Looking for Audio of Goofy singing Happy Birthday

I am editing a video for a birthday party for a friend and am looking for audio of Goofy singing Happy Birthday. I know there is a phone number on Disney property to hear that but don't have a way of ripping that as an .aiff (& I don't even know the phone number anyways). Does anyone by chance h...

Re: Disney profit drops 32% in quarter

a decline in DVD sales? gee maybe it's because they always seemed to be priced at $19.99 (higher at the parks) and never go on sale. There's no way I am spending that much on Wall-E! Let's not get started on how much it costs for a park ticket. Crickie! Over $140 for a Park hopper??? Just because th...

Re: Tips for Housekeeping

The whole tipping thing, not accepting tips as Cast Members, can seem iffy at times. I know the reason for it, it's supposed to be our pleasure to provide the magic and we're not working to look for tips. I'm all for that and agree with it. But if someone genuinely wants to tip us for a job well don...

Re: The Brazilian Tour Groups

plis...(meaning please) can you take us a picture? hey those brazilian groups seem to be a lot nicer this year so far. They seem to be a lot more receptive to Photopass and we're getting the opportunity to take more pictures of them, and a few brazilian families even purchased some photos at the cam...

Re: 50 Minutes for a Protein Spill? How 'bout 2 hours for trash cans?

Oh man, don't get me started on the lack of custodial efforts I see, or do not see, around Disney World. I used to work around the hub a lot and would work three to four hours at a time without ever seeing one custodial CM walk by to sweep up loose trash. I work mostly at Epcot now where I will work...

Re: It's Walt Disney World stupid...

I like it when people come to Typhoon and don't know why their Sea World tickets will not work in the turnstiles. I once worked the turn styles at Sea World when a group of guest tried to use their Disney tickets. They didn't understand the concept that Sea World was owned by a different company. I...

I get a real kick out of the Parents that watch their kids play with these things until it disconnects. Then wait until I will swoop down to fix it before telling their kid off about how they shouldn't play with it.

Re: Things to teach your child...

"Sit wherever you want to"... never mind that the orange cones are blocking off an area where somebody just had a protein spill. Sure go ahead and sit there stupid! "Smoke wherever you want to"... even though the tram and the monorail both inform you that there are designated smo...

Re: I'm afraid! LOL (Grad night)

Ah Grad Nights. The best way to get to know how smart our future generation is. It is amazing to me how kids can ask questions to the CMs but not actually stay there any longer than 2 seconds to hear the answer. In year's previous to 2006, I am guessing that Kodak used to give the kids free photos. ...

Re: Misunderstanding the Photo Process

Ah the Test Track Photopass system! Yes, that is brilliantly designed and imagineered by people who need to learn how to test what they design and build before they implement the system. It is 100% completely not Guest compatible. That's why there needs to be a Photopass photographer there at all ti...
