1986 Worlds Of Fun Theme Park Map Takes Me Back

Bradley — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:03:41 +0000

Remember when admission to Worlds of Fun was $14.95 and such awesomeness as the AMC Incred-O-Dome Theatre, Omegatron and the Wobble Wheel still existed?

Theme Park Maps has a great collection of propaganda from the park’s 1980‘s heyday.

Maps and brochures from most theme parks across the US are also available if you care not to recall the teenage horror of centrifugally-vomiting inside the Finish Fling.

Abandoned But Not Forgotten: Bannister Mall

Bradley — Fri, 22 May 2009 19:32:14 +0000

I recently discovered some cool pics of Bannister Mall looking rather unseemly on one of my favorite websites Abandoned But Not Forgotten.

Who doesn’t enjoy a little urban exploration now and again?

It’s worth taking some time navigating the other areas of the site including the always haunting perma-furnace known as Centralia, PA.

The Unreal Housewives Of Kansas City Is Trying Too Hard

Bradley — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:21:30 +0000

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m a super fan of Bravo‘s The Real Housewives of Orange County — mainly because of Shane Keough but sadly he rarely makes an appearance anymore.

So some stupid Johnson County bitches decided to make their own parody web series called The Unreal Housewives of Kansas City.

And it sucks.

The first episode is painful, lacks comedic screenwriting and should be two minutes shorter but some of you out there might find it entertaining!
