Today's Thought
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.

Depends... I'd pay a lot more if they stocked Dublin Dr Pepper -- still made with pure cane sugar! Really good stuff.turkeyham wrote:If Disney parks sold Dr. Pepper, what would the price be for a bottle?

Or what about what the duck said when he bought a tube of Chapstick: "Just put it on my bill."drcorey wrote:if someone gave me a container of baby ducks,

Re: Today's Thought
A duck, a frog and a skunk went to the movies. Tickets were a dollar each. Who could get in and who couldn't?
The duck got in because he had a bill.
The frog got in because he had a greenback.
But the poor skunk couldn't get in because he had only a scent--and it was a bad one. :D:

A frog walks into a bank, and asks to see a personal banker.
He is shown to a desk: behind the desk sits a kindly-looking man, whose name plate says: "Mr. Whack".
"My name is Kermit Jagger", says the frog. "I'd like a loan please."
"How much?" replies the personal banker, in a thick Irish accent.
"£10,000", replies the frog.
"Well, if I'm going to loan you that much, I'll need come collateral. Are you a homeowner?"
"No, unfortunately not", replies the frog. "I rent."
"Well, do you have anything else of value?"
"Hmm", ponders the frog. "I do have this...", he says, as he produces a porcelain figurine from his pocket, in the shape of an elephant.
The banker is confused, as he can't see how it could possibly be valuable. But, not wanting to offend the frog, he asks him to wait for a minute while he goes to talk to the bank manager.
"Sir", he says. "I have a frog here called Kermit Jagger. He wants to borrow some money. Unfortunately, the only thing he can offer me is this white elephant. What should I do?"
The bank manager grins, and replies:
It's a knick-nack, Paddy Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a rolling stone!
