    Any Truth To This? 15 Month AP Renewal

    Renewed my Florida Resident annual pass today, knew nothing about this, was pleasantly surprised when I was told the new pass was good for 15 months. So I can definitively confirm that this is true. The pass I renewed today does not expire until November of 2010. Yay!

    Inline Skating Marathon??

    Yeah, it only happened for (I think) five years, and then was cancelled because it wasn't drawing enough competitors. I skated in it twice, and both times were a blast. Skating through the World Showcase was awesome. Great memories, I'm glad I had the opportunity to do it.

    Child with developmental delays

    Your son is exactly what the GAC is for. My son is autistic, and that card makes a huge difference. You should not feel guilty at all. The point is to make the trip as enjoyable as possible for your son, and the cast members will do everything they can to help with that. If you would like...

    Best Ride to Take a Nap

    I frequently take micro-naps on Snow White's Scary Adventures. Just pull down my ball cap over my eyes and relax. I truly have achieved the Zen of Snow White. (Note: your mileage may vary.)

    Children of the opposite ______ in restrooms

    I know you say the girl looked capable of using the restroom herself and/or waiting outside for dad, but it is possilbe she had a non-obvious impairment. If she was, for example, autistic then she might look completely normal and even appear normal to a casual observer, and yet not have the...

    Fantasyland Expansion Rumor

    Did someone say Snow White? Seriously, while were at SWSA today one of the CM's there was talking to me about the possible expansion. (Look at me, all cool, talking with acronyms! ;-) ) Obviously my son would be very upset if they took away the Snow White ride, but a Seven Dwarfs coaster...

    Dream Squad

    Well heck, I've never talked to Jim Hill personally. So I guess you get major geek cred from me on that count....:) Looks like Ben has discovered water slides in a big way, so his Snow White count might be slowing down as he spends more time at Blizzard Beach this summer. Which is way cool...

    Does this sound right? A medical/ethical question.

    Heh. I didn't see this until after I had posted. Thanks for the nice words.

    Does this sound right? A medical/ethical question.

    Wow. Just.... wow. You are certainly entitled to your opinion. Tell me, just how much time have you spent around autistic children? Do you have a child of your own who is autistic? Are you a medical professional who works with autistic children, or maybe a teacher who works with special...

    At WDW in the next week? Please support Autism Speaks

    Unfortunately, this is just good at the nine locations listed on the coupon. There may be similar promotions in other parts of the country, but I am not aware of them.

    At WDW in the next week? Please support Autism Speaks

    Hi. I don't know if this is appropriate for this forum or not, but I assume the moderators will move it or do whatever else is appropriate if I am overstepping my bounds. Many of you will recognize me as having an autistic son who has ridden Snow White's Scary Adventures more that two...

    Ever have anyting stolen while at the World?

    Sorry, I was overly cranky with that comment. As a matter of fact we were in the park today and had a great time, and interacted with many wonderful people - both cast members and guests. Ben has a new iPod now (it is more than just a toy, it's what helps him stay calm when things get too...

    Ever have anyting stolen while at the World?

    My (autistic) son lost his iPod at the Magic Kingdom the week before last. It was very clearly labeled with a sticker giving a phone number to call if it was found. Nobody turned it in to lost and found, and nobody called the number on the label. Apparently somebody picked up an iPod filled...
