So Pete posted on Facebook he is working on "Project X". He also said "All I will say is that the people on my Facebook page will be the first to find out when it's ready :)" and "It's really pretty cool and no it doesn't have anything to do with California - well, not exactly. It does kind of, but not really." It has nothing to do with the Podcast cruise and he will be "milking this for a while" (must be taking taunting lessons from Kevin).
So what do you think Project X is?popcorn::

"It's really pretty cool and no it doesn't have anything to do with California - well, not exactly. It does kind of, but not really."
I have no idea what that could possibly mean. I wonder how long he will be "milking it". I want to know too.
I thought maybe it involved DLP but I can't imagine that having anything to do with California.

I hear it is a new fan club for the Dis. for $179.00 you get a Web Page to look at 4 times a year. A membership card a photo of Pete suitable for framing and the ability to buy special X merchandise. I like the Big Fig of Kevin looking down at the poor little crab cake for $500.00. Bowb dole whip cooler $250.00. I can't waite.

Don't you know with Disney - everything comes full circle back to California
And Paul totally hit the nail on the head!!!! I laughed so hard when I read that!

Wasn't "Project X" the name of WDW when Walt was creating and dreaming of the resort?
I think Pete's "Project X" is a DIS theme park including the "Bob Varley Studios Tour".
John will be at the entrance collecting admission.
Kevin will be in charge of the restaurant.
Corey will be in charge of entertainment.
Julie will take care of the Studio Store.
Walter will be in charge of the landscaping and give tours of the gardens.
Teresa will sell chocolates.
Kathy will take photos of all the guests and sell them at the exit.
The main attraction will be a show called "Pete's Rants."
Oh, and yes ... whatever it is, it will probably cost money.

Totally guessing, but I wonder if it could be something VMK-ish for the DIS? Pete loves video games, Animal Crossing, Kingdom Hearts and Disney. Only thing I'm sure there would be licensing issues...maybe a virtual DIS world? :confused3
Or it could be the Paris DL meet!
Either way, I'm sure the taunting will be merciless until Project X is unveiled.
Wonder if there is going to be a countdown clock and a promise of an email that will never come. :laughing:

Ahhh. I believe this must be what Kevin was taunting about in chat this week when he said something like "incredible things are coming" and wouldn't elaborate. Of course now he's sworn OFF of taunting supposedly. :rotfl:

Oh Kathy, you are very experienced at taunting. You have been doing it for a few years now. I wouldn't be surprised if you gave Kevin lessons! It is often we get an email with pictures from the parks that Kathy has taken that day. Of course she always tells us she goes for our benefit.:rolleyes:

At some point I'm going to have to learn to shut my mouth. I have to be honest. When I posted the update on my Facebook page "Working on Project X", I really did not think it would get this much attention. I've actually got people calling me and emailing me wanting to know what "Project X" is - including some of my friends at Disney (they get scared when I say I'm working on something they don't know about, and on this one, they probably should be). I'm loathe to 'over-hype' this by any means. It's just a project I've been working on for a few months now that definitely has a 'cool' factor to it, but really doesn't warrant all this focus. While I'm not ready to announce anything yet, I can promise you this will not involve thousands of dollars on your Visa card or anything like that.
With that said, we do have some things to announce on the cruise that will involve the use of your Visa cards, like the next podcast cruise (we'll actually announce that on our next show), as well as some other trips we're planning for later this year and next April (something that will coincide with Walter's 50th birthday - you can just imagine what I'll do to celebrate that!).
Just so you know, regarding "Project X" the first place I'm going to announce that is on my Facebook page - so if you haven't sent me a friend request, go do that now :)
Thanks,
Pete
P.S. I'm totally lying about Project X - it's going to be over the top outrageous.
P.P.S. - Not really, I'm just yanking your chain.
P.P.P.S - Seriously - it's really cool.

Now now, I have the real answer to what Project X is ~ seriously!
Pete has created a new 501(c)(3) charity. The IRS hasn't approved a name yet, so it's just called Project X.
It has two primary objectives:
1. Making sense out of decisions made by WDW management.
2. Forcing tourists to stay out of the damn lakes.
Sounds good to me!
I love a good tease. Can't wait to hear what it really is!

When you stated that you will announce Project X on Facebook being a good Disney Enabler I had to join Facebook. I was pleased to see it wouldn't cost me thousands of dollars. Then I read about more trips being announced on the cruise... I think I am going to have to change my Disboard name. I am not sure I am going to be able to keep up with what my husband will want to join in on.

It would amazing if it was a DLRP meet, I'd be there in a heartbeat, thank god for some of a student loan and interest free overdraft ;) And I'd get to go, since it wouldn't matter if I go by myself! We could set up an entire tour far better than the guided tours that disney do, since theres so many of us who know the parks!
Also, the VMK thing wouold be cool... and so is cake... hmmm... I could do with some cake... wonder where I could get a single slice round here...

I'm new to FB and I never thought to add you as a friend, Pete. Thought that was like stalking or something. I have the "I'm a fan of the Dis". I requested you as a friend.
I see that Corey is on FB but couldn't find Kevin or John. Well, I found several Kevin's and John's with the same name but don't think that it's them.
I also searched for a "fan of Dreams Unlimited Travel" because well I'm a huge fan.

Okay, so there is a Star Trek thread started by SpaceMtnFan and Pete was asked if he will be seeing the movie this weekend. His response was he will try since he will be "on location" this weekend working on Project X.
Come on Pete just a little hint about the project. Please, Please, Please!!!
I'll bring you unlimited cakes and pies, whatever you want! :laughing:
