When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
Of course I meant to include you.
Admittedly, you are a little less "out there" than the four aforementioned gentlemen.

What is the best fourth book in a trilogy? (I'm going to do this thread Jeopardy style)
Lol
Before I get to the big news, I just want to share that I have Stevie Nicks playing in my head on a continuous loop 24/7. It's because she guest starred on American Horror Story last Wednesday. Yes, it's been playing since last Wednesday. Haunting voice and that chorus "won't you be my lover..." Then she goes off in that very high pitch voice singing words I can't quite make out, but amazing, nonetheless.
Now the big news. What haven't you heard me talk about lately? (All together now) "Monorails!"
Yes, monorails. Not because it hasn't been on my mind, but because I've been busy designing my Master Plan. Last year, I uploaded a crude graphic of my bargain expansion plan. Since then, I've been quietly improving it, making it better and less expensive to build. Now, it's ready for prime time! It's a stroke of genius that accomplished many things for less in a thoughtful design that contributes more than simply transportation. To draw attention to the plan, I decided its presentation must be as entertaining as possible. It has to be audacious and ballsy. It has to prove to the people who believe I'm delusional that I'm way passed that - possibly certifiable.
The plan will be presented in a video I will upload to YouTube. In the video, you will see a replica of the Florida Project studio set Walt used in his EPCOT movie. Instead of seeing models and blueprint wall board schematics of EPCOT, you will see models and blueprint wall board schematics of my monorail plan. I'll even throw in pipe-dreams, such as my subway plan and other surprises. I will explain everything with a pointer, like Walt did, and impersonate him to the best of my ability. To really go over the edge, I'll even hint that I believe I'm Walt reincarnated!
It will sure the same people off who I've always ed off, while providing quality entertainment that inspires and enlightens (all at the same time) for the rest of us who dare to dream (and have a sense of humor as well)!

Sounds like you're putting a lot of work into this video. Good luck with your project. I'm sure many people will enjoy watching it.

Wow, I can't wait to see this!! When will this video be ready and posted?
Have no idea... Just got inspired to do it the other day. As I put it together, I will have an idea how long it will take and let everyone know. If putting the props together proves too time consuming, I'll just use a green screen and chrome in the Florida Project-like set.
I was worried that people here would take offense to the Walt Disney incarnated part of it... Shoooo. Thank God you all have a sense of humor! A little worried is an understatement... I was very worried to the point that I was scaried to come back on to see what the reaction was!

Only the real pixie dust snorters would have a problem with it, and who cares if they do. Just ignore it.

You can't walk away now......Bwahahaha!
I really feel sorry for them. Really. All the fun times... Moments they could have enjoyed themselves instead of being uptight and miserable... All those good times and all those laughs they've chosen to miss out on... I'm getting depressed (for them) thinking about it!
Attention all friends
Recently, I've been accused by some for making up conspiracy theories. First off, if I have a conspiracy theory to share, I would make that very clear in the post. Second, I have enough facts to make the biggest, craziest conspiracy EVER right now; but, I won't. Instead, I will tell you the FACTS - and you can come up with the conspiracy theory on your own!
FACT - My sister and I were planning on going to WDW last week.
FACT - A few months ago back I posted an idea I had at that time to go to WDW and take pics of the monorail footers that supposedly do not exist (but they do) backstage of Future World East. I postponed doing that for financial reasons.
FACT - I mentioned that footers was on the agenda for the trip last week, had I gone.
FACT - Rumors started here that I was planning on sneaking into CM areas guests are not allowed into.
FACT - Those rumors weren't true. My plan, which I never discussed here, was to try to photograph the footers from the outside speedway portion of Test Track, while actually on the ride. Nothing illegal or questionable. I may be crazy but I'm not stupid.
FACT - After eleven (11) years of membership here (since 2013) on wdwmagic forums, my account just stopped working (for the first time ever) the night before we (my sister and I) were going to leave to WDW. No error message. Just a blank white screen and no HTML - nothing.
FACT - I tried several different browsers, platforms, computers on different IP addresses and the same white screen when I try to log in.
FACT - The administrator here (who is doing a fantastic job and runs the best site on the Internet, by the way) says my ID is not blocked on his end and does not see a problem.
Who's blocking it? Why is it being blocked after 11 years here? Isn't it strange that it's being blocked the night before I was planning a trip to WDW (after not going there since 2006 and talking about it daily here)?
Hmm. No accusations. It's just a bit odd.

I suppose if we didn't know the facts, we could conjure up something, but I, for one told you a long time ago that Disney has never denied that they put some Monorail footings in place back when they built the Epcot extension. It was no secret, in fact, I'm pretty sure I saw it in an official Disney release. They did at one point plan on extending it to, at the very least, the next park which would have been DHS. By the time DHS was built they changed their minds and decided not to do that for whatever reason they had.
So you taking pictures of buried, which would be a trick by the way, monorail footers would be like coming back from a trip to Washington, DC and announcing that President Kennedy had been assassinated back in 1963. Old news Peter or Groxtak or whatever your flavor of the week is.
As for your account, who knows, maybe it died of boredom due to the lack of anything remotely interesting and new.
