Amen on the spelling! That being said, I have to go with Thunderhawk at GL.

Seriously, it's about time. That sign is an eyesore.

Awesome TR Erik. -
I just got an email yesterday from Disney saying the preview for Disney Passholders will be held on Friday, Oct. 13th from 9-9. Pass holders may bring up to 3 non-passholder friends. Typical of my luck. I leave on the 15th....of course business brings me back on the 16th.....hmmmm.

I think we need to get Soren on the case and take some pics for TPR!

Then that is quite appropriate. I deem that appropriate behavior. Otherwise, I thought you caught some stranger doing something goofy, which is also not altogether bad! -
Ahhhh, four more weeks..... I heard The Living Seas rehab is almost done. Any news on that Soren?

What is that guy off to the left doing??? Actually he's more centered now that I look at it again... Great TR. Nothing better than Disney, than Disney with foreign chicks! -

Um no. Disney dumbed down everything when they moved stuff downstairs (as they have with most of Epcot). Imageworks took up the entire second floor with all sorts of stuff to "inspire your imagination." They had two or three areas that consisted of blue screens where you and a group would act out movie, walls with banks of computers where you could color pictures with touch pens (remember this was the 80's and cutting edge), an area where the floor was covered in lights and each light was and instrument note. Stepping on each light created a sound. Another music area that worked by sense of of light by using you hands, the higher you hand was over the light, the louder it got. And yes, they had two or three large pin tables that you could run your hand under. I know I'm missing more. It's a sorely missed part of the Imagination Pavilion, even if some of the activities were outdated.

My wife raves about it and some other Italian place from her time in Cincy. I don't get it. Freezer stuff is never even close to the real thing.....and White Castle sucks no matter what. I've never understood the fascination with it.

How sweet. I think I'm stearing clear of MS, should this reunion get messy. -
I had just gotten to work around 8AM, and was trying to read the Chicago Tribune's report on Michael Jordan returning to the Wizards. The site was taken horrendously long to load. I could barely get the home page open, which naturally had just a blurb on a plane hitting one of the towers. I figured it was some moronic private pilot that crashed his Cessna. All of sudden my boss goes running past pushing a TV cart down the hall. I figure we'd forgotten to set up one of the meeting rooms for someone, and we were going to hear about later, so I ran after her to help. By the time I got to the meeting room, she had the TV on. I just stood there in disbelief, especially when the second tower was hit. We stood and watched until the first tower collapsed. Corporate almost instantly issued the evacuation of the office and I headed off to the train station. Everyone's eyes seemed to be transfixed on the Sears Tower as they walked to where they had to go. The train station was mobbed and it took 2 hours to get home (and this was in Chicago).

I was thinking the same thing. Soren better get ready, there seems to be a TPR exodus to WDW in the next four to six weeks. Do we get to count Expedition Soren as a credit? -
I guess I pass. That game was one of my favorites.

Thanks for making me feel old... My buddy and I skipped out of our afternoon classes (Senior year in HS) Opening Day in 1993, so we could be one of the first on Batman. -
I had the 32X attachment. Top that craptastic add on.

Dude, rock that Genesis out! My Colecovision is still the bomb diggity. You're all jealous.

Photo TR: Julie and Kevin invade SoCal!
mcjaco replied to USRoadTripper's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
As usual Julie, a great TR. I'm taking notes for my future ones. -
Now you're talking! You should of all gone to a school without a football program, all we did was drink and watch whatever game was on!
-
And there you have it. I'm in total agreement on this one. Personally, I don't think there's enough talent to make every program in a conference a powerhouse, let alone make the conference the "be all" conference of the nation. Of course, this is coming from someone that attended a school with no football program, so what do I know?

Elissa stated in an earlier post (seriously, is anyone reading??) that she tends to check their Paypal account once every 24 hours. She will email you and verify that they've received it.
