Originally Posted By Inspector 57 Okay, okay, okay... I'm having a FANTASTIC vision of a GLORIOUS LaughingPlace production number to kick off the festivities! I KNOW this is last-minute, but...

First a spotlight goes up on Kyle and aj and holly and Jacob in Mouse Ears while a first-unseen choir (Autopia Deb, LVBelle, ajnhollysmommy) sing an ethereal version of the Space Mountain Theme, which morphs into a gospel-tinged "We Are Family." DLandJB and DLandDug come out and guide the guests in clapping and singing along. The song fades and the lights fade but the beat continues and then... friendofdd (motorcyclist), Kennesaw Tom (military guy), Johnny 626 (construction worker), Schmitty Good Vibes (leather guy) and alexbook (Starbucks guy) parade out and do a tightly-choreographed version of "In the LP." Before the applause for that segment fades, Ursula, 999HAUNTS, and Pirate Brittany stride out hand-in-hand to front-and-center. After AMAZINGLY humorous, history-filled, and touching banter about the significance of Disneyland and LP in their lives, they introduce... lesmisfan. A video screen descends and an image of lesmisfan comes on and he explains that he couldn't actually be there. But he introduces... iluvdland, who comes prancing out in a revealing-but-not-TOO-revealing Golden Palace showgirl costume and begins belting out "Be Our Guest"...

Riiiiiight! Like any of THAT is really going to happen as a result of people getting to know each other through a website. Sorry. What was I thinking?!

The rest of us will want photo-documentation of the activities of all you LP'ers lucky enough to be there! Have an LP-licscious time!!!

Who AM I going to have poilte dining banter with now? No one can replace you at that. And what!?!??! Nothing to mark the anniversary of the Pool joke...
