Oh this is so funny!! Jack and Walt would get along famously. Jack loves to make a MESS of everything; he thinks messes are fun games. What's more fun than messing up his own home? Messing up Walt's home! :p Oh boy, a new location for fun and an accomplice, too!!! :joyfull: :joyfull: :hilarious:

Disney would be stupid not to capitalize on Frozen when they've got this huge, excessively popular movie.

Seeing as how there's a beanie baby Olaf on my bed, an Elsa doll on my nightstand, an Elsa painting that I need to hang over spring break on my wall, an Olaf cutout from last year's Frozen Summer at DHS on top of my nightstand, and I'm wearing a Frozen t-shirt (more because it was clean than that they announced the sequel today...) it seems to work.

Hee hee . . . Disney loves you. :D As for me, I pretty much avoid the Frozen craze, but I have other attractions, etc., at WDW that I like. It's all a balancing act for me; I miss a lot of the earlier Epcot attractions for example, but I like other classics that are still around like Haunted Mansion, Peter Pan's Flight, and Space Mountain. Oh, have I mentioned that I love ALL the roller coasters in all the parks at WDW? have I mentioned that I love Animal Kingdom? (I just love critters!) :happy:

It's digital. I don't think it's 104. I ran 104 two years ago. I couldn't move, didn't want to watch TV, didn't want my phone/iPod/laptop...I was miserable. With that one, I had to take ibuprophen just to get the fever down. That was ridiculous

I normally run 97.2-97.8, so even 99 is high for me.

Everyone is different, and we all know what's correct for our own individual body temperature. But even 100 isn't really high, per se. Temperatures of 101-102 need to be monitored. Generally speaking, 103-104 and above needs to be watched very closely, and 104 -107 fall within the danger zone. Efforts need to be taken to reduce temperatures that high. (A doctor told me this a few years ago. It's a very general guideline only, keeping in mind the plethora of so many other important factors such as age, other compromising medical issues per individual, current medications, etc.) Lower fevers are the body's natural response to help you fight infections, and I've heard debates about whether the (lower) ones should just be left alone, and run their course.

In the show, the character, Walt, throws a pizza on the roof of his house after a fight with his wife. The show was filmed here in Albuquerque and the house that they used for Walt ' s house in the show is getting frequented by people wanting to throw pizzas on the roof to recreate that scene.
The woman who has owned the house for 40 years is upset because people trespass to do this in addition to trying to climb the fence to get in the backyard where a lot of scenes were shot for the show.
I saw this story on the local news last night.

Thank you.

Mine said just let it run its course. Also that you're still contagious as long as you're running one.

I only ever run 100. I have to be super sick to run anything higher.

It's not unusual to see gators wherever there is a body of water. That one is pretty big though. Just recently, they took a 13 footer (IIRC) from a lake in Tarpon Springs (just down the road from me).

Oh my gosh!!! I hope you don't go take a walk by yourself at night; I'd be scared that a gator might run after you!! :jawdrop: They're dark-colored and you might not see one at night. Oh, that brings me to another good thing about living up here in a snow area: gators think that snow is too cold, so they stay down South! :p :joyfull:

So, I invest a whole 25 minutes cooking up 5+ lbs of ground beef (no idea why I thought 5 kg yesterday) and everyone splits.

Son #1 - the birthday boy, borrowed my car and went out with friends. Says he'll eat leftovers tomorrow.
Son #2 - just got back from an in-car driving lesson and has no appetite until he smokes some you-know-what. (Lord, grant me the patience to not kill him, and a really good defence attorney if I do.)
And Adopted Son - went out, will be back at 9:30 and eat then.

So, there is no lovely presentation, no chopped up tomatoes and shredded lettuce in fancy bowls ... no effort whatsoever.

And, whatever Hubby did with his ....

Tomatoes, hot peppers and cheese, on a sesame seed roll, toasted. Pass!

Has anyone here seen a gator at WDW by the rivers? I haven't but I heard some have.

One time, while I was staying at Wilderness Lodge, I struck up a conversation with another guests. This guy told me that he was standing out on the wooden walkways, that eventually led to the dock where the boats came in (to take guests to MK). Anyway, he was up in the very early hours of the a.m. and it was still dark out. He was a smoker and went out there to have a puff. All of a sudden he heard something behind him and he saw a gator slither off the wooden walkway into the water! He completely freaked, threw the cigarette butt in the water as he ran for his life toward the main swimming pool area! (I told him he might want to consider quitting smoking after that!) ;)

Well, have never given it much thought. Very rare for gators to attack, unless you go swimming with them. I've seen plenty when camping. We have a couple of lakes in my community, but nobody ever seems to pay much attention to gators (if there is one around). Just like any other animal, they tend to avoid human contact, mostly.
p.s. There is NO good thing about snow...ever. Have I said I hate snow?
