    Another Great Tree... But Where?

    I'm not sure if I should happy or terrified someone did this so well. :-) (though I suppose the ferns helped) Well, um, your turn I guess? Lee

    Another Great Tree... But Where?

    So people love the landscaping at WDW, and people love the Trivia Games on the board, and the Great Spot game is nearing 500 pages, so why not start identifying trees? <img src="http://www.missouri.edu/~llbb6d/picpage/pics/disney_05/tree.jpg" /> :p Lee

    Another Great Spot ...But Where?

    If Barnum doesn't have anything to put up, I took a couple of pics last time I was there for this very thread, am willing to share. Lee

    Monorail Pictures!

    you running IE? I had another page with issues in IE and wound up having to redo most of the page. It can be fixed but the pictures won't scale w/ screen size anymore, (I think). Lee

    Monorail Pictures!

    Hey, was at WDW in March this year, and finally began getting together my photos. The whole trip isn't up there yet but... for the monorail fantatics out there... check it out. (hmm, maybe I should have called the thread "MoNoRaIl XPA|\|SI0n, 4 R3ALZ"... ... good lord, that was...

    Changes to FASTPASS may be coming

    Well, people have a point that there is a risk of irritating/alienating people who save for 5 years to go on a Disney trip and then get the impression that others are "line-jumping." So just make the system low-key. Those who buy the perks get a regular paper fastpass to hand in for the...

    Monorail Expansion...maybe..

    I think a lot of the focus on the costs here is missing a major point which is that even if they were cheap, monorails are not best suited for the traffic flows of WDW. Traffic is not anywhere close to evenly dispursed between source-destination pairs (as it is, at least in general, for a...

    Monorail Expansion...maybe..

    Without delving into the details of all this... I'm just amazed, the thread has nearly 4 full pages in about 7 hours. Nothing gets people going like the Monorail, eh? As for those who are put off by the old-timers sayin "use the search function," perhaps a bit of explination is in order...

    The once-proposed St. Louis Disney theme park (from the 1960's)

    OOOOOh, that's be an awesome new ride! Maybe they can add it to a water park! Seriously, they have stuff on that at the MAC? I have connections there (not that I've ever, ya know, gone inside or anything) and he never once mentioned this to me. I'm quite dissapointed. I may have to see if I...

    The once-proposed St. Louis Disney theme park (from the 1960's)

    As a longtime resident of St. Louis I can tell ya that the Brewery holds SIGNIFICANT sway over local policies and politics, though less than it did during "Gussie's" reign (until the mid-80's). The brewery owns a ton of land downtown, is a major sponsor in just about anything happening in town...

    WDW busses to get GPS tracking system

    I think part of the confusion here is some people are talking about techonology as it is today and others are discussing what will LIKELY be around the corner. RFID (as I understand it, but I'm FAR from an expert) is not a penny per chip today, but most expect it to be there in the next 5-15...

    The Muppets

    I was a bit young when this happened, so my memory is a tab fuzzy, but here's what I recall... Shortly after Jim's death, they did a TV special to honor him. For the special, Brian did the voice of Kermit. I have no idea what the name of it was or on what network it aired at the time or...

    Fingerprinting at the Parks

    I was there last week and they were having everyone do the scan. However, if people had trouble fore more than about 10 seconds (after being told to "squeeze your fingers together"), the hit the button and waved them in. It did seem to slow the lines a bit, but even during a very busy time, the...

    Fingerprinting at the Parks

    Biometrics.... Not only do we have a government conspiracy to control our minds and monitor our entertainment, but now we're going to have those crazy actors in that cultish religion trying to sell us books with volcanos on the cover, just like th TV commercials. :lol:
