If you're that rich hire a limo to follow you around.

I heard things like "just last week the monorails crashed and they needed firetrucks to get everyone out" or "a few days ago a monorail crashed and fell off the track and everyone died". So if they are that concerned about the monorail system then they can find another way to get to where they are going as far as I'm concerned. :mad:
I would like to say I participated in this activity, including being at Epcot today where there was an hour line to get food. Luckily I know how to use the exit and promptly ate at the boardwalk.
And hopefully Monorail_Red won't be greeting me anytime soon, but driving me.

Worst case scenario I have a loophole figured out.

Disneyland has been busy too. Big Thunder had a big line. It was ropped off and the line went along the trail towards Fantasyland. The SG claimed the lne was 35 minutes. Try again!

Also the SG claim that they can get 10 fasspasses and more. I believe you can get 3 max, depends where you are at.

The turkey carts, folks! That crew does not have the following food: ice cream, popcorn, churros, corn dogs, funnel cake, Pepsi products, beer and milk. Try to read the menu before bugging the cast members! :eek:

I'm sorry. But I just can't stop laughing at this mental picture

Had one family going from AK to SSR for dinner, bitched about the 20 minute wait at AK for a bus (Like I control how long they wait) then wanted me to bypass all the stops so they could get to their dinner ressie (what about all the other guests Mr. Bitchie pants). Bitched at his wife the entire trip and screamed at me (wait for it.... I spent all this money and demand a bus when I get to the bus stop) when I suggested that he did not follow the recommended 1 hour for Disney transport to get to a reservation.

He got really pissed when I finally stopped at the Springs and wished him to have a Magical Day.
Yikes! What a "lovely" guy.

Geeze, I don't understand the problem. I've been there over Christmas week and felt the park was kind of quiet and open. Never had any issues getting to any of the rides or attractions, short waits for food, never had any grumpy CM's or SG's to bother me (except for me, I just really love WDW).








Maybe because that week of Christmas was back in 75 kind-of helped to keep the lines down low????? :D:

At Knott's we have a company that provides us, among a few things, personalized ceramic mugs and they come on a weekly basis to stock and take orders. This company also provides DL with various personalized brass keychains and Soarin' pins.
Yesterday they were late coming to Knott's and said the reason was that it took longer than usual over at DL. It was wall to wall people!
As much as I would like to see Flag Retreat and Tiana's Showboat Revue, I think I will wait until next weekend when the Rose Parade/Bowl crowd leaves. (And before the BCS crowd comes in.)

One thing I did forget to mention!

So I was trying to get into Epcot one afternoon, and I was stopped by an undercover security officer when I was going through the no-bag entrance.

So he runs over to me and says "Sir my name is _____ from Disney Security, there's something on the back of your neck we're concerned about." :eek:

Well what happened was, the windbreaker that I was wearing...well I was wearing it over a collared shirt, and it got stuck under the collar of my windbreaker, apparently it appeared to security I was trying to sneak something in under my windbreaker. :rolleyes:

But after seeing that it was just my windbreaker resting on the top of my collar, he apologized to me and thanked me, but I thanked him because it's good that Disney Security is looking for something like that! :)
