No one SAID I hated tourists. I was making an illustration about the inappropriateness of the "seedy locals" comment. Are there not seedy tourists?

If you have such a disdain for locals, then please don't grace us with your presence in the future...

Seedier locals?? What is THAT supposed to mean? How about idiot tourists who think that their ____*t stops smelling just because they were able to take out a second mortgage on the trailer to come on vacation??!!

Aaron, once you purchase the "No Expiration" option, you are required to keep it on any future tickets upgrades that you may do. This means that in most cases, it is important to do your homework and make the best purchase decision the first time, instead of flying by the seat of one's pants...

You, ScrapIron, are BRILLIANT...and I don't mean that in the flippant, insincere, cheap b*st*rd Brit way, either! Keep up the great work! Remember that with common sense and sarcasm (not necessarily in that order,) all things are possible! =D

Again, nice ideas, but not happening. We will not see other "DVC style" resorts outside of existing Disney destinations (Orlando, Anaheim, etc.) This is why: Disney's Vero Beach Resort and Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort were created (well, other than to bring in cash flow) to give current...

It is going to be busy, period. I would also discount your theory that the locals being out of school is going to have an effect at Christmas time. All Florida Resident offers are blocked starting on the 18th, so only Annual and Premium Annual Passholders (not seasonal) will be able to get in...

Rather than comment on what I think of the concept of a teacher/nurse discount, I will just say that Disney does NOT offer any kind of an educator's discount, or any other type of career-based discount with the exception of military through Shades of Green, and some of the special promotions...

Isn't Spiderman just a souped-up version of DINOSAUR/Countdown to Extinction? Obviously different, but similar in terms of ride mechanics, IMHO.

What are AIs?

I suppose that it doesn't HURT to ask...but if you care about what other people think...to me...it's kindof like being a guest in someone's home. You can find a way to work it into the conversation, and maybe something nice will happen. If it does, great...if it doesn't, great. You're getting...

The official answer from Disney and Mears is to allow two to two-and-a-half hours from THE TIME YOUR PLANE LANDS until you arrive at your resort. Remember, you must de-plane, get your luggage, proceed to ground transportation to buy your Mears tickets or redeem your vouchers, line up and wait...

Contrary to popular opinion, there is no "no food" policy at WDW, other than possibly carrying outside food into a WDW dining location. The cooler policy is that it has to be something that one person can carry, and cannot contain any glass or any alcoholic beverages. They suggest (and prefer)...

STOLPORT to my knowledge is just a parking lot. It is on the right hand side of the road as you head toward Disney's Contemporary Resort. They usually park buses there, and sometimes use it for CM overflow parking.

I hate to say it, but thought after reading this thread is that...for all of us who have run into a less-than-perky CM out there, it's probably because they just got done dealing with Guests like StitchCrazy and DisneyFreak. I'm not saying it justifies such behavior, but as a CM sometimes you...
