Good afternoon, Everyone! Good to see you all again. I am sorry I have been gone for so long and have missed the back and forthing with you. I wanted to duck in here real quick and leave you a top ten that kinda hit me. I hope you are all well and ok and I will try to get back here regularly like I was. Hope you enjoy this top ten! Take care, All!!!!

Top Ten Ways to Open SDC on Opening Day

10. Patch in NASA audio. Have launch crew do countdown to open gates!

9. Geraldo Rivera is there LIVE! to open the lost SDC vault! He finds, to his embarrassment, nothing but small pieces of old rides.

8. Billy Crystal hosts the ceremony. Does huge musical number, "Ode to Lye Soap!"

7. SDC gives Roseanne a second chance at the National Anthem!

6. Barney Fife recites the opening of the Constitution! (With Sheriff Andy's help)

5. Pee Wee Herman is MC. Secret word is "opening." Everone goes berzerk when word is said.

4. SDC gets Fonzie to open gates. The Fonz blow on the side of his fist, hits gates with said fist, the gates open, and he replies "The gates.....are officially.....Open! (pause) Aaaayyyyy!"

3. SDC gets Red Green as MC. He cuts the ceremonial duct tape ribbon!

2. COMEDIAN RIP TAYLOR AND HIS BAG OF CONFETTI! (You older folk will get that one! LOL!)

And the number one way to open SDC on Opening Day.....(and I think we will all agree on this one)

Junior gets to throw out the first obnoxious tourist!


Have a great one, SDCers! Hope you liked it!
