In that regard, the humor almost seems Muppets-like, which I think largely transcends different ages.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb No list, it's mostly case by case and the last few times at MK when we walked by CBJ he didn't want to go in and I didn't push it.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer I think the only ride I will refuse is The Seas, at this point. I miss TLS too much. :-(
