Dis-Phillip....Dude, it's a joke. Knock off the self righteous attitude. No wonder we get the same old pixie dust<<<< Where the _____ am I going ecstatic? You are a class act, Con. Thanks for taking my words out of context. If you learned to READ, you would see that it's VERY possible to praise the queue changes and then discount the minimal work they did on the ride. You are delusional and a troll if you just take that, and attribute my whole attitude to that. That's faulty psychology, and I suggest you quit.

There are expansion pads for at least five WS pavilions when last I checked, but no one ever expects anything to happen. Countries and corporations won't put up money in these times. And Disney really doesn't seem to even care. The whole development of the EPCOT resort area and Buena Vista Drive made it impossible to ever double the size of WS as originally envisioned. Besides, they can't afford to put up Christmas lights. How can you expect them to actually add very costly projects?

That, plus coming to terms with type 2 diabetes and my wife asking what I want to eat on my birthday (hard), as well as my parent's financial crisis and the fact that 2 of my baby brothers (age 13 and 19) may be in wheelchairs within the next 5 - 10 years. Thank goodness for the National Health Service. Makes sleeping real hard right now.>> Dave, we really need to talk, soon! I'm sorry to hear about your bros. Financial hardship can be overcome in time (I know this!), but health of you and your loved ones are paramount! <<and back in the good old days, I would turn to Disney for some solace and relief, an escape from the real world, an organisation that when everyone else cheaped out and stopped taking risks, Disney would renew a lot of my faith in humanity. But like a fallen christian, Iger has desecrated the name of Disney and I will likely never feel the same again.>> Yeah. The Weatherman has completely worn out his welcome with me. He is a cold heartless CEO that is only interested in his power (did you read his Godfather-eseque quote on making Staggs and Rasulo 'offers they couldn't refuse'?) I'd really like to see him gone. But that's not going to happen. A friend ran into him last night at the LA premiere of Mary Poppins and said he was acting 'like he owned the world and was untouchable' ... very scary. <<My children fill the void, but sadly, I do not see them enough due to work committments and their bedtimes. And so I turn to the websites for a glimour of hope, when instead I ostricise myself from the fan communities for pointing out my disappointments with Disney. Alas, it's not healthy.>> Fan sites not healthy? What do you mean? It's only 2:37 a.m. in the Eastern USA, I've worked most of the afternoon and night and instead of sleeping, exercise or looking at porn, I'm posting about Disney. YOU TELL ME HOW THAT'S NOT HEALTHY!!!?!?!?!?! <<Spose it could be worse, I could be taking 300-500 pictures of theme parks on demand each hour or something?>> Nah. That's what we have Little Miss Sunshine for. Too bad there's no more DVC construction going on. But there are new urinals in Tomorrowland that are begging for a photo spread!

And I'm hoping that with George K off to figurehead DLR for a few years before he retires, DLP may move away from the WDW style of operation that he brought. Although Gas is no winner, except in the looks department where he is one good-looking dude (no sexual references should be read into that).

He believes Disney can do no wrong, and it's his business if he thinks that way. They do not allow political post over there as well as here on LP. There is no place for them in a forum about WDW.<< <<Well he has made numerous political posts and others including WDW1974 sometimes injects politics into his posts as well. So you clearly dont pay attention when your on WDWmagic >> Hey, dude, don't be dissing Pierce. Have some respect for your elders (and he is OLD!) And me and politics??!? You got the wrong Spirit. I hate politics. But I did just shut the teevee off after watching Oprah with my beloved Sarah. Maybe Todd will have a snowmobile accident, while attempting to avoid a moose?

'Cause I've never read a post by you in any thread I haven't been in. Just wondering. Oh, and you're a dumb poopy-head and I hope you spill coffee on your privates. Very hot coffee!
Originally Posted By figment1986 Amazing how after disappearing from LP for a while you notice things never change all that much...

The same feels like for upgrades / rehabs, Sure space mountain was mostly technical but there was potential for more show as well...

Nicely done Mr. Spirit.>> Honestly, if I can make someone smile, I do feel like I've accomplished something ... so I hope I'm doing it now. ~It's Time to Remember The Spirit!~
