[...and I am sure you will have some smart-a** answer for this post too.] No. U r providing the comedy relief for all of us.

As a Walt Disney Company Stockholder, I am confident that Disney and Imagineers will utilize there money in a wiser, more exhilarating way vs going back to the future and building a ride that had it's time. Whats next, OC...a petition for Pack Mules return?
Originally Posted By trekkeruss <<No. U r providing the comedy relief for all of us.>> Apparently your idea of a thorough conversation is to ignore the topis and make personal attack when you've been shown to be wrong. So this is where I bow out again. I'm not interested in a pointless discussion; I am here to have intelligent debate, which you are incapable of.

Which one seems more like a junior high poster? mousefun, I meant my compliment that you seem very knowledgeable about Disney parks. But you smother yourself with your idiotic antagonistic postings, making it hard for anyone to interact with you. oc_dean is continuing an interesting thread, and I and I'm sure many others are interested in the discussion. The only one causing trouble, the only one who will be increasingly ignored, is you, mousefun. Very sad.

And it's too bad kids of today won't get to experience the feeling of riding on an actual animal like that through that scenery. The mules were an excellent attraction. And I still think mousefun could simply be Themeparklover with a new name; if so (and the tone is soooo similar), he'll get himself booted eventually. Again.

Both being sleek mass transit systems. An interesting read.

It's becoming necessary to become inspired again, SOMEWHERE.
