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.

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

A number of years from now there will be a show on how he hasn't been out of his room for years, and is 600 pounds.
OR he will become an SG!
(or both!)

Aw, poor kid. Still, it's a little much to call steak your "hero".

Oh, DM you know Ernie too. :) :) How very cool.DisneyMom wrote:We LOVE Ernie, he was so kind and respectful to my FIL who had fought in the Korean War and was part of the "Frozen Chosin", a horrible part of the battle. The ceremony that day moved us all to tears, we'll never forget it.

We DO have pics of Ernie saluting my FIL, we'd love to see Ernie again next trip with him :)Main Streeter wrote:Oh, DM you know Ernie too. :) :) How very cool.I think almost everyone knows D L Security Officer Ernie. Ernie is my hero! Have been told he even has a fan club. Wouldn't surprise me at all. The Ernie you & Susi see at Flag Retreat is the real life Ernie. His walk, stance, military style, speech, smile, personality doesn't change much off stage. Well... he is more fun & has a very quick sense of humor, yet he is always kind & finds positives in most everything & everyone. Ernie believes so firmly in Flag Retreat & patriotism. He served in the Marine Corp for 22 years. He fought D L 15 years for the ceremony we see each day. Ernie methodically trains each officer chosen for Flag Retreat. No officer steps out unless Ernie feels the officer will do a perfect Flag Retreat. DM, If you bring your FIL again - plz pm me & I'll be sure Ernie is aware your FIL is at the flag pole. Ernie will stay for pics with your FIL & your entire family. My Disney Dream is to see Ernie get a window on Main Street overlooking the flag pole. He deserves this honor!

The timely pic is from today's Mice Age site.
