    POFQ refurbishments for some rooms starting soon:

    They did some major renovations about 5 years back or so. The rooms weren't musty anymore and the exterior repaints were brighter and landscaping was cut back some to make it less "dreary". Although a Bayou Cemetery was somewhat the original atmosphere. The Bayou area is really nice and they...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    I've always liked Eric Idle, but this rendition of Journey Into Imagination has been.......awful. Briefly cute and mildly amusing but a shadow of its former self. I'm sure they have all the original plans, drawings and drafts. Please, bring it back so we can all move on. The lines at this...

    Polynesian Resort.....The final nail in the coffin ?

    Just another Biff's Pleasure Palace on Disney property. They are ruining the resort by going too profit bearing. Soon they'll be just shy of the Strip in Vegas. When does Mickey's Cheese Casino get built? If true, it is just more disappointment on a pile of past piles.

    5th Gate for Disney World

    What was the name of the park in Virginia? Disney's America? How about GodBlessAmeripark©? No, the patriotic theming is tired. (ie Freedomland in New York, Great American Theme Park, etc., etc.) Or something real like Eatandspendalotwhiledrinkingingwine Park-shortened to EP? RetroDisney© -...

    Wastewater Treatment Plant

    Is it good to be well known?? Well, here we are almost 10 years later........ Unless done properly, CoGen can be messy and expensive basically cancelling out any savings as far as digester methane recovery. The GE picture I'm looking at still shows Disney's plane on property which dates it in...

    News Bob Iger is back! Chapek is out!!

    Oh, I forgot one more thing, Park Hopping, bring it back (Like Anne Heche in 6days/7nites requesting her money back from Harrison Ford) So will Disney tear my ticket in half?

    News Bob Iger is back! Chapek is out!!

    I wish for the old Figment Ride, Journey Into Imagination, restoration of the food plan, return of the Magical Express, resurrection of Horizons, return Test Track to original more-relevant ride, repaint those hideous, new Vegas-style casino hotels and the ever-elusive pipedream of lower prices...

    I injury at Raglan Road

    This is just like a Workers Comp case, you need to fill out paperwork even before you hit the floor! The accident/injury needs to be reported almost as it occurs. Never assume any time period elapsing is ok. When filling out the "Accident Report", the cause, liability and such will be figured...

    What is the best railroad train ride in a park in North America?

    I think Dollywood train ride is overrated. It rolls through the woods, basically. I think Disneyland is the better of all of these but my money is still on either Strasburg Railroad in Pa, or Durango-Silverton from the city of the former. Maybe not it parks but probably the best steam experience...

    Vloggers you like

    I much more prefer vloggers who don't preview Disney in every vlog. There are way too many other things to vlog in the real world. What annoys me more is that you know some of them receive benefits or preferential treatment to vlog the donators subject matter (generally theme parks), a sort of...

    News Another Fight at Magic Kingdom

    Again, in an effort to raise prices and keep out the "riff-raff" and "troublemakers" a huge ironic event is taking place: affluent and elitist America is filling the parks and they seem a bit full of pent up angry. I want to blame it on Covid and all the psych problems that came with it...

    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...
