RE: Theme Parks
I just went to Cedar Point with two of my friends, 6 hour drive but it was so worth it. Front Row on Millenium Force and Top Thrill Dragster alone were worth it, 0-120 mph in 3.5 seconds is amazing. I've never had tears get forced out of my eyes before and stream back to my ears haha. But in all seriousness, Cedar Point kicks Six Flags Great America to the curb (about 20 minutes from my house - Gurnee, IL). Definitely the best roller coasters in the country, maybe the world.
RE: TV
Um: CSI: Las Vegas (not the shitty spinoffs, I want the real shit), I think Trigger Happy TV is hilarious but the dvd's are hard to find in the states (at least around me), Reno 911 sometimes, MXC, probably other stuff I can't remember right now. I usually just cycle through the guide and try to find something good.
