Looking Back... August 2008

Remember Matthew?

He was a little nervous about his first ride on The Voyage and emailed us for advice.

He just emailed back with the following report: I was pretty nervous, but I just did not look at the drop hill it was very fun. Thanks for all the great advice!!

And then he finished with: P.S. would you give me another hint please about the announcement for next season.

Tomorrow's hint, today

Okay, so Rich Davis over at the Evansville Courier & Press (remember his feature about the high Dive team?) is eager to break the story about our announcement.

It used to be you could tell a newspaper reporter something one day and it wouldn't show up in the paper until the next day. Those days are long gone. It's usually under an hour before the story appears online.

If that.

So thanks to Rich's skills as a journalist, he got a leg up on the next several hints.

A hint a day for two weeks?

Hmmmm ... that's a tall order.

Really tall.

Are you expecting me to drop a hint?

Uh ... just did.

One in a million

Mrs. Koch was chuckling over this encounter from the other day.

Man in park: How many of you are there?

Mrs. Koch: Oh, gosh...I think we have hired about 1,700 seasonal hosts and hostesses this year. Isn't that incredible?

Man in park: No, that's not what I meant. How many of you are there?

Mrs. Koch: Full-time? Oh, we have close to 80 year-round staff members.

Man in park: No, no, no. You! How many of you are there? First I saw you at the front gate and then you were running a ride. At lunch I saw you in the kitchen cutting a pizza. And now it's time to go home and you're here at the front gate saying good-bye to everyone. How many of YOU are there?

Well, that just tickled Mrs. Koch no end.

Speaking of Her Cloneness, it's her birthday next Thursday. Got any wishes you'd like passed along? Then click on the Comments link below and start typing. We'll make sure she sees them all.
