Re: CM Tricks

js, check the bottom of any of your DLR receipts there is a # you can call for to order your wanted item. I actually did find it elsewhere, so it all worked out. In the end, none of the off-kilter information caused any real problems - i.e., I did find the dining queue for WOC, managed to grab a sp...

CM Tricks

This post may not win me any plaudits on this board, but I had some disappointing experiences with Disneyland CMs over the past week, and was curious whether I was just unlucky. (And I should note that these experiences were the exception - most experiences were good ones.) • Before arriving, I book...

Re: I wanna try something...

Among all cast members, those active on SGT are still a pretty small percentage. I've worn a large SGT button on my last several trips to both WDW and Disneyland, and the only comments I've had have been from those few SGT regulars I set out to meet. It wasn't SGT specific, and it was rather more n...

peopleofthepark.com

Not sure if this website is a good or bad development. On the plus side, it profiles stupid clothing choices. On the down side, some of the photos might be of people with legitimate mental problems. On the weird side, there's an assortment of hate mail which appears to include a high school girl pre...

When does a tattoo, by itself, become a SGT?

I have no principled objection to tattoos, but I'm always amazed by what people actually select to become a permanent part of their anatomy. Like a tattoo of a topless woman. On the thigh of the father (presumably) dining with his daughter. At the '50s Prime Time Cafe. I can only assume that "M...

Re: In the SG Mind: Field Trip = Chance to Make a Fool of One's School

When I was in Jr high, we did take a field trip to Knott's Berry Farm. We had to interview a cast member in the park and ask them a serries of questions. My group was sent to the Ghost town area. My friends were sent to the mock missions. After that, we did get to play in the park with my class. :D...

Seasonal Passholder Doesn't Read Rules, Doesn't Get Gift Card, Cries

So... It's Disney fault that the authorbought a seasonal pass, and didn't read the rules of the birthday promotion? And if his wife (almost) cries over a $69 gift card, how does she make it through an average week of challenges at home and work without collpasing into a heap of malfunctioning rubble...
