As you can tell by my screen name, I am usually the one who pays for our pins! My DD started trading in 2002 and through the years I have found it harder and harder to trade away pins she has obtained. The memories attached are priceless so I just keep the pins and end up buying more! I have...

The farmer is not based on a fictional character, but on the imagineer's father. Imagineer and sculptor, Blaine Gibson, used his father, a farmer, as the model. Most of the time imagineers are not allowed to sign their work, so they find other ways to make it personal. Proud parent of a...

If you are doing the quick service thing, Pecos Bill's at MK has a terrific "fixings" bar with grilled onions, mushrooms, etc. just ask for an empty plate when you pick up your tray. Don't forget to check out the free drink samples at Club Cool in Epcot. I echo others about bringing in your...

I respectfully disagree. The moment she took off and left that young woman to die in the street, she was a killer. However, if Steve feels that the title is too opinionated, it will not offend me if he changes the wording.

Sorry about that, I guess it just hit home because my DD and some other CMs came upon the scene after the victim's body had been removed, but little markers were still all over the place. DD was so upset and with her being 1000 miles from home makes a momma a little anxious and angry at this...

So glad to see that they arrested this woman. My DD is a CP CM and this is a terrible thing to have happen in their little community. Although the report does not state the victim was a CM, she was. Sad tragic news...

Being a Louisianan means you are a "foodie" by default and being teachers on a shoestring budget, means we are also fast food experts!:lol: WDW's Quick Service is fantastic compared to any other fast food restaurant. We rarely eat at WDW's table service restaurants, but recently I took my niece...

Ditto! Proud Parent of a Spring Advantage CM at DAK!!!

I will be in WDW with my 70+ year old parents in three days. My dad has had a stroke and tires easily, Mom has degeneration of the macula, so yeah they will both be in wheelchairs pushed by my husband and me. Anyone can rent a wheelchair or scooter. If by doing so, you are more comfortable and...

My daughter is reporting to WDW Monday morning! I know that future employers look favorably if you have Disney on your resume. Since my daughter actually wants to work for Disney as a career, she thinks it is VERY worth it. lol She has already "met" her roomies via Skype and belongs to two or...

The tucked away tables on each side of the Dole Whip stand:slurp: Proud parent of a 2012 Spring Advantage CPCM Five more days until we are at WDW!!:sohappy:

Thank you for posting! I thought I was the only crazy teacher who ties nearly every lesson to Disney. I teach 8th grade language arts and social studies, so I go wild with it! Today, I gave a proofreading quiz and the first student who mentioned that the words "Proofreading Quiz" were typed in...

Always happy to see this caliber of person being "magically" escorted out of the parks!

Try www.okeydokeygoodies.com they are showing several Mad Hatter pins for sale (some pricier than others). The pins I saw offered were from the 1951 Alice in Wonderland, not the recent Alice with Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter. Proud parent of a Spring Advantage 2012 CPCM:sohappy:

Is there one pin in particular you are looking for? Proud parent of a Spring Advantage 2012 CPCM

While on Kilimanjaro Safari with several of my teenage students as we approached an OBVIOUSLY male elephant..... Little kid in front of us: Mommy why does that elephant have five legs? CM: (trying to cover up the awkward silence): Mother elephants have a gestation time of almost 2 years...

We have always missed this at WDW, but DH and I finally saw this at DL in July. I cried through the whole thing! My family and students always tease me for being a red, white and blue softie. I cry at the Hall of Presidents, American Adventure and anytime I hear the Voices of Liberty...

I feel the same way. My DD starts the Spring Advantage CP next month and intends to be a voluntEAR at one of the places where there are ill children visiting WDW. She knows there will be long work hours, CM-behind-the-scenes drama, backstage clutter and grumpy guests to deal with, but I don't...

Please, someone post a pic of the Pecos Bill's costume. DD starts the CP in Feb. in quick food service (her first choice of roles :shrug:). We have been torturing her by telling her that with her southern accent, she is headed straight to Pecos Bill's! Actually, we love Pecos Bill's especially...
