Probably true, but Disney is very safety conscious and so mickey shaped safety glasses would be issued for sure. And think of the cool hardhats merchandizing would come up with (for a nominal fee, of course).

Nope. I have not seen any such complaint. (Yet.)bookbabe wrote:Wanna bet there's some SG posting over on Board X right now, complaining about how their vacation was ruined because they couldn't do their Pirate voyage, and it's all Disney's fault...?

:hysteria: I knew you'd say something like that, Zazu! Yeah, if I didn't live so far away, I'd be right over to help light--and aim--the fireworks, too! Of course you know that room would be uninhabitable for a while, but it would be soooo worth it!Zazu wrote:I think I could have offered to set off the fireworks inside their hotel room without sparking any interest.

I'd have been willing to pay the $500 smoking fee myself just to watch ... from a great distance!felinefan wrote: :hysteria: I knew you'd say something like that, Zazu!

Since that probably wouldn't have been good enough, how 'bout putting the fireworks in dads pants!?Zazu wrote:I think I could have offered to set off the fireworks inside their hotel room without sparking any interest.

Hi, Mouseshooter!
:waves:
Great to see a new face (avatar?) in the neighborhood! Welcome!
There used to be more of a formal welcoming committee here, but I haven't seen them in a while. I found this a very welcoming group in general, so I know everyone will make you feel at home with or without the official ceremonies.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Have you seen the radius of one of those 16-inch shells? It would have been inside dad's pants, and everyone else's, without special placement.Mouseshooter wrote:Since that probably wouldn't have been good enough, how 'bout putting the fireworks in dads pants!?
Then again, we would have to charge them the $500 fee for smoking in their room ... if we can find them!

[LEFT][font=Helvetica]The Armor Piercing (AP) shell fired by these guns is capable of penetrating nearly 30 feet (9 m) of concrete, depending upon the range and obliquity of impact. The High Capacity (HC) shell can create a crater 50 feet wide and 20 feet deep (15 x 6 m). During her deployment off Vietnam, USS New Jersey (BB-62) occasionally fired a single HC round into the jungle and so created a helicopter landing zone 200 yards (180 m) in diameter and defoliated trees for 300 yards (270 m) beyond that.
