Welcome aboard!

What's your favorite theme park? Are there any close to where you live? Are there any you haven't visited that you'd like to visit someday?

I love Kings Island, as it is my home park. It's less than 30 minutes away and I've been a season pass holder since 2012. I would love to visit Cedar Point or Kentucky Kingdom this year. Six Flags Magic Mountain, Six Flags Great Adventure and Carowinds are at the top of my must visit list too. There are many others I'd love to visit but those are my top.

What music do you listen to?

I listen to a variety of music, my favorite artists include

Mariah Carey
The Who
Rolling Stones
The Beatles
Whitney Houston
Fleetwood Mac
Billy Joel
Justin Timberlake
Katy Perry
Jimi Hendrix

I am of the opinion pop music is great right now, but not as great as it was say in the 1990s. 2016 has been a step up compared to 2015 and 2014 so far but it does not beat 2013.

Which is your favourite Beatles song?

Probably Penny Lane :)

Probably Penny Lane :)
Good choice, I find it hard just to pick one song.

Yeah!

My favorite Mariah Carey song would probably be Breakdown on her Butterfly album or Close My Eyes on that same album.

Welcome!

Have you ever been to Disney World? If so, what are some of your favorite rides there? What is your favorite at King's Island? Least favorite? What are some of your favorites and least favorites in general at any amusement park?

I went to Disney World once in July 2008, we were only their for one day at the Magic Kingdom park, it was a great experience. I loved Space Mountain. Nothing can top the Beast at Kings Island, its legendary. My least favorite ride would probably be the Flying Ace Rollercoaster, its not that fun at all. My current favorite at any amusement park is either The Beast/Diamondback at KI or Kumba at Busch Gardens Tampa. I hope to go to Cedar Point soon!

I want to go to all of Disney World, Universal Studios Florida and Busch Gardens! I'm not a fan of riding roller coasters, though I'm strangely fascinated by them! I will watch shows about them for hours! Though I have a fear of heights I want to ride Space Mountain. Also, The Tower Of Terror!

What's your favorite TV show now?

Weather is a subject I've always been very interested in. Have you ever seen a tornado or at least a funnel cloud? If not, have you been inside while a tornado was happening? I'm in the mid-west too, though not in Ohio.

Its nice we think alike Ripley!

My favorite TV show on air right now would have to be Better Call Saul. The Middle would be second, House of Cards is one hell of a show. Girl Meets World has potential to be one of my favorites next season when they move to high school. I also like old ones such as Roseanne(before she ruined the show by winning the lottery and then that whole series finale that was so depressing :( )Boy Meets World, Malcolm in the Middle, Married With Children, Law and Order SVU, Blue Bloods, etc.

I have seen what I thought was a funnel cloud 2 times.. but it never struck down. I did see a waterspout on August 1st 2015 while we were preparing to leave Sand Key Florida one just dropped out of the sky out of nowhere!

I was in my mother womb when the April 1999 Tornado struck Cincinnati. The funnel cloud and storm went right over us and then produced an EF4 Tornado 5 miles from my house.

I've been in two that I know of. But I remember several being close by through the years. One of which I've been through was in 1991. That was a big one. I think F5 but I would have to check. We were moving my aunt, uncle and cousins out of their trailor that day. It was so bad we stayed at their new house that was about 45 minutes from our place. That tornado destroyed the trailor that day! Its scary to think we just barely got them moved. While it was still on the ground the sucker took out parts of our Air Force Base, that was maybe 20 minutes from the trailor. So it was on the ground at least that long.

Yeah, Cincinnati while it is not in Tornado Alley has had some recent outbreaks(1974,1990,1999,2008,2012)

I'm in the alley unfortunately. I love the storms up til the hail and twisters. Then it gets too scary.

Exactly, thats how every weather guy should feel.

I thought of going into Meteorology before but that takes a lot of schooling. I've just always been interested in it.

Yeah me too, are you interested in hurricanes?

What's your favorite Mariah Carey album?

Yeah me too, are you interested in hurricanes?

Yeah I love watching videos online about them. All the heavy winds and rain. There needs to be shows about them like there are on tornados.

