Michael had/has a huge ego ... but so does The Weatherman ... and George Lucas ... and so many others. BTW, anyone read the New York Times piece on Iger that was 'placed' in the paper by Disney with Brooks 'Don't Go Believing My Made Up Backstory' Barnes getting the byline? Just saw it yesterday as it came out when I was at sea. Scary how things like that get placed, kinda like free advertising with the paper's seal of approval.

It would be fun to read though.

Originally Posted By Krankenstein I think the reason you aren't hearing anything about ST2 is because most of us are very satisfied with it.

You say you're as old as DL yet ironically, for that one sentence anyway you spelled like one of the so called "texting" generation. ; )
