    New CD set

    That's great...I had forgotten about that one. Those Sherman's liked their themes.

    New CD set

    Seeing the CD's made me think of an interesting bit of trivia with "When You Wish Upon a Star". My family and I are big Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) fans. He said he based 'Surfer Girl' on WYWUAS. If you try singing WYWUAS while Surfer Girl is playing the lyrics match up pretty well. Also try...

    If you could sponsor one ride

    As CEO of www.itats.org I would sponsor the Walt Disney Story. Hopefully Julie Andrews would plug us a bit towards the end of the movie.

    3 Questions for a Castmember...My Former Student works at WDW

    If you see Courtney be sure to say hello! She talks about how much she likes to hang out in the parks on her day off.

    What are they doing with Small World?

    I also heard they are putting the old nautilus subs in there. It will allow everyone to hear the fish singing in different languages.

    3 Questions for a Castmember...My Former Student works at WDW

    She emailed me a few days ago and told me that people were always stopping her to tell her she looks like Merida from Brave.

    I've come to the conclusion we'll have to change our tactics at Disney from now on.

    I'm optimistic that things will balance out with time.

    It's nice when you get a really good student. Now if she could only get me a discount into the parks.

    Same here...I can't imagine working in that weather through the summer.

    3 Questions for a Castmember...My Former Student works at WDW

    As many of you know I am a professor at a small liberal arts college in NC. One of my former students (Courtney) works in the costumes area at WDW. She is part of the costuming crew that works on the Move it! Shake it! Celebrate it! Street Party or the Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade. She is...

    You Hate Everything About It, Yet You Still Go

    A little off topic but I am intrigued by your Walt Disney comments. Although he is long gone I suspect that there are certain cultural aspects that have held on. I have the feeling that the Apple company will react much the same way to Steve Jobs being gone.

    McDonald's and Disney

    I come pretty clean with my Euro-McDonalds. For 15 summers I've taken groups of University students to Europe to paint and draw. It's a running joke that Prof. Ray-ray (their nickname for me) will run into Micky D's to get his ice. It's also part of my tourist speech-bathroom strategy as well...

    McDonald's and Disney

    Glad you liked them. They came out of someone sending me some photos of their travels. I rely on McDonalds in my summer travels in Europe since I miss ice the most and McDonald's is one of the places you can find it.

    What Castles Did the Imagineers Look at to Create Cinderella's Castle?

    Having spent my career in higher education the term 'party school' scares me.

    McDonald's and Disney

    I suppose that makes sense although I do see the irony of much of the food in WDW's fast food restaurants aren't exactly 'healthy'.

    McDonald's and Disney

    I've also noticed that the Disney fast food quality in some venues has declined a bit. Hoping that it will improve in the next couple of years.

    McDonald's and Disney

    Hi everyone, I was working on a post today on my site trying to find photos of unusual McDonald's locations around the world. Of course I plugged in a few that used to be located on Disney property but it led me to thinking about why the relationship split apart between McDonald's and DIsney...

    So, we are living in germany now....

    I would give it a weekend to three days. (Assuming you are a hard-core Disney person). I've stayed at a few of the Disney hotels but they are very pricy. It's very easy to stay in Paris and just take the TGV out each day and then you can enjoy what the city has to offer along with getting a...
