Asking a Favor....

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.

That's right. He & wife were multi-tasking. ;) Imagine, he told me this in a PM. :D: Anyway..... I'm almost there DM. Spent 2 hrs shopping for perfect cards then went to park 4 hrs. TXT one of my best friends & she insisted she come help on her day off. :cool: She is a real Sweetheart. We got Strollers, Showcase,Embroid, Magic, all Emp., Candy, & Guide 2 before park closed. Will get eastside maybe today. Everyone was amazing!! They were all thrilled to sign FIL's cards. I found a MM dressed in an American Flag outfit. So fitting for a war hero. My friend even bought him a special Disney B D card. Has a B D pin on outside. Warning D M - the pin is FIL's. Keep your paws off. ;) Should have all in mail by 14th. Promise.

Words can not express how grateful I am to you all! I am thinking about how much this will mean to him(and us) that so many took their time to wish him Happy Birthday. Very overwhelming for all of us. :)
He will be bowled over by MM and Pin Card. I PROMISE NOT TO TOUCH! Only to admire,and Pictures will be taken and posted.
THANK YOU!!!!!
