Official SGT ADD thread
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.

Big Black garbage bags make the best luggage......LOL
We dont fly but I keep threatening Donnie with painting our Goodwill luggage (hey 5 bucks for a full set of American Tourister brand) with a bunch of Mickey Heads in Neon. At least we would give the baggage handlers at the hotels something to talk about.
On another note....I cant talk.....ARRRGHHHHH.. I hate when I lose my voice.

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
For easy to spot luggage I have you all beat. My luggage is silver in color, 6' long, 5' wide and 5' tall with red lights on it and a license plate. I tow it behind my car when I travel. :D: I don't fly when I travel, but I don't have to worry about how to get a few souveniers home. And there is enough room that I have recently added a microwave to my standard travel equipment. :D:vixen101485 wrote:Big Black garbage bags make the best luggage......LOL

Is it one of those cool little trailers with a bed and kitchen unit in it? I saw a special on the travel channel on them and they look really neato.
Re: Official SGT ADD thread
No. I built this trailer. I started with a bed frame. Then I welded up and bolted on an axle with heavy leaf springs. Bolted on a welded trailer tongue. Built a plywood and 2x4 box on top. A little bit of wiring and a couple lights, and I have a homemade "utility" trailer. I just replace the outside plywood skin every few years. It seams that I have to run through at least one driving rain storm every time I take the trailer out so the plywood skin only lasts a couple years. But since the entire skin is screwed on, it's easy to replace and spray paint silver.vixen101485 wrote:Is it one of those cool little trailers with a bed and kitchen unit in it?

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
On February 8th, I saw the Electric Light parade backstage, heading to where the floats are stored, lights off- no music. I yelled "YAY LIGHT PARADE!" When the Alice In Wonderland floats went by where I was walking heading back to the rear of Cocina Cucamonga in DCA... Suddenly I got a "WHOMMM" and a lit up snail turning to see me. I waved then yelled for the bee behind him to stop and then told the snail to hurry and catch up to the caterpillar so he wouldn't get in trouble. If anyone knows whomever was driving said snail, Thanks for the magical moment... I will also be making a comment later today at City Hall in Disneyland. It's my birthday...February 9th.
