I hate when the sport journalists ask the competitors how they feel after they screw up. Specifically this time I am talking about skater Nathan Chen. He probably feels bad enough and then they ask stuff like what happened, how do you feel. I mean, really? How about how exciting for you to be at your first Olympics?

I didn't feel like dealing with the drowsiness with dramamine. I don't even enjoy it while I'm on it. Everyone else is like "Wow, cool!" I just feel dizzy the entire time and then can't walk straight after getting off, then comes the nausea. This time, it's stayed for hours after the ride, so much so that I skipped an Everest ride. Not worth it.

Thankfully, that shop at the end is the only shop I've seen in WDW other than the resorts that sells ginger ale. Gee, wonder why...

I really love Flight but I get what you are saying. I can't do Star Tours, Mission was never again long long ago and sadly Rockin was added to that list in 2014. If my DS is with us I'll shop while he rides. I can now only do Tower once a day. When Tower was back in the day one drop or 1.5 drops I was fine, some versions have so many quick up and downs I get brain slosh and I can only slosh once a day now and continue to function.

Agreed. A couple of months ago I bought some spaghetti-os (I know I probably spelled it wrong), because I thought it would be something good for a quick lunch. I was wrong.

I can still eat them with no problem (at least as of a year or two ago - the last time I had them). I always liked the ones with meatballs or franks in 'em...!!!

The meatball was the only thing edible in the spaghetti-o's.

Sometimes when I am cold at WDW I will buy a zipper hoodie. I tend to buy ones with meaning. Last fall I bought the Humphrey one while being captive at the WL during Hurricane Irma. At at least $60 they best be beloved.

This week while ripping through boxes looking for something in particular (I know where nothing is) I found 2 of my hoodies that have been missing in the mist for a while. One for our NYE Epcot for the turning of the new millennium and the other for WDW Leap Year inaugural 24 hour MK event. Note the jacket sold at the MK said Disneyland They had a Leap year event the same day.

That is terrible. I have found that I get over illnesses much quicker when I take the Vitamin C as I said before. 1000mg a day. Also Vitamin D3 at 5000iu a day. We do not get enough vitamin d in the winter so our immune systems don’t work as well, hence we get sick in the winter and not summer when we are out in the sun. Go to your local apothecary and get some or chemist or whatever you call them nowadays.

Yea, even down here I have a vitamin D deficiency, so I take 2000iu every day. I am light-skinned, color-wise anyway , so I never spent much time baking myself in the sun.
Vitamin D supplements...and, they're gummies, good...!!!

Have you ever played curling? I know that Canadians like it. I never saw it anywhere except on TV (years ago) when I saw Canadians play it. Didn't really get much of it--brooms and a stone with a handle on it. Like everything else, I'm sure there's skill involved though.

As far I know, curling is like throwing darts.

Except that instead of horizontally, you have to throw a stone to slide thru ice.. you have to have perfect aim, because both the opponent and your team can "broom" and "shave" the ice to make it melt and have less resistance.. therefore pushing the rock faster or direct it somewhere else.

Then you have to actually kick the opponent stones out of the circles and get yours as close as possible. The more centered, the more points you get.

And still haven’t received a call. C’mon what the heck is wring with people! They cannot just call back and make an appointment? Bet the darn thing works again the the morning.

Doesnt matter if it works, thats dangerous.. intermittent means there is a short or a faulty sensor somewhere.
Imagine if the temp sensor "went" and the faulty chip will let the sensor be in damaged while operating the oven. The temps would go beyond the scope causing a fire or even explosion.

Sadly, this is exactly why I hardly view news lately. They always HAVE to focus on the bad things to gather drama and/or morbid curiosity.

I don't wear any perfumes at all because of my asthma. I can do lotions with a mild scent, but I don't wear any perfume. My mom threw out her perfumes and hasn't bought any since.

I can walk in Norway for a few minutes to look at jewlery without getting tight. Italy I avoid entirely, as with one of the shops in France. Italy is by far the worst, though. I give that shop a wide bearth.

France really gets me in that wing. Norway is easy to avoid. Italy is really a skip-able pavilion. You're either there for the food or you can really take a pass as Food is the draw. If we are not dining there I can walk on bye.

As many of you may have heard, there was a rocket launched from Kennedy today. It could be seen from Epcot...

My twitter is 90% or better Disney related. A good chunk are local in one way or another, they tend to live and thrive there so their photo's and noticings are fun to follow. Their photos of the Rocket were awesome.
