The simple answer friends toss out (and I agree) is that simple people fear those who are more educated and worldly. To them, Walmart is more honest and real than some liberal Bostonian teaching economics at BU. They are ignorant and afraid of those who aren't. I admit I don't get it. It comes off to me like the middle school bullies who pick on the smart kids because intelligence isn't cool, ignorance is. Maybe that 'tude is why we're in the shape we are in today as a nation ...

Oprah has a campaign against texting and talking when driving that I hope wakes people up and saves some lives. I don't understand why people think they can do that ... but I admit I don't get most things about most people.

If it wasn't such a mess I wanted to pull her out and ask her what the F was that damn important ? Idiots. There are peope you see all the time driving and they are on the phone the entire time- short of a neurosurgeon giving instructions over the phone - who is that damn self important ?

Actually, I was a bit pissed when I typed this as I was actually going to respond to something you had written on MAGIC in driveby form. It was you basically (and rightly) setting fanbois straight on Mermaid and talking about the length of it as well as the concept I mentioned using Honey Hunt tech etc. I must have spent 15 minutes writing the thing (and I hardly ever devote that amount of time to a post) and I went to post it and (almost like it was Steve's magical dreams) the thing was vaporized. I took that as a sign (not that one was needed) that I shouldn't be wasting my time over there ... HINT ... HINT ... HINT ... HITS LEE AND HIS GIANT EGO WITH AN ANVIL! >>I'd call him simply a clown!<< <<Very funny. Can I borrow $20? ;-)>> Sure. You can borrow even more. Just contact my personal banker (hope he did drop dead today) Jamie Dimon! >>A clown wearing a circa 1998 AC tee!<< <<Guilty as charged. Goes well with my Project Strongarm hat, which nobody understands.>> You are so misunderstood. >>I like it when he wears the EPCOT ones.<< <<One. The EPCOT one. I don’t have two.>> Hmm ... I have two EPCOT tees right now that I am aware of (may have another hidden away). I have the one you have and the one sold on 10/1/07 that I once had an original of that was bought back in 10/82! >>You should tell him so, as he likely suffers from extreme low self-esteem.<< <<Sir…no time for low self-esteem when you suffer from an excess of awesomeness.>> I don't know. Frankly, I'm still trying to figure out what Mrs. Lee sees in you. Has she had her eyes checked in the last decade or so? >>I'm not sure I could spend 17 hours at any Disney theme park ... but rest assured if I could, it would not be the stalest MK of them all.<< <<Yep. 17 hours straight is a bit much. I’ve done DL from open to close….but that’s as close as I’ve gotten.>> I have opened and closed every single Disney theme park in the USA, Paris and China. That said, I'd never do it again at any of them. When they are new (or new to you) that's one thing. And while I could do a 9-midnight day at EPCOT and not be bored to tears, I'd really have to force myself to do many things just for the sake of it. Much better to do a 5 p.m.-midnight visit. And MK?!??! I just get so bored there after 4-5 hours. There's a whole lot of staleness and sameness there.

And people are dying as I type this because of their actions. I think it should be legal to shoot anyone you see texting or phoning while driving (although I think you can do that and get away with that in anything goes Florida!)

Originally Posted By leobloom <<Leo. Way back your posts use to really annoy me. But now you're a riot. >> Bobbelee, I think what happened was you allowed yourself to feel the love...of the restroom. It makes WDW a much more magical place when you aren't looking for "E-tickets" and conventional "attractions." My gosh, the urinals are attractions themselves! You should sneak into a men's restroom to check one out! >> Really? I used to think he was so full of (another word for pooh, but non-Disney and with an it at the end). Now, I know he is! << Just full of Disney's official Pixie Dust (comes in pill form and powder form) that I bought at the Emporium for $29.99. It was a little cheaper than the white pixie dust I bought from a guy on Orange Blossom Trail.
Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Umm Leo I think I might get in trouble if I checked out urinals. Bobbe is a nickname for Barbara. However I'm sure my son will be checking out a few men's rooms. So he can let me know.
Originally Posted By leobloom ^^I suspected that security might be called on you if you ventured into the men's restroom. But it's worth it. Just do it five minutes before closing!

TRUE STORY!
