Currently watching "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory"!
Has anyone else ever noticed the Hidden Mickey's in these doors in the movie...?

View attachment 205481

I noticed them several years ago, but, can't remember if ever posted about them.
Not sure of it was intentional or not, but, Harper Goff was the Art Director for the movie...!

That is awesome! Wait til I show DS.

Hahaaa...! Yes, pretty cool..!
I had to do a double take the first time I noticed them, and then was really paying attention the next time ('cause they're visible for a very short while, for the most part) to make sure I wasn't just imagining them.
Not even sure if they were a thing back in '71 when the movie was made...maybe it was an inside thing among Disney Imagineers, Animators, etc., before it became more public...either way, still so fun to see...!

I am afraid of that for when I go in a couple of days.

It's not Wishes but it has way more fireworks which is good but didn't like the castle stuff.

That being said - give me a two decades old Illuminations anyday.

 

[donaldtoo]

I'm in. That would be fun. I have dibs on a Coke Icee', while people watching. A salted pretzel sounds good too!

Enjoy a "Mickeyrita" or 2, as well...!!!

Wait...we don't play the lotto...

 

[donaldtoo]

I like all three...hubby won't let me have just one little teeny tiny Margarita. Darn that Dr.!

Sympathy like.
Time for a new Doc.

 

[donaldtoo]

I've got a solution for your doc

Does it involve leaving a certain something, but, taking the cannoli...?!

Sounds like a bunch of you were super productive today especially with your gardening. I'm jealous I haven't bought my plants yet, but I might this Thursday.

Kapono and I took a walk today we had to cut it short as westarted to get rained on, and I stopped to smell my neighbors lilacs(hers smells better than mine) and I saw a butterfly feeding on the nectar. That was pretty cool I took a couple pictures to share.

And a picture of my lilac bush. It is the first time it has bloomed this much since I have loved here and it has been almost 12 years.

By the way I would have tried to get better pictures but a little schnauzer kept pulling her leash that was on my wrist. I guess she saw home and wanted to get there.

We're getting a full blown here as well, similar flowers.

 

[donaldtoo]

Finally, a voice of reason on here!!

Today is starting out at 46, and I'm liking it!!!

You just need to relocate to the North or South Pole already, and be done with it...!!!
Which would you prefer...snow, ice, and polar bears, or snow, ice and penguins...?!

 

[donaldtoo]

Oh, for heaven's sake, put on a Mickey sweater and stifle!

 

[Wrangler-Rick]

Hey @ajrwdwgirl, how's the weather on your side of the state? We had rain storms earlier and it's eerily quiet here now. Looks like more stuff moving this way...

 

[BuddyThomas]

Look! I bought a suit! I would have preferred to spend this obscene amount of money on a trip to WDW, but it couldn't be helped.

You have to stop trying to make my brain explode with all these totally stunning pictures. On second thought, I'll take a small brain explosion to see these beautiful shots.

Nice shots. Phil has these in his backyard as well.

Since I've been married('99), we have moved 4 times. I hate it. But pretty sure there will be one more move in my future, but it should be to Florida. So I guess that will be ok.

DWifey and I have moved 1 time since we were married in Dec. of '88. We moved from our 2 bedroom apt. to the home we bought in Feb. of '90, and are still here. We still love the neighborhood and location in relation to the rest of Austin.
But, after our upcoming trip during the holidays to Key West, it may, potentially, get some consideration as the next and last place we move...!

Somethin' tells me the "world" wasn't what that fish was shown...depending on your POV, of course...!!!

I knew guys in HS that did this with baseball bats...
And, seriously, I wasn't one of them...I just wanted to get the heck out of HS ASAP, with no complications.
But, it did give me a good chuckle, anyway...!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Our cars don't even come with any visible antenna. We now have Mickey icon family stickers on the rear window.

Yea, I'll always find a way to put a Mickey on a car, somehow.
Like @Mr Ferret 88...!!!

Good morning everyone. This is the new (free) watch I picked out for me.View attachment 202860

I used to eat pickles for a snack, until my 9th grade science teacher said they make your hair fall out!

Based on what?!
I don't ever remember hearin' that one from any science teacher, Bill Nye, or even a grandparent , for that matter. I eat the heck outta' pickles and still have a full head of hair...9th grade science teachers...!
