I mean people aren't stopping at TCC, they are continually moving so I'm thinking this catches your eye. Signed, Trail Mix

Instead of the "Best Kept Secret" billboard, they now have a three-dimension bus containing the Fab Five entolling the virtues of buying into DVC. It's cute, and reminds me of the Norman Rockwell bus trip drawing.
Originally Posted By alisserae The new DVC billboard came close to causing several accidents when it was being installed, folks were in such shock/awe (you pick) they forgot to pay attention to the road. Too bad the van doesn't have spinning rims, would've been the icing on the cake ;-) On a side note, we went to a DVC presentation last weekend, and were overwhelmingly impressed (25% CM discoutn didn't hurt either) I had high expectations and was floored by the whole experience, in a good way. Suffice it to say, we're by far the youngest DVC members our rep has ever signed. Yay! Sorry, that was longer than I intended. Back on topic now...

Yes, he is harsh, and yes, he is opinionated, and yes, he can be hard to take (and yes, I think he'd totally agree with all of these points!). When I first started to notice what you're noticing, I went head to head with him for a few weeks of violent confrontation before we grudgingly went back to our corners. And all the time people were jumping in and saying "oh, that's just the way he is!", which just poured more gas on the fire for me. Now we've developed a decent online relationship based on mutual respect and occasional agreement. I'm with you in that I just don't see the negatives that he sees, so I've decided that I'm not gonna let them influence me in any way. Our mutual friend WDW1974 (now playing on a mice-type chat site near you!) is the same way - quick to blast the problems with upkeep and cleanliness. But they are both also quick to praise, especially these days with Lasseter and Iger et al. So don't let my little buddy TDLFAN get you to - just give him a pat on his pointed little head and send him on his way with a knowing smile! And TDLFAN - dang you and your great photography! I'd just settled on the beautiful pic of Spaceship Earth and the fountain for my desktop, and then you go and take such great shots of IllumiNations, one of my favorite events on the planet! I guess I'll just have to start rotating desktops a bit quicker than before . . .

It's hard for me to understand him.. You click a thread to either be helpful or just to share the joy of Disney AND.. well you understand... I just try to block his comments out when I read a post, my doctor says I need to keep my blood pressure in check... Have A Disney Day... Mousy...
