When I pulled back on blogging and writing a few years ago, I stopped even commenting on boards. I did lurk, however, but I've been allowing myself to not obsess over every detail. Life simply got busy! That said, certainly I was tracking this story (predicted this RCID outcome, even, to a...

Why the topic switch to Champion's Gate??? :)

Actually, it's a really persistent urban legend that Disney doesn't pay for Coke products. They do. A friend of mine works for Coke and has seen the numbers.

Not to brazenly steal from the Tiki Room, but why not a version where the show is the constant, and the audience is moving? Could they craft a 7-minute show that allows for backstage social distancing, and then in the viewing area just thread a massive conga line. When the front of the line gets...

I have heard separately from here that Gary is actually Spirit's brother (which I didn't know existed). The last name is what I connected with, so that part of my post needs amending.

Whoa now. Sunday just got juicy!! Some facts: 1. I was Al's co-founder on MiceAge - I had a front row seat, so I know whereof I speak below. 2. It is true that Al has Parkinson's 3. I haven't written for MiceChat in a long time. Last I looked, they were using the name "MiceAge Update" rather...

Oh, I fully expect that's, uh, where we are. I just haven't heard what we'll look at as we *walk* out of the unload zone in the future....

I think we need to expect that the moving sidewalk is not returning. Hope you have pictures in the can already!

Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked. also wik.

The Brazil concept/hope/plan is quite real. I posted about it in early March: http://micechat.com/154385-kevin-yee-epcot-2-0/ What actually gets built is, of course, subject to a billion things in the interim. But this is NOT a fake blue-sky concept. It's been floated and seriously considered.

Two quick comments relating to things earlier in the thread: 1. The sunset lights at the Savannah are actually one of the things you see from the backstage side while driving out to the elephants. I enjoyed seeing that. 2. These jokes about restrooms and poop were actually related to what we...

Forgot to add that my skepticism at first was about the distance. You're closer than that at Busch Gardens, where you also have the luxury of staying as long as you want. But the animals simply behaved differently at DAK; it was more interesting. One hesitates to anthropomorphize, but they...

I found myself skeptical, but during a friends and family preview enjoyed it. Your new platform is behind the baobob where the elephant "bathing" pool is. We could see the trucks, so yes, they could see us. When we went, we had a good view of about five elephants, including the most recent...

This is a salient point that hasn't gotten a full answer that I've seen. Since Disney isn't storing fingerprints so much as a "hash" created by identifying key points on the fingerprint and/or bone and blood vessels (they've admitted to both at various points) and then dividing those lengths...

Don't think I have tried at that time slot, no. Interesting. It's not very crowded usually. A few years ago, there was enough wildlife here that I literally hit a wild boar with my car, and a few months later, got to watch a bald eagle 8 feet away from me guard its rabbit kill.
