I went to see Snow White with my wife. My wife had no interest in seeing it, but I was curious with all the criticism of it. I didn’t actually think it was that bad. It’s not my type of movie (musical), but I still had some fun. I do agree with people that those CGI dwarves were a choice. lol
Looks like Superman: Escape from Krypton won’t be reopening at Six Flags Magic Mountain.
This is one ride I always hoped to try, but getting to Magic Mountain before just wasn’t in the cards.
Been out of work for a few months now. My best friend sent me a job to apply to with the company he works for. It was a very nice gesture, but it would require me to commute 60 miles one way. Not sure if I want to drive that far, but I’ll think about it.
My town has had more snow in the last week than the rest of winter.
Wife and I finally had a chance to watch episode 3 of Daredevil Born Again. The show continues to knock it out of the park, and the ending was nuts. I love it.
I upgraded my phone today, and I realized the thrill of getting a new phone is kind of gone. It’s almost sad to think about that these little super computers in our pockets are just common place now and changes are mainly incremental improvements now instead of new amazing tricks.
Just watched the first two episodes of the new Daredevil series on Disney+. It is so good. I love Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, but I have to say Vincent D’Onofrio’s portrayal of Wilson Fisk continues to be the best!
Was planning on doing a delivery a day to two deliveries a day in American Trucking Simulator to complete the Cupid’s Express event. Was unable to play for a couple of days, so now I have some catching up to do.
American Trucking Simulator is running a new community event: Cupid’s Express. I decided to get in on the fun and made my first delivery. Need to complete 13 more to finish the event.
I recently reinstalled Windows on my PC, and I have been trying something new with software. Instead of going to a website and downloading, I am using the Windows Store in Windows 11 to see how much I can install that way. I’m actually surprised at how many of the programs I use are in the store now
I am loving the new Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man show on Disney+
I just realized I have never read a Stephen King book. I think I want to change that this year. Now I just have to figure out which one to read.
I just saw these pics showing the progress of Circuit Breaker at Cotaland and wanted to share. They were posted on X by ThrillNerds. I was actually unaware of this coaster for the longest time. When Cedar Point announced their tilt coaster and that it was the longest, tallest, and fastest tilt coaster, I always wondered why they didn’t say first in the US as well. This is why. There was another one being built.
I think it is awesome we are getting two new tilt coasters in the US the same year. One in Texas and the other in Ohio. It will be awesome to see Circuit Breaker and Siren’s Curse in action later this year.
Cedar Point has installed the tilt track on Siren’s Curse!

Oh yeah! Fantastic Four trailer dropped! I love the old school vibe and look of the movie. I think this one will be good.
I love these videos from bioreconstruct. This one showing the ongoing testing being done at Epic Universe. This park looks amazing and opens in May. The lands that I’m looking forward to: Dark Universe, Super Nintendo Land, and Isle of Berk!
Watched the WWE Royal Rumble. One of the big yearly professional wrestling events I make sure to watch. Really enjoyed it. The ladder match between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens was nuts. The end of the Men’s Royal Rumble match was a big surprise. I did not see it ending the way it did.
Managed to mess up my gaming computer by just tweaking a display setting that never reverted. Safe mode was no help as the setting disappeared because it was loading the full drivers. Used a restore point, but a handful of programs stopped working. Guess it was time to do a PC refresh anyway. 🤷♂️
Canada’s Wonderland sharing some pics of supports for the new AlpenFury coaster. I like the blue color. I can’t wait to see the track start to get placed.
First track piece for Siren’s Curse at Cedar Point has been installed! Now we get a chance to see this new coaster get assembled. I can’t wait!

Cedar Point shared an animated version of what their new Siren’s Curse rollercoaster will look like from the front seat. Looks like a fun ride. Check it out:
My wife has been pondering getting a new iPhone for a few months now. She finally made the decision to upgrade then realized she can’t install TikTok on the new phone, so she has decided to hold off for now. 😁
My wife and I moved into a new house last year. We are about 15 miles out from the airport and in the path of approaching planes, so it is fun to watch them fly overhead. I recently discovered there are apps that can help identify the flights using AR. This is my new mini obsession now. 😄
Threads is trash. I keep getting notifications for accounts that I don’t even follow because Threads has decided it needs to show it to me. How annoying. I even turn off that option in the settings on the app, and I still get them because I use the web interface mainly.
I saw in the news that Donald Trump has a soda button. I was fascinated by this and asked my wife if I could get one. She said no. Sad.
