I told my kids (and my kids' friends) that Santa won't be bringing anyone a hoverboard because they have been banned on commercial airlines for fear of combustion and Santa is not willing to take that kind of chance on his sleigh.
What happens if one of their friends get one from Santa?

Sounds like prime conditions for "I hate this place" thoughts to form.

There are few rides with less than 30 minute waits - so it's not even like you can fastpass the bad ones and still hit a few short lines. Everything is long. Honestly, I can deal with long ride lines. I can't deal with long food lines. QS restaurants must be a disaster this week.

Saw the phase closing thread Steve posted (nothing yet) and it got me to thinking of wait times. For anyone interested:

TSMM: 225 minutes
RnRC: 65 minutes
Soarin: 140 minutes
Test Track: 150 minutes
Mission Space: 60 minutes
7DMT: 75 minutes
Peter Pan: 75 minutes
Space Mountain: 85 minutes
Kilaminjaro Safaris: 60 minutes

Everything else under an hour.
Those look like the lines the one year we went over Easter week. And it was only 10am down there when you posted this!

One year my uncle made us wait in a "15 minute" line for Jungle Cruise, but the line was backed out the queue and past the stairs that go down into the JC area. He swore the sign was correct. As the Disney "expert" of the group, I knew this was false. We ended up waiting 70 minutes. That same trip he made us wait in a 70 minute line for the Little Mermaid ride at MK. It was our first time on, and it wasn't worth the wait while we were hungry and hot.

Did you leave him at the hotel after that?

Did I miss which movie it actually was?

:hilarious: I never said. I think most everyone knows my favorite movie.
I generally tell people it's Goodfellas.
But Goodfellas is actually my real 2nd favorite movie.
My actually favorite movie is...
Dazed & Confused. But I don't tell people unless they know me well for fear of being unfairly judged.

No worries - that's one of my favorite movies, too! :D

Here's an interesting study. They compare dishonesty across countries by offering on-line survey respondents a few dollars if they report getting heads when they flip a coin. If people are all honest the % in each country reporting heads should be about 50%. In China it was over 80%.

http://www.usnews.com/news/articles...east-honest-countries-in-the-world-study-says

They did another version where you get the money if you report that you knew the answers to all 6 of these music-related questions, without looking them up.

1. Who wrote "Fur Elise"?
2. What is Lady Gaga's real first name?
3. Name the rock group Nirvana's drummer.
4. What year was Claude Debussy born?
5. How many valves are there on a standard modern trumpet?
6. Name the town and state where Michael Jackson was born.

The idea is that virtually no one would know the answers to all 6, so anyone saying they did was lying. Pretty much no one would know #4.

I knew 1, 3 and 6, but not 2, 4 or 5.

Reminds me of the promotion the Honest Tea company did a few years back where they set up un-manned stands in busy train stations in different cities with bottles of iced tea and a sign to take one for $1.00. Most honest (100%) - Alabama and Hawaii. Least honest (80%) - DC.