Me too!

What's your favorite Mariah Carey album?

Either Butterfly or Daydream, I guess a slight edge to Butterfly, the artistry and depth in those songs is great.

Me too!Either Butterfly or Daydream, I guess a slight edge to Butterfly, the artistry and depth in those songs is great.


I like her first 1990 debut album, Music Box, Daydream, and Butterfly.

What was your first memory and when was it?

Probably being in the car with my mom in late 2000 or being in my baby chair in the kitchen in our old house and seeing two towers burning across water on our TV

Do you like the old school music?

Yes, I am one that likes a lot of old music, but I also listen to new music too.

Do you watch professional wrestling?

Not at all, I did watch a little bit of Wrestlemania this year though. :P It was hilarious.

Oh you mean Wrestlemania 32?

What's your favorite snacks?

I LOVE Cheezits with a Passion, Tricuits, Doritos, Sour Cream and Onion Chips, Microwave Popcorn

What are your plans for the Summer? Getaways, vacations?

I have no idea, though I would really like to got to Cedar Point or Kentucky Kingdom this summer. Another Florida vacation like last year would be very nice.

Anybody want to ask me anything? :)

What was your favourite childhood fad?

Hmmm......

I used to love Thomas the Tank Engine, I got everything from that, the VHS Tapes, a huge train set, everything! :)

Are you a wrestling fan?

:o I was scared of him! Does his face not creep you out?  ;D

Are you a wrestling fan?

Not really, though my dad got into a little bit early this year.

:o I was scared of him! Does his face not creep you out?  ;D

A little bit, one episode gave me a nightmare, the one where Percy gets stuck in a coal mine and almost could not escape. My twin brother got a nightmare from the Toby and the Flood Episode. :)

I haven't watched those but that does sound scary!

Which brings me to my next question: pet snake or pet spider?  ;D

Pet snake! :)

(Hey you are not Hillary Rodham Clinton anymore!!! :D )

Were you really born in 1999???

Yes, I really was! :)

October 13th 1999.

I may sound a bit older than I look. That may be because of how smart I am in certain subjects. I cannot relate to others in my age group as well.

Do you prefer part or full time?

Yes, I really was! :)

When you were born, I was like 10.  :o

Do you prefer part or full time?

Part time since I am in High School ATM, but I will prefer full time as soon as I get out of college.

When you were born, I was like 10.  :o

Yup, everyone feels old. :)

Favourite singer/band?

Right now, Mariah Carey! :)

Me & My Twin October 13th 1999.



Wow you have a twin?  :o

Yup! I do! :)

Hes a bit different from me, we were born identical but since I weigh a bit more than him we look different.

What would be your reaction if Donald Trump became president of the United States?

I would be alright with it, but I would MUCH rather have another Republican OTHER than Ted Cruz. I would like it better than Hillary Clinton for sure. I hate this election, both parties have bad candidates.

Hillary is promoting increasing tax revenues at the expense of Economic Growth, a path that will HAVE to be reversed in a Recession, which is coming either this year or next year.
Trump is promoting increasing taxes on the rich, lowering captial gains, getting rid of income taxes for those making below 30,000 and 50,000 for married couples and lowering taxes for EVERYBODY, not just the rich. This will create Economic Growth, very big growth, but at the cost of a huge increasing deficit.

Are you one of the today's teens that stares at his/her phone all day?

Sort of kind of. :) I would rather use a computer than a Phone but I guess that is true. Looking at ones phone makes time pass!

I would say I spend about 2-3 hours on my phone a day.

Have you had your wisdom teeth taken out?

Nope not yet! :)

Anymore questions? :)

What are your thoughts on Cyrogenic?

I think eventually they will be good enough for humans to be able to use it effectively, technology surprises us...

No, I meant the user on InThe00s.

OHHHHHH.....

:D  ;D :-X

I dont think I have ever really noticed his/her posts before, so I do not really have an opinion on him as of yet.

Do you play video games?

Yes, it is one of my secondary hobbies. I love action adventure games and strategy/simulation games. Those are my favorite.

