Holiday World [Indiana] officials announced today the largest single-ride investment in the park’s history — a water coaster that will be the world’s longest when it opens in May 2012.

The ride —called Mammoth — comes at a price of $9 million for the Santa Claus, Ind., park, which celebrates its 65th birthday today with the announcement of the ride.

The ride will span 1,753 feet and cover three acres in Splashin’ Safari, bringing the water park’s size to 30 acres. It will stand at a height of 69 feet from lowest to highest drop and feature six drops — including a first drop of 53 feet at a 45-degree angle.

Mammoth will include 10 six-passenger boats with individual seatbacks, meaning passengers could face forwards, backwards or sideways. Its speed and ride time will be determined during testing next spring.

It will begin with a conveyor ride up the coaster’s lift hill before the first, five-story drop and continue into additional hills, dark, enclosed sections and twists and turns.

Everybody. My stepdaughter passed her PT's (physical training) at AIT (advance individual training)(Cem Corps) this morning at Ft Leonard Wood Mo. Must have been around 5 & 6 AM. [Tuesday 2nd]. She is the one in the Indiana Army National Guard. She passed Basic Training last summer at Ft Jackson Sc between here jr & sr years of high school. We are going to give her a break from the end to end she's had to do and go to 2nd semester college in January. She is the one in the National Guard.

My step-daughter this morning [Wednesday 3rd] goes into a gas chamber naked with nerve agents - just so she will know what it's like - as well as know how it is to be handled that way being decontaminated.
