I'll be able to give a report on which (if any) monorails have lost the pre-1996 "D" logo when I return from WDW after my visit. :D:

Actually, the tracks at Disneyland are narrower. Capacity is lower and they require guests to remain sedated there, where here they can stand.

Several differences.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Sounds good to me! I flew from Chicago to Orlando once with a woman sitting next to Mr. Syndrone and I and her kids and DH in the row across. DH had purposely boozed himself into oblivious and she had doped the kids w/Benadryl. She yakked with us for the whole flight, while across the aisle they never stirred.

BW! You know that the experiment is confidential! How dare you blab about it! Mickey isn't going to be very happy with you because of this!


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

This may be my favorite typo ever.

It is a typo, right? BW? It's a typo, right? :)
