. Perkins look into that. (Does he work here too?)

What was your favorite thing to do in the RCT games growing up?
When I was a kid, we played with dirt. (Seriously, among other things of course.) RCT games didn't exist yet. No computer games of any sort existed yet. No computers existed yet! When I was in my late teens we played with lawn darts. We sharpened the metal tips so they would stick in the lawn better. It's surprising we survived. I started playing RCT3 (vanilla) shortly after it came out. Then I got RCT1 and RCT2. And then the RCT3 expansions when they came out. (I'm using Platinum now.) I've played all the scenarios from all the RCT games multiple times. I've downloaded a ton of custom scenery, CFRs, and CTRs. I also DLed the CTR Creator and made my own CTRs using other peoples' cars. trains, and tracks. I've downloaded tons of user-made scenarios. I usually modify the user-made scenarios somewhat so that certain rides and scenery are available from the get-go; it's more fun that way. And fun is what it's all about, right? I also have tons (at least 700) music/sound effect files. The RCT3 graphics, while good, aren't all that realistic, given the game restrictions. So I make the game more like real life by enveloping the park in lots and lots of music and sound effects. Favorite thing? Probably just walking through the park as Jonny Watts, taking in all the sights and sounds of the world I created.
