    The Horror! The Horror!

    I know this is a bit late, but work is a zoo. I got back from a solo trip back on the 18th, having spent a great week at the Pop Century getting the last ounce out of my Annual Pass. Great trip, PC delightful, never more than a 15 minute wait for a bus, etc, etc. But - first night I settle in...

    Jan - Feb AP rates

    Gang - Got an email last night with the AP rate for Jan - Feb (as noted on several threads here). Since I was planning on going in Jan I called today to book. I had three periods I could look at; two in Jan and one in Feb. Since my last three trips were to the Pop Century I wanted to go with a...

    I Can't Believe I'm Doing This!

    Okay: I finally realized what a Disney freak I am. After my solo trip in June, I said to myself: "Self - You need an annual pass, and another trip!" So, I did both. I was just there in June, and I am about to go again in September to take advantage of the AP rates. Call me irresponsible - Bet...

    My fantastic new computer!

    Not meaning to get into any PC/MAC debates - But.. %^&* my new computer defies belief. I just went crazy and bought a dual processor 2 Ghz PowerMac G5 (64 Bit), which I upgraded to 2.5 Gbytes of RAM, with a 250 Gbyte Hard drive, and a Radeon 9600 video card...wow. I also got the new Apple 20"...

    Trip Report 23 -27 June

    This was my first solo trip and let me start by saying I had a blast. I covered more ground and did more in each park (in one day) than I had ever before - because there was no discussion on what to do next and I was moving at my pace, which tends to be quicker than my wife or son. We did...

    Okay - Just got back last night (28th - after a 12 hour drive: WDW to Hampton, VA; 95 was a major pain).

    I Love Macs!

    The subject line will undoubtedly provoke all kinds of vitriol at me (PC users hate us Mac folk) but... What prompted this is that I have been using Apples's new "beta" web browser 'Safari' - and you PC users don't know what you are missing. It is very, very, very fast, and puts IE for Mac to...

    Trip Report: Caribbean Beach

    Okay Gang! We're Baack! 29 June - 6 July. What a great trip! The reason this (and a few other reports to follow) is delayed is that when we got home, we found out the water heater had died, so we have been dealing with water damage and the insurance company since. Sigh :brick: I do have...
