H e l l o Magic Kingdom, it is being reported at least ankle deep

That’s always fun. I remember taking my sneakers off at Epcot during a deluge. Water was definitely ankle deep.

Well, and then it's not really "rack rate". Rack Rate implies no discounts or promotions. If other companies can provide rooms at such low prices, why is the rack rate so high in the first place?

The only reason we upgraded one park pass to AP was for the hotel, merch, and dining discount. Now I am thinking it was a waste of money if I was able to find a cheaper then AP discount rate.

Damn, your old...!!!!!

Thanks for letting me know, however, there is a possibility that I was painfully aware of that already. In the classic words of the great Erma Bombeck, "The only reason I would take up jogging is so that I could hear heavy breathing again."

Oh, o.k. So what do you do with older kale then? Is that not good in salads, too?

You put the old stuff in aquariums to feed what they're meant to feed. That way they can die, with dignity, in their own habitat and not submerged in a vinegar based salad dressing. Sea vegetation have feelings too!

Do you get memory maker with your AP? That may add some value.

I have found sites like Orbitz often have pricing similar to the AP or FL resident discount, but not always.

Too young.

True, but, just look at the legacy he left behind, the memories, the joy and the name. That name recognized, mostly fondly, all over the planet. And all in 66 short years. He accomplished more in his first 20 years as an adult, then most have in our entire life. Amazing, isn't it!

Things happen for a reason. Sadly I feel that what he was focusing on, just before his death, would have destroyed the company and his legacy would have been thought of completely differently. As a person in the media of entertainment, he was a genius, that doesn't necessarily make him a long term thinker in deciding social control. Building a city is a far cry from building a theme park or animatronics. No one has since then picked up on the idea of controlled society other then people with less then admirable intentions.

Oh, no these didn't have potato in them. It was onions, carrots, and I'm not sure what. That's why it was so amusing. As though potatos were not vegan-friendly. It was like "Finally, vegans can have fries, too!" It didn't say that, but they don't have "vegan" stamped on any of their other types of fries.

Wouldn't that just mean not cooked in Animal Fat or does Vegan have a different set of requirements.

Cause one is desperate for a room, didn't make any reservations and are tired and ready to crash at whatever the cost. The price that you pay for not exploring your options and planning ahead. Of course, there could be other reasons why life caused you to need a place and it wasn't expected, but, that is how they make the extra money and the logic behind it.

Apparently there were big storms in Fort Lauderdale last night. (Yawn.)

Very interesting perspective.

My guess is that it is not cooked in animal fat, and that animal products are not cooked in the same fat it is cooked in.

1 more week until my trip to Rochester MN to hang out with 200 of my knitting friends. It's not Disney, but it's a solo trip for me!

Including the healthy foods. I just bought my first organic Strawberries today and paying double the price hit me hard. But every food has weed killer or pesticides in them.

It's more which pesticide and which weed killer
