    If they did pull out it might behoove Disney to do an arena style show of their own. I have always thought that DTD would have been a good home for a ligit theater that hosted a standing production of either Beauty and the Beast, Lion King or Mary Poppins.

    If it must be replaced someday I'd prefer it to be replaced by a new Franco Dragone creation.

    Keep Mickey and the comic book characters out of cirque.

    I'll third that.

    I don't read JH anymore but I BET he included lots of homespun terms that made him seem like Uncle Jesse from "The Dukes of Hazzard" and I'll wager tomorrow night's dinner that he referred to four weeks ago as, "Remember WAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY back in December?"

    It's FOUR WEEKS AGO D*****BAG!!!!!!!!


    AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH

    Sorry but THAT REALLY gets up my goat.
