A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
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.

I will keep the offer standing and be ready to send you funding if you need it. Right now times are tight but not too tight. I only need for the month bread for mom and fresh veggies but she is not eating salads so we are fine. Calvin though wants more money for a trip but that will be less we owe him. Tax thing came so the house taxes will be caught up and magazines are almost caught up.
I am sure you will be with a job soon. If not a care package can be at your door in days.

This afternoon I was standing on the path heading to the gate by Pirates (I had just come onstage there) texting. It was raining so I was standing under my umbrella and I was told this by Captain Jack as he was heading backstage. I didn't even see him coming as I was focused on my texting so was a little surprised.
I remember the last time I did the "Walking in Walt's Footsteps" tour when it ended in the gallery just before they changed it into the dream suite we were eating lunch when he came up and had fun with the group. He seemed concerned about the cheesecake and was worried when he couldn't find any rum.
There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Sounds like a good Pirate. RUM, or lack therof, would be one of the first things that would cause a crew to let the Captain take a long walk on a short plank!!
hehehehehe
(I guess cheesecake COULD fit into that catagory!)

So you've got unscheduled down time?
The hubby says that, and we both say we hope you're back to 102 ASAP.

Ha ha, that's what I'm doing! Visiting SGT, that is. Haven't had much time to visit SGT since school started. It's good to catch up.

Oh no! Matterhorn!!! Feel better! *gentle hugs!*
This was a bad fall around here everybody kept getting sick even my hubby who usually shakes things off fought bronchitis for a month after two weeks getting over the flu! Take care- I wish I could beam you some homemade chicken soup!!!
Shorty I saw this:
"It's not good to get your compass wet, Mate."
This afternoon I was standing on the path heading to the gate by Pirates (I had just come onstage there) texting. It was raining so I was standing under my umbrella and I was told this by Captain Jack as he was heading backstage. I didn't even see him coming as I was focused on my texting so was a little surprised
ROFL!
Did I tell you what Jack said to me when we were there last time? I may have told you this so if so please ignore my repeated rambling.
That was the day we met you I think- we were in the park and I was wearing my Product Red shirt that says "Treasu(red)" on it and it was right after that guy got so mad at me in the queue at HM and made me cry (I couldn't see anything and was feeling for the wall and he thought I was trying to cut in front of him- I was trying not to get trampled by the people coming out of the stretching room behind us!) I was all sniffly still and we realized we'd missed the last Sparrow show of the day but hubby says to me, "It's almost over but I know just where Jack will run when he's done, let's go." and he parks my wheelchair away from Jack's exit point (so we weren't blocking him by any means) but he ran past us and just as he's about to disappear, I look up and say "Hi Jack!" and he skids to a stop, backs up a step, literally looks me over from head to toes, looks me right in the eye and points to me while giving me what I can only describe as
that look and says "I...will remember
you."
LOL
Made my whole day.
Now, in honor of the randomness of this thread I have only one thing to add...
