I've talked to a couple of them, and they can't explain why they can't get it either. Specks is an unbelieveable distributor. They have almost anything you could possibly want to destroy your brain cells with, and even they can't get it.

The amazing thing about Jim is he is the same guy today as when I first met him. Pretty down to earth, funny, smart and caring. I ran into him at EPCOT a couple of days after his arrival as VP. He was with some other exec types but he just stopped his conversation with them, walked up to me and said "Can you imagine?" and I said "They'll promote anyone". He laughed and said "Thats for damn sure." Even today if he is in my area he stops and chats. Great guy. I would be surprised if he takes the package. He loves Disney, he has small kids and I dont get the impression he is looking to move anywhere.

Originally Posted By sjhym33 I havent met a Disney executive of late who isnt frustrated by those above them. Everyone is under enormouse pressure about budgets, hours and costs. I think he has been through worse over the years. Meg seems to like him.

Originally Posted By vbdad55 I'm not sure Disney corp has ever presented itself that way either - it's us fans who want to believe they are somehow different in the big buildings - and cubicles- truth is - except for the creative people, they're not.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros "Come on Ferret, you mean you didn't watch Monty Python, and then swear you've never seen one episode" I've seen the Holy Grail, but that's it. It's decent enough (quotable beyond belief), but nothing that really interests me enough to go find more of their stuff. I've heard that Life of Brian is pretty good, so I think that would be my theoretical next step, if I ever have the urge to take one. And Monty Python aside, I just can't stand most British humor (or would it be humour?). Maybe I'm just a dumb American that doesn't get the references, but I like my dry humo(u)r to just be a little less...dry.
