I only ever really went once ... but my gf's aunt and uncle knew about it a while ago. They just flopped this last year.

WHYYYYYY?!?!?!?! octomoose May 17 2005, 16:58:04 UTC

NOOOOOOOOOO! They can NOT cancel Waterland! We can't allow it! We have to do something... like riot or protest or sit in the parkinglot where Waterland used to be and cry. Or I suppose we can just get a new tradition..... This sucks I've already taken vacation time for waterland. Well... i know what we'll have to do... We'll have a mand and tessa BEACH BLANKET BINGO PARTY! Complete with BBQ drinks and our club room so it doesn't get to hot. and don't forget a hot tub) Now i must go and take a moment of scilence for my beloved Waterland......
