Back in the day when I worked at 'The Park', I always used to get a giggle out of the parents who would put their child on a leash and walk around with them like pets. 2 children later and over 15 years of hearing stories of parents who should never have had children, I never leave the house without...

I think that was 85/86??? Hmmm...if Im remebering correctly, 'Totally Minnie' was the abomination that happened during that period then I cant recall if it was 'State Fair' or 'Blast To The Past ' that happened next....but I believe those events started in late '87 or early '88. I still have the em...

There are 2 old managerial theorems at work here: 1) Screw up and move up.... 2) Promote people into postions where they can do the least amount of damage. I vote for number 2 knowing that its the CMs that really run things at DL. I could count on one hand how many times my supervisors were actually...

The scary thing is that I work with a group of 'highly educated' laser technicians who can tell you all sorts of technical details about photon attenuation, RF conversion, and whatnot; however, they could not write a single simple sentence using proper grammar and spelling to save their lives. It is...

Man....ODV Yellows.... You would do anything short of killing your supervisor to get into yellows if you were in the park. Especially if you peeved off someone and sensed you were about to be sentenced to Bear Country....in those ultra cool inch thick felt pants, boots that only fit people with clov...

Sounds real shady....

Its probably not illegal....but from a business ethics standpoint its pretty shady. Sounds like he is trying to earn a commission on the financing.

You could; however, soak the sleeve in water....pack it in the dry ice of an ice cream wagon...and shatter the sleeve. ...

The Train Incident

Back in tha late 80s, we had a female cast member working a closing shift on what was then known as Popcorn 6. The wagon was supposed to close at 11:00 and she was to report back to the ODV office at 11:30. 11:30 rolls in.... 11:45.... 12:00... So we're sitting back in the office (behind what was th...
