We spent our anniversary in Disney this year. Fun to be celebrating something in Disney. We got a couple free deserts. And lots of good wishes. I'm 68, and I see you are too, when is your birthday? Mine is May 3.

My birthday is September the 4th. The very first time I ever went to WDW, was for my birthday. That was way back in 1997. I spent my 50th birthday in the Magic Kingdom, and had dinner at Ohana that night. Next year, I want to celebrate my 70th birthday at Disneyland.

Cool. Want to know something weird? I'm going to type it anyway....I have a couple of **** Dale's songs on my beachy songs playlist, and as I was reading your post one of his songs was playing.
You know, even at my age, it never ceases to amaze me that considering the violent, scary world we live in a "name" like Dick would offend anyone, even if it wasn't meant to be a name. We are a screwed up species.
Yet I got that other word through. Point proven!

I honestly believe its an imported or set filter to the website.
Think of it like the dictionaries in smartphones. You cannot load only a few words. You have to load the entire language in a single file.
So I suspect @wdwmagic was a big file containing all swearwords of all variants including those who might and not might be insults per se. (like when "crap" aka carp was blocked)

I like your plans, I will probably spend our 50th anniversary at DW. Going in late May and early June, with the kids and grandkids is so much fun. We bought DVC with an inheritance, plus some retirement money to stay 10 days every year. The kids love it and we do too. We had our anniversary dinner at Hoop De Doo Review. A really fun night!

From what I hear from my son in law, who was born and raised in Colorado Springs, being the high desert, there isn't near as much snow and cold as most places. I know the first winter he spent in Vermont he thought he had moved to the arctic circle.:cold::cold::joyfull:
Depends on the year and El Nino, or El Nina, we get lots of snow on El Nino years, not so much in El Nina. At least we know what to expect, generally. When I first moved out here over 20 years ago, I had a really deep tan by the end of March. I haven't been able to do that in the last several years. Things, are changing. We have been getting more snow in some years, and less in others. Like most of the U.S.

I'm sure of that, however, it still doesn't stop it from being ridiculous! Both the censoring (especially since this is based in GB that usually is so much more mature then we are here in the states) and the fact that anyone would think it needs censoring. I know this is a Disney based board, but, any kid that has reached 2nd grade has not only heard the language, but, has probably used those words. I doubt that there are many kids under the age of 10 that are reading these boards anyway. I'm not blaming WDWmagic, they have to keep everyone happy, it just seems so childish to worry about things like that when there are so many important and mean, nasty, hateful things being said in the media all day lately especially during an election year around here.
