Um, Vanellope von Schweetz from Ralph Breaks the Internet? I mean, who hasn't thought about that Princesses scene? When asked what she really wants, she doesn't say a Prince. She says a steering wheel, and means it. Of course, she also says that people DO expect her to be saved by a big, strong...

Sigh. 1) You're conflating mandates and lockdowns with vaccinations. We pretty much handled the reason why masking and lockdowns were needed early on in pandemic: because ICUs were being overwhelmed and PPE was in short supply; vaxxing fixed that, as did improvements in supply chains. Except...

To find out which ones are oldest, you should be able to check your magic bands in your MyDisneyExperience app profile. In the app home page, scroll down to My Profile, click on MagicBands & Cards, then Your MagicBands and Cards. Check the back of each band for the number. They should be in...

Not sure why you think the options are poor, unless you're referring only to character meal service, which traditionally doesn't have great food of any cuisine. Actually, you should have no trouble finding vegetarian food at most Disney outlets, including both table service and counter service...

Umm, ... guys, I think you may be talking about a different virus variant here than the screenshot in mickEblu's post (#557), shown again below. All y'all are talking about Delta. KTLA's screenshot is very clear that the variant it is describing is "Detla." Probably yet another mutation...

Not cancelling, but as someone else pointed out, since our trip is months away, everything will be different then. Besides, we never stopped wearing masks (by choice), so it's no big deal for us. You just need to find masks you can live with. In my case, it's American-made NIOSH-certified N95s...

From the biographic paragraph at the end of your post (I don't know what to call that paragraph): "I said I would be the Ellie to his Carl for life." Very nicely said.

"So much so that Jill started vacuuming for some reason." Loved that photo. [Picks up phone, and clicks on app to start up Roomba. ... 10 mins later, it's stuck under a chair.] At least it looks like she was having fun doing it.

"Many of us lurked or belonged to other forums before joining". Sometimes LONG before joining, including before this forum (and most fora) existed. [Remembers the original "sentinel chickens" episode in the 90's; Deb Wills, before she got famous, was mad at me for using that as a handle on an...

A wonderful TR, rain and all. And the emotions just came flooding through from the beginning to the "Last picture of this beautiful view! ❤️". Thanks.

For more information on this fascinating story, read the book "Storming the Kingdom" and google the Los Angeles Times article of the same name from 1987. There were a lot of things going on there, but if you're looking for the people who actually saved Disney from being broken up, you need to...

Yes, but the game had been pretty much forgotten recently. It involved much technology (including cameras to read the cards and the T-shirts, and curtains and other opening mechanisms to start each game session at the terminals hidden right there in plain sight), and to save money they...

The Fire Station had been the headquarters and training area for the interactive game "Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom," which shut down in late January. [Sheds a tear, and intends to pack my SotMK t-shirt that gave power-ups if you wore it while playing the game. Sheds another tear as I had to...

There was, and I visited it shortly before it closed many years ago, while I was taking a break from a conference. As others have said, nobody was there, and the place hadn't been kept up. The LBV DQ was far better.

There is much more to that absolutely fascinating story. Check out the book "Storming the Kingdom" and the LA Times article from the time with the same name. It is the story of how the Bass Brothers from Texas saved Disney (the company) from hostile takeovers (disclosure: at one point in my...

Oh, to still have hair to color. [Sigh]

Used a trash bag as a makeshift rain poncho. Dealt with a bee sting in the park. Made a server in Whispering Canyon cry by singing "It's a Small World." Used a Murphy bed in Ft. Wilderness. First used a turbo-flush in the middle of the night. Brought a complete set of Sorcerers of the Magic...

Ah, dress codes. Back in the 1960's, a time of upheaval in America, my friends and I successfully organized the public high school students of Los Angeles County against the dress code that prohibited girls' hems above the knee. Girls would have to kneel down and the vice-principal, usually...

These aren't all the breakfast options at DHS, just the ones with dishes on our list of options from the current listings: *Ronto Roasters, Galaxy’s Edge, Black Spire Outpost, counter: Morning Wrap (egg and sausage wrap in pita with peppercorn sauce) *Docking Bay 7 Food & Cargo, Galaxy’s Edge...

And kudos to Eileen Underwood for her comments in the official statement: “It has been an honor for our security cast to keep our flag flying every day over Magic Kingdom since the park first opened in 1971,” said Army veteran Eileen Underwood, Magic Kingdom’s senior security manager. “We were...
