It's when I hear that MILF may be headed to DL's T-land that I start growing concerned. Some of the LCI ... like MML ... Turtle Talk (even if I never want to see it) and Stitch Encounter at DSP ... projects are truly wonderful, I still worry. WDI gets stuck on tech these days (and actually going back many years now) and can't unstick things like an OCDer on 'Hoarders'.

Originally Posted By Disneymom443 He was out and working when I was there, but then again that was in October. He was fun to watch, a lot bigger then I thought.

Custom music, The Kids of the Kingdom could come out and sing a song... 'our family is growing perhaps without you knowing... la-la-la-la-la-laaaaaaaaa...' And then, they could trot out some of the more obscure characters that have been created over the past few years... - The 3 cows from 'Home on the Range' - The little costume maker from 'The Incredibles' - Members of the Robinson family - That weird shrimp/crustacean Muppet - That one black guy from 'Atlantis' - Balder the Brave, Torpedo, and Machine Man from the Marvel Superhero family Then, Disney can help guests at the park understand what exactly 'Disney' means in 2010.
