A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

One of the lovely things about this board is that we hardly ever stay on topic; therefore, don't get your panties in a twist.

I used to love that about the Disney Channel - when they would run snippits about the parks (
way before MGM and AK); I used to love those and drink them in (I am so dating myself here). That was one of the things that made me want to visit the parks so much.

I remember watching the show (played over and over again) about the Living Sea's being built. The time lapse was one of my favorite parts. I couldn't wait to see it. Fast forward to young adulthood, and visiting Epcot and seeing it for the first time. My childhood came back for that short time. One day I'll go diving there...one day...

Excuse you. I am not getting my "panties in a twist" I just asked a quested and expected an answer. But when a thread gets off track as this one has, then the chances of getting an answer go right out the window.
So sorry for asking a question.

The question you asked was answered though...at the beginning of the thread, so I'm kinda confused as to what the problem is.
LadySiren did, however, ask another question that wasn't answered, maybe that's what you meant.

No the question was not answer since the person giving that answer was talking about the wrong thing.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here, (and probably get busted for it), LIGHTEN UP. Jeeze,with very few exceptions,almost 'all' threads go off in some weird tangent. Of course the ADD thread was made for that.
As why to they don't fly it any more, Maintence costs 'or' FAA certification. (Disney can get cheap sometimes)

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Um... I don't think an airplane is the same as a hot air balloon.
So when I asked about a hot air balloon and got an answer about an airplane, yes that's the wrong answer.
But never mind. It appears that people here are in their "moods" today so I will go find the answer somewhere else.
