Cool! Another in the law field! :D: I'm the file manager at my firm, what sort of law do you practice?

But, I digress...

I celebrated my 7th birthday at MK, and my 8th at Epcot. We were going to hit MGM for my 9th, but I was very ill and in the hospital. But even in ICU I got a visit from Mickey Mouse! :D:

Mostly municipal law -- I work for a mid-sized Texas city, a Dallas suburb.

Incidentally, and getting more OT by the moment, one of my regular "opponent" attorneys is also a Disney fan. It makes for an enjoyable time dealing with him, when we're not haggling over the actual details of a case! Would that more lawyers were Mouse-inspired.

I hear ya! I work in an older firm, we've been in Anchorage for almost 40 years, and we represent a lot of big companies up here. The president and head shareholder of the firm, (who I'll call Mr. B, LOL!) is kind of a grumpy old man type, you know? [He's from Texas, too, imagine that!] He never really speaks to me, he signs my paycheck and that's as far as it goes.

After I got back from DLR, Mr. B comes up to me and says, "Heard ya went to Disneyland!" I was like, "That's right. It was very nice!" He goes, "Remind me to tell you about the time I got thrown out of Disneyland!" I couldn't imagine Mr. B, with his three piece Armani suit getting tossed out of Disneyland for any reason whatsoever. It turns out when he was in high school him and his buddies put on their own talent show at the Silver Dollar Saloon. :D:

That must have been one helluva show, seeing as how the Silver Dollar Saloon is at Knott's! :D:

OMG!!! LMAO!!! I had no idea!! I just assumed it was something that wasn't at DLR anymore! But I am 150% SURE he told me he got thrown out of the Silver Dollar Saloon. That is too funny. :D:

The mind reels... Did he get thrown out of DLR and forget the name of the saloon? Or did he get thrown out of Knotts for being so, um, impaired that he thought he was a Disneyland??? :)

You know. I really have no idea whatsoever! He told me Disneyland, but, you know, he can be a bit flighty at times, so he might have forgotten where he was exactly!!! :D:

The usual one is about Toontown closing early for fireworks, my reason is not for safety reason (Firework fallout) but a very simple Disney reason. "Well Mickey's not there, he's getting ready for Fantasmic, you know pressing his robes, finding his clean gloves."

That's a cute idea. When the Mansion goes down I tell the guest "That Master Gracey is having a meeting with the ghosts and we're not sure how long it'll be till he's finished."

Back on topic. I've been asked many times in Adventureland "Are there different Aladdins, because he looks chubbier?"

My favorite in that with Mansion. Well right after we just started floating Leotta about 3 months later we had a problem with the projection for....THREE DAYS. So finally the lead tired of waiting for it to get fixed called us 101. So I am out front with another CM spieling we're down. His reason? "Madam Leotta has lost her head, we've turned all the lights on and are looking for it. Once she finds it we'll reopen."

I was laughing so hard I had to turn my back for 5 mins to regain my solomness.

LOL!! Oh that would be me but I couldn't turn away and laugh because I wouldn't be able to stop. Oh this one butler I work with is soo funny too.

The mansion was down because of a power outage. Well I'm just a guest hanging out waiting till they re-open and talking with greeter and end of the line greeter. Well I'm talking to a fellow maid and a guest comes up. The butler motioned he's got this and walked over to the guest.
Guest: Is the closed or something?
Butler: It is closed. (He said as if he were Prof. Snape)
Guest: Why? We came here just for that! Why is it closed?!
Butler: Because I knew you where coming? Or maybe because Master Gracey has left and the ghost have trashed the place? How should I know, I'm only a butler, sir.
