    A Spirited Dirty Dozen ...

    As previously posted, I, and most older Disney World fans accept some change as necessary, but are also well aware of the tarnish on the Pixie Dust..

    A Spirited Dirty Dozen ...

    I mostly lurk, read and contemplate the various posts on this forum. I have been thinking about this for awhile and upon mourning the death of the Magic Kingdom's night time parade, I have decided it was time to post. If it had a title, I think it would be Tarnished Pixie Dust, It is no great...

    Paint the night is not moving to Disney World. Stop bumping this.

    I guess we're in the minority, but we liked both Spectromagic and the various versions of the Main Street Electric Parade. Each had it's own unique qualities and we would have a hard time choosing between them. To us the really sad part is that there will be no night parade at all. The night...

    So just how long have you been going to Disney World?

    Our first trip was in the summer of 1974. We were in our early forties with grade school and middle school aged children. Since then we have visited approximately every three years. Less when our children were in college and more when our grandchildren were young. Our children are now all in...

    Any damage at Vero or Hilton Head

    The web page for Disney's Vero Beach says it is expected to open tomorrow, Oct. 10th. The beach is probably a mess, but unless the waves punched a way through the dunes, the resort should be OK as it is reasonably high above the beach and is nestled behind tall dunes well stabilized with...

    Cracked.Com Article on Poor Guest Behavior

    Actually, that is not an ebike. It is a big, bad electric mobility scooter for two. They are close to being a two seater ebike in that many of them have a greater mileage range and can go about three times as fast as a normal one person mobility scooter. Even so, they are legally classified as...

    Biggest Disney Pet Peeve

    Other than rude, ignorant, discourteous people, my all time biggest pet peeve with Disney World is that if you want to eat at certain restaurants, go to a character meal or be on or at certain attractions other than first thing in the morning, you have to be on the computer and/or phone, to the...

    A Spirited Dirty Dozen ...

    I've said this before, but corporate Disney is a lot like the weather. It's going to do whatever it wants to do whether we like it or not.

    Biggest Disney Pet Peeve

    In addition to people stopping or standing in the middle of a walkway, how about the families who walk three to five abreast. They are like a dam on a river, you can't get by them.

    YesterEars Vintage Apparel Collection

    WOW! I usually enjoy your posts and read them with great interest. but this one seems somewhat over the top. I bought the X-S Tech shirt for some family members because we loved Alien Encounter. The pre show in the waiting area for this attraction was one of our absolute favorites because of...

    Warning... What I am about to theorize may not be popular.

    Upon reading various forums over the past few weeks about closing this or adding that, this is a subject to which I have given some thought. First of all , my husband and I are older than just about anyone posting on these forums. We were children of the tail end of the depression. When we...

    Scooter accident

    Sorry, no disrespect intended. I am intimately acquainted with mental disability in several of my contemporaries. Without trying to be disrespectful to what must be difficult for you and anyone else in that situation., it's just that when you are in a wheelchair people tend to treat you like you...

    Scooter accident

    There are three very large holes in your argument. First: Using your argument that dangerous things go away, no automobiles should be allowed anywhere. Second: Just what percentage of visitors to the Disney parks are actually injured by scooters? Going by what you read and listen to people's...

    Scooter accident

    Frankly, I find your argument puzzling. You perceive scooters to be a threat to your children, but you will not warn your children to watch out for them. You will warn them about streets, guns, snakes, pools and just about anything else that can possibly be dangerous, but not scooters. You...

    Scooter accident

    Deliver us from all those superior perfect entitled people who have all the answers and know just how all the rest of us should conduct our lives so that they are not inconvenienced or offended by us. I will continue to use my scooter at Disney and anywhere else I so choose.. Since it is not...

    Scooter accident

    Almost doesn't count. SERIOUSLY, who the heck are "these people"? Do you mean the 1% who are careless idiot drivers? Or are you talking about all of us who try very hard to be responsible drivers and due to mobility issues actually need a scooter to visit the Disney parks? The horse may be...
