Disney World PF Gathering and Tips for Disney Mania!

[ZapperZ]

Well in 6 flags{tx} someone was stupid enough to buy there kid a 6 ft bull whip. And then stupid enough not to watch him "play" with it. The person I was with, got it in the eye..two operations later, its hardly noticed.
And Cedar Point, the time the breaks failed on the Magnum...4 times around, then a rescue, which if you've never been rescued from a ride, is sort of cool.
Disney World, main street 1976. Happy Birthday America! Small exploding fireworks on a float, misfired into the crowd and hits my sister on the back of her head/shoulders, and her hair starts on fire!

lol still want me to come?

Er... since you put it THAT way, no. I want you to stay in Michigan! :)

Disney becomes the first major studio to support digital movie projection.

I hope they'll also release the highly anticipated Chicken Little that way.

I bought a few of these pins during the last WDW trip. I now wear it on my hat, I have one pinned to my work bag, and I'm thinking of putting it on a couple more items.

I love this pin! :)

That's cute. I think that would go well with the Bored Meeting pin. You can wear the Bored Meeting one and I can sit next to you wearing the Tinkerbell pin, and I think that should be enough to scare anyone into getting the meeting done as quickly as possible!

Just to remind you that I have also been known to wear my golden Mickey ears hat to my weekly group meeting. So unfortunately, these people are getting used to my "weird" obsession with Disney stuff. We need to do something a bit more outrageous to scare them.

This is a terric essay for people who look down on WDW's Magic Kingdom, especially those who take it for granted.

This is a really terrific upcomming pin. I like "happy" pins like this. With a limited edition of only 2000 and being released on the 22nd, I don't expect to be able to find anymore of this pin by Jan 1st. Oh well...

Here comes another Disney pin event!

The Spectacle of Pins 2005 at Disney/MGM Studios will focus on the Holiday festivities pins. A number of holiday season pins will be released at this event. If you are into holiday stuff, this is the one to attend since most of the pins will probably be gone by the time it is released to the general public (the pins appear to be in very limited quantities.

Ugh! They're giving away free lithographs at Disneyland to their Annual Passholders! From the Disneyland passholder website:

Drat!

You could go dressed as Pluto...remember he wears no pants

You're forgetting Donald! He wears a shirt, but no pants! :)

But here's something puzzling. If you look at the scenes where he steps out of a bath or shower, he usually wraps a towel around his waist! What's up with that??!

[hypatia]

Yes, it makes us tend to think donald has something to hide!

I never thought about that.

See, now you're beginning to realize what I find important in this world, Evo dear! :)

Speaking of what's important, I've made hotel reservations for Jan 1st to Jan 8th at WDW. So we're going for sure (103 more days and counting). So if and when you and Moonbie can decide if this trip is possible, let me know. I'd like to make dinner reservations while we're all there. We'll have our own PF gathering at Disney World. Other PF members are most welcome to join!

Oh no! I feel myself sinking...you've infected me! I just bought Disney pins for myself! I was visiting the Disney Store online, and saw a cute ornament and pin set on sale (Goofy all tangled up in Christmas lights on a Christmas tree), and then saw there was another Mickey one (not on sale of course). Seems I missed out on the Tinkerbell one before it sold out , and there was a fourth one that was the Nightmare Before Christmas, which is just ugly and you couldn't pay me to put that on my tree. I like Christmas ornaments, and these just came with pins, but I'll wear them at Christmas time too. But, then it gets worse! There was one more pin that I saw and just thought it was WAY too cute to pass up...Donald Duck hanging from a tree limb. Well, my one pin from ZZ was looking lonely so I got it some company. So now I'll have a Mickey and a Donald one (in non-Christmas ones). I think I'll explore some other Goofy and Minnie options, or a Pluto one, to have a set of 4 or 5 to put in a frame and display in my office. Just one pin looks funny, but a group of several will add some fun (and my office sure does need some brightening).

You've already booked the hotel for January?! I'm still working on my October and November travel plans!

 

[ZapperZ]

Bwhahahahahahah! You WILL be assimilated to the ways of the Mouse. Resistance is Futile!

That was just precious, Moonbie. That is how most of these things get started.

Is this the donald pin that you got, Moonbie? If it is, I have that one too! :)

Yep, that's the one! It was just too cute to pass up!

Another interesting trivia: Where was Walt Disney born?

You'll be surprised with the answer.

Tomorrow is the first day of Fall, so this pin is highly appropriate.

Might be better if Tinkerbell didn't look evil on that pin! What did they do to her?!

Maybe she's getting ready for Halloween? :)

I didn't even notice her "possessed" eyes till you mentioned it.

Yeah, creepy. Plus, the rest of the way she's posed makes me think it's a Tanya Harding pin rather than a Tinkerbell pin. She doesn't look delicate and fairy-like, she looks tough and ready for a fight!

Maybe that's because that pin is only being released at Disneyland! :)

Here is something less scary. This First Day of Autumn pin is being released at WDW. I would say this is a very CUTE pin.

OK, so Disneyland resort is getting all the "fun" this year (understandably - you only turn 50 once). This time, Honda is giving away a Honda Civic a day at the Disneyland theme park.

Can Mickey find his mojo at the box-office with Chicken Little?
