I'm glad President Reagan is not in a state to be aware of this nonsense. He might say:

"Mr. Gorbachev, put back up this wall!"

Regards, Ivan

[MadIvan]

Bump!

[EggsAckley]

LOL! I kept looking for the "humor" topic to show up. This is SO silly!

[bmwcyle]

Mr. Gorbachev use the French to build that wall.

Disney once had a film called "Midnight Crossing" based on a true story of an East German Family that constructed a balloon and crossed over the wall to West Germany...will this theme park have balloon rides, perhaps?

[dixiechick2000]

Wow! I never thought anyone would be longing for the good old days of communism!

"Put back up this wall!" is right!

[Physicist]

Just imagine the rides! The tunnel crawl. The interrogation chamber. The Wall climb. The bread line. Are we having fun, yet?

[techcor]

Will people be shot when they try to leave?

Isn't communist FUN park a bit of a misnomer? ;-)

[MadIvan]

East Germany produced only one thing of international interest:

Katarina Witt

And of course she was latter exposed as being a Communist spy. And then exposed fully in a magazine, apparently.

Geez, someone tell the Huns to save their marks and go to Hollywood. On the other hand, Alec Baldwin will finally have a place to call home; maybe he'll fulfill his promise to move.

[bmwcyle]

Who wants to remember the hell they lived in all those years. What a waste of money.

"...GDR Fun Park"

Yep! The old GDR was a fun place I'll bet. Laugh a minute, no doubt.

[firebrand]

Nostalgia is going to kill the theme-park industry.

Wall of Death
Words & Music by Richard Thompson


Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
You can waste your time on the other rides
But this is the nearest to being alive
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death

You can go with the crazy people in the crooked house
You can fly away on the rocket or spin in the mouse
The tunnel of love might amuse you
And Noah's Ark might confuse you
But let me take my chances on the wall of death

On the wall of death
All the world is far from me
On the wall of death
It's the nearest to being free

You're going nowhere when you ride on the carousel
And maybe you're strong
But what's the good of ringing a bell?
The switchback will make you crazy
Beware of the hearded lady
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death

Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
You can waste your time on the other rides
But this is the nearest to being alive
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death

[P.O.E.]

Will they have an Epcot-like "Tomorrow the World"?
