Two things

[disneyfamily]

Just two quick observations,

1. How funny is it, that the name of the big giant balls they sell at WDW is " Balzak"

2. I consider myself a 100 % Disney geek ( and proud of it ), but I was at EPCOT this past weekend (8/24) and they were having a Disneyana Convention. Good Lord kids, there are some Disney Freaks out there. Scary

1. Not really funny... and I believe Disney did not call them that, that is what the maker named them.

2. Yes, the pin trading underground scares me.

Balzak

You may already know this and if you do then just ignore me.

Those balls are really big balloons in a cloth sack. The sack helps protect the balloon from popping. The sack was invented by a young girl who I believe was in her preteens. Needless to say she is a millionaire now.

Just a little info from someone who has too much useless knowledge floating around in his head.:lol:

The name is funny!

:wave: ACE

And don't bother buying the spare inner balloons, we did and when we needed to use one six months later they had all perished.

What's funny to me about the name is, in hip-hop lingo, another name for (mmmmmm how shall I put this) a man's most sensitive area, is the balzac.

I thought it was ball sack

Anywhoo, wasn't Balzac a writer? Probably spelled differently. I don't know. Ignore me, I'm tired.

 

[Yellow Shoes]

YES Balzac was a writer.

Don't you remember the scene in "The Music Man" where the townsfolk are up in arms that Marion's library contains volumes by Balzac?

 

[Erika]

YES! That's how I know the name :lol:

Pick-a-little, talk-a-little, Pick-a-little, talk-a-little, CHEEP CHEEP CHEEP Talk a lot, pick a little more...

Of course I shouldn't tell you this, but she advocates DIRTY BOOKS!
