Originally Posted By Ohana speaking for myself, sadness for the exiting Maliboomer does not equal sadness for everything. To me, Maliboomer was fun, a bit of a thrill, and great views. SSLimo had none of that for me. Also, SSLimo was eventually replaced with Monsters, which is a little better. Maliboomer is being replaced by no attraction. No point in that to me.

And how about that flimsy, shoddy hubcab centerpiece?! It too is finally -- finally! -- going to that big scrapyard in the sky: <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v647/dustysage/FridayVisions/2010/09-13-10/IMG_3745.jpg" target="_blank">http://img.photobucket.com/alb...3745.jpg</a> Meanwhile, going along for the ride to the great beyond is the silly, lifeless Bountiful Farm area: <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v647/dustysage/FridayVisions/2010/09-13-10/4981407721_1ab4e42cc3_b.jpg" target="_blank">http://img.photobucket.com/alb...c3_b.jpg</a> And the tiled walls at the entryway of the park, among other things that have been greeting visitors (and rather poorly), are now in the process of coming down too. It's just a shame all the debris from the demolition and dismantling work won't be trucked over to the homes of Michael Eisner and Barry Braverman as a fitting memento to their wonderful creativity and superb judgment.