The Legend of Zelda is awesome. and so is Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 and 1. Sim City, The Sims, they are all great!

Are you going to major in economics, or business, in college?

Most likely... I have a knack for Economics and Business and enjoy it. :)

Is the economy still okay, right now?  ???

When you can and on your free time, what do you enjoy doing?

Do you like discussing politics?

Is the economy still okay, right now?  ???

IMO... looking a lot like 2007.... the Economy seems good but trouble is just over the horizon, election, brexit... China will all affect the economy of the US. May Jobs Report may have been a recessionary outlier but the excessive flattening of the yield curve is very disturbing and when the yield curve (10 year and 2 year bonds) flattens like it has... A recession has happened 95% of the time.

When you can and on your free time, what do you enjoy doing?

Surfing the web and researching topics, I love researching! Otherwise I just lay around and binge watch Netflix.

Do you like discussing politics?

Yes! :) If you could not tell already I love discussing that. I have a friend who is a Bernie supporter who I love debating! :)

Ooh.  :o

It's like everyone here has questions for TheKid99!  ;D

Do you think Donald Trump will build a wall?

It's like everyone here has questions for TheKid99!  ;D

They sure do... ask away everybody! :)

Do you think Donald Trump will build a wall?

Uh... possibly but not in the way he is saying it. The US needs a border wall on its border and more efficent border control...  but you cannot be all like "Hey Mexico. You are paying for everything!" Is not going to happen even though we did save their country from the brink in 1994 by supporting their Peso.

Ooh.  :o

Not quite like the housing bubble.. we are in a bubble but it is different this time... but not in the standard wall street status quo deniability "its different this time" like our Economy is much different... much more stagnate, more tech filled, almost no productivity.... If we would have productivity growth like the late 1990s had... we would be in a MUCH better situation, Alan Greenspan, dislike him as I do, had a good point about productivity, "Its the secret sauce of the American Economy."

Can you drive yet?  ???

Got my temps.... driving school in my area is just so damn expensive! 500$!

Ever been to Rhode Island?

Who do you think will win the 2016 Election?

Who do you think will win the 2016 Election?

Not too sure. It's looking like Hillary.... But I wouldn't underestimate trump and become complacent. America can still surprise.

Have you ever braided anyone's hair?

I don't think I have! I once tried to do it to my hair and it looked very ugly. Lol.

What things in entertainment do you dislike, or don't understand why it's successful? Around the past 30 years, or so.

What things in entertainment do you dislike, or don't understand why it's successful? Around the past 30 years, or so.

I love movies that are inspiring... tell a story and are insanely honest...

For the life of me I cannot understand reality tv shows and their popularity... they are some of the stupidest shows ever made.

Movies are great but I feel like part of the art of cinema was lost converting to all digital and computer animating parts..

What types of books do you read? If you do like to read at all?

Oh no. What happened? :( (it's okay if you don't want to say.)

My mom was diagnosed with Melatory Vasculitus, a rare autoimmune disease that destroys blood vessels. Its in her main artery in her stomach to her heart, they caught it early but she will most likely have to undergo KEMO to get it into remission. Shes been in the hospital since 9/4/2017

Ive been kind of slipping into a depression because life has been difficult with my dad not being able to drive and me being on our own and such...

Sigh.

Have you traveled outside the country and is your mom doing much better since her status in September?

Nope, closest I have gone outside of the country is down to the family condo in Clearwater, Florida! :D

She has been relatively stable since then, she is not exactly doing better per say. Shes on the right medicines thankfully which can help ease her off of steroids which have caused her to gain a lot of weight. Shes currently on Chemotherapy right now and will be on it for the next 12 months.

Ah nice! How was Florida for you when you went down there?

I hope she's able to beat that disease that she currently has. Seeing your parents in pain is the worst feeling anyone can experience.

It really is quite painful...

Oh it was freaking fantastic! 2 weeks of absolute glorious fun. Went to Busch Gardens. Chilled by the beach most of the time. I really enjoyed it! Sand Key, FL which is just over the causeway from Clearwater Beach Island is very criminally underrated.

Anybody got any questions for me :)
