Commencement Notices 7/17

Okie dokie, since I fell asleep and totally blew the whole "Fabulous amazing Wand update thing" I figured some hard time having to navigate the comptroller's website should atleast soften the blow for folks were counting on those photos for their daily Epcot-geekism fix.

SSE is getting it's "Egress" ramp extened, so there's not a gap between it and vehicles:

MK is getting power plugs installed on the castle for the christmas lights:

SSE's "GRE" (I have no idea what that means):

Epcot's front entrance is moving around some security canopy's:

And something called "Tram route billboard package" at MGM:

Thanks for the update.

It's outstanding the rate that you churn these updates out!

Could GRE stand for "Greater Rider Experience?" "Ghost Raptor Expedition?" :lookaroun

I did some research on the Acronym dictionary:
Graduate Record Examination
Gamma Ray Explorer
Gas Release Event
Gecko Runtime Environment (Mozilla browser)
Generalized Ray Expansion (cavity analysis method)
Generic Routing Encapsulation
Getting Rid of Everything
Glass Reinforced Epoxy
Glucocorticoid Response Element
Government Reporting Entity
Gradient Echo (magnetic resonance)
Graphics Engine
Graphite Epoxy
Grass Roots Effort
Greco Research Engineering Company, Inc.
Greek
Ground Reconnaissance Equipment
Ground Runup Enclosure
GTK+ Runtime Environment
Guardian Royal Exchange (insurance)
Guardrail Enhancements

Do Disney enhance their guardrails?

Why, what are they doing with the wand? Painting it?

:lookaroun

Does an egress `ramp` sound strange for SSE? The gap between the vehicles has always been an issue at load and unload since `82, but surely it should read `widen turntable for egress` - a typo, or something deeper?

Let the conspiracy theories commence.

Wow, great news, on things not worth remembering :ROFLOL: .

I am so excited for christmas lights on the castle! :sohappy:

GRE must stand for Grand Removal of Eyesore, where eyesore = wand.

I am so excited for christmas lights on the castle! :sohappy:

This year will be our family's first visit to WDW during the Christmas season. (Nov. 25-Dec. 1) and I can't wait to see all of the lights!!! We usually go in October and see the Osborne lights being set up at MGM, now we get to see them lit! Yeah!

Merf, thanks for all of your updates. We really appreciate them. (And don't sweat missing the pic update yesterday, you've redeemed yourself!!!!:animwink: )
