Guest: Excuse me. Could you tell me where I can see the fireworks this evening?

Me:

This is where I usually, if I can see you're having fun and know what to expect, just happily answer, "Absolutely!" Then I wait and stare at you for about five seconds until you wonder if I am crazy. Either that, or I exclaim, "Absolutely!" and then change the topic to something completely different and see if they follow.

I love how people react to that!

Yes, I do get to answering their question very quickly after that.

And then I am sure many people catch on and laugh at themselves. Of course, I am also sure that this number is much smaller than it ought to be.

Have you ever told 'em, "Up in the sky!"?

All the time.

SG: "Where are the fireworks?"

Zazu: "Up in the air. Er... well, right now they're on the ground, but they'll be up in the air later.

"Oh wait, do you want to *see* the fireworks?"

Im afraid I can't let you see the fireworks right now. But if you wait until the scheduled 9:00 start time, wait for one to go off, you might see the shell on the way up if you look reeeeeeeeeealy carefully.

What?

I have seen SG ask the cast members where is Splash Mountain? My sister's answer was, "If there was a horrible earthquake, it would be in the parking structure." I was going to say the Esponade, and stopped.
