You remember, the show that replaced the Pocahontas Show?
And do you really call yourself self? ;) I usually leave that out in my internal monologue.
My alternate personalities have learned that if they aren't civil to one another, I won't let them out to play. :sparky:

Ah, that explains the variety of careers you seem to have had. ;)

Chip & Dale were the best characters at Chef Mickey's. The only draw for me to LTT was the characters and they are going from there.
Management is making it much easier for me not to spend money. Who do I send the thank you note to.

Does anyone know when they are ending character meals? We had three planned for this upcoming trip but we may try to get in a couple more if this is the case.

Here's some interesting thoughts on careers, prep school idiots, MBAs, changing government and anti God cigarettes.

Actually, Chip and Dale have been gone from CM for awhile. They were just removed from Cape May for Donald, though.

Well i am going to contact my "sources" and find out if it is going to be a permant removal of Char. or if its just for a time period... they made it sound like it was perminant...

On the same note.. and I know that youall will scream over this one... they have closed the fast pass service for the Stitch attraction for the next 365 days to help with a budget issue


Note from Big Wallaby - This guy snorts pixie dust! Ask me for details...

There was a time when Knott's Berry Farm was a great place to go to, after you'd gone to Disneyland. Then the Knott family sold it to Cedar Fair, and the place has gone to you-know-where since. Now it's a ghetto park that attracts gangbangers and disappointed tourists. I still remember being so upset when I had to tell guests that certain attractions, the main one being the Haunted Shack, and later the Original Berry Stand, are no more. Cedar Fair should be nicer to Knott's--it's their only park that's open year-round, and is thus their biggest moneymaker. But the place is so far gone, it's being powered by the energy produced from Walter and Cordelia Knott spinning in their graves.

One of my friend's from Georgia sent me an e-mail. Disney is building a Hawaiian time share on the main island. I also read that Disney is going to hire 1,000 employees for this. I read the price tag was in the range of $450,000. Who knows what the price will be for this place? :eek:
