Huzzah everyone! Did you hear there is no sampo?
Yeah, that's too bad.
No sampo aye? Bummer.
Let us be gay for he is a d*ckweed!

He failed to bring back the sampo,
Sampo!
And we shall die of starvation,
Sampo!

Failure! Failure!
He is such a failure
Failure! Failure!
One of us is a failure
Failure! Failure!
He is a failure! He's a failure!

He's such a stupid little failure!
He's such a stupid little failure!

He's a failure,
La la la la!
What a loser
La la la!
Total failure, failure, failure,
He's a failure la la la la!

La la he's a failure
He's a loser what a child!
Total failure a failure, failure
He's a failure LA LA LA LA!

Okay that's great, everyone please disperse!

I find your definition of "failed" curious at best. It suggests that anything that doesn't last forever (or as long as it possibly could have) is a failure. So the restaurant in my town that just closed after a 62 year run should be considered a failure. And mayor who didn't win re-election to his fifth term -- also a failure. And the Boeing 727, because they no longer make them. And Kiddieland in the next town over, the amusement park that will close after 80 years of operation this fall -- a failure. Odd.

Now, if what you actually meant to convey is that you believe things that close earlier than planned are by definition failures, that, at least, I understand. And then we can hypothesize about whether the attractions you mentioned closed earlier than planned.

Dude, it's all a joke. Lighten up. Well most of it anyway. OK, I was joking a couple times. But 20K really is a retention pond now.

Exactly. My biggest disappointment is I didn't inspire a "face palm". My favorite is the picard one.

Without failure, how would anyone recognize success? :lookaroun

In my case, just look in the mirror.

Well, as Travis pointed out, it really isn't, but that's not what I was contesting. However, if you are saying that "closed=failed" was meant as I joke, I'm satisfied.

Ummm...actually...while the site of the former lagoon is not, the area once occupied by the showbuilding is in fact a retention pond. Usually empty, but designed to catch runoff from that area of the property in the event of very heavy rains.
(I think you can see it from the Windows Live shots.)

Travis stands corrected! :lol:

If you're referring to the 20K lagoon, it's also the best place in the MK to watch fireworks when they shoot the perimeters!

About a few hundred yards.

I believe its part of a reciprocal agreement they have with the good folks in Lynchburg and offsetting it against my pounds.

Well, it feels, sounds, and looks much closer when you are in Fantsyland during the finale for Wishes!:lol:

Disney management is so dumb they would rather have the whole company go bankrupt than reopen AC.

Not to sound too harsh or mean (because it's not intended that way) but again like someone pointed out.. how does an independently owned store have anything to do with a night club... AC was only accessible with PAID admission to Pleasure Island and not with the FREE DTD marketplace or westside... I do to DTD to shop... and not to drink... honestly I have been to Disney at least 5 times a year since I was 11... so what... 18 years... and I have never ONCE paid to go to PI... so opening something that requires you to be legal drinking age will not SAVE the disney company or dtd from going bankrupt as you say...

The way I see it is that it is costing moe money now than ever. Renewing permits, liscences, and staying up to code for no revenue is a waste. They either need to tear it down, which I would rather them not because I want to go down for my 21st and enjoy it, if I can, or reopen it, which I hope they do. You may not have paid to go there, but many did and many will again if they get the chance.

I agree, I would pay to have it re-opened again. They are losing so much money just leaving the club closed meanwhile having to keep everything up to code. Plus with all these buildings closing, I can see Harley-Davidson or Curl closing soon because there just isn't anything in the area to draw them in.
