    Which months have you NOT visited WDW?

    The only month I haven't been to DW is Coviduary, which I define as a super-month 38 months long and there are no Saturdays!

    Flight Delays Impacting Vacations?

    The whole "Pilot Shortage" thing just doesn't make much sense to me. Just like ONE baby formula factory makes ALL the baby formula for the entire country? Clearly there is a supply and demand manipulation occurring. Airlines have been making money hand over fist since they started charging for...

    Are there really that many vloggers at the parks?

    I love this thread. Personally, I've been vlogging since the invention of the home movie camera. Got some great "historic saving for posterity" footage. Posterity could care less. Disney vlogging is a way to make easy money on YouTube. I've watched a few vloggers regularly and I find their...

    Dangerous Levels of Heat Index for Orlando (July 18 - Aug 3, 2022)

    Record heat all around the world, Lake Mead is almost dry, and Hoover Dam is close to not providing power, intensifying hurricanes, glaciers are melting, and people are fighting to see the fireworks show? I would think the latter is a real and true indication something is seriously wrong on the...

    "You Just Don't Like Change"

    So it's the intensity and quality of change that people don't like. Even those are all subject to personal interpretation. One thing is a given, change is happening everywhere all the time. From your personal life to your job to politics to economics to car models to the earth in general...

    News Another Fight at Magic Kingdom

    So what did the physical confrontation solve? People are banned and have to leave. Everyone's vacation is ruined. Anyone in the area has to explain to their kids why people are so violent and stupid. We seem to be more and more susceptible to go the low road. You know, lower on the brainstem and...

    Has anyone heard the story of the rider who stood up in the boat at the top of the falls to get a good picture and then fell out of the boat and was killed? Then there's the Thunder Mountain ride in Disneyland that uncoupled and the rear car plowed into the front car and killed someone. Or how...

    The Resort TV channel is going away

    Takes too much xtra money and too many extra people that costs too many extra dollars to churn out what is considered 80's cliche. I won't miss and yet I will.

    Speedway has got to go

    Autopia is OEM! They just need to convert to electric cars with a speaker in the back that plays a lawnmower engine sound track.

    What if you owned the Disney Parks?

    Oh, the things I'd do. However, the following probably applies to myself as well.....eventually, and that is: "Absolute power corrupts absolutely". None of us are impervious and that's a huge human flaw.

    New PeopleMover dialogue?

    "Paging Mr. Day, Mr. Tom Day"? Just doesn't have the snap like the old sound track. "Paging Mr. Swires, Mr. Lou Swires......zzzzz.......zzzzt.......pffft."

    Port Orleans vs Coronado Springs?

    Port Orleans (especially the better overhauled version)! Coronado, like The Caribbean is just waaaaaaaaaayyyyy too big and sprawling. If I wanted a commute, I'da stayed home. Once I stayed at the Carribbean and the clock at the front office was in a different time zone than my room.

    Fight over Disney fireworks show leaves woman suffering from a brain bleed. Happened on May 9th, finally was resolved.

    Fight over fireworks viewing spot ........... Really? When passions run high (over a spot to see fireworks) people check their intellectual brains at the door and it is then full-on medulla oblongata, hence the term going lower. When primal emotions and passions like this surface, all logical...

    What Happens to WDW / Disney Parks during a massive correction / recession?

    None of this is new territory for Disney or the country. I know, I've managed to live through these a few of them......................
