With the long line-ups, I only
had time for 3 adult rides (Minebuster, Psyclone & Timberwolf Falls)
and spent the rest of the time lining up at the kids' rides.

Is "line-ups" a Canadian thing? This is the second negative PCW trip
report I've seen that uses line-ups to describe a queue.

To me a line-up is something the police do when they need someone to
identify a criminal suspect.

I always thought line-up was North American ... in England they always
use queue, and in Ontario they always seem to use line-up? Where
else do they use queue in NA? I remember using the word queue
in Ontario 15+ years ago, and people would look at me strange.

Ah, perhaps that's the issue ... not having any crime here, there isn't
that negative angle to the word. :-) :-)

So does mean we won't see you in the "line ups" next year? Thanking you in
advance for not plugging up the "line ups" in 2004.
