A Vacation From My Problems (A Sept. 2010 Trip Report) - COMPLETED 12/14

[afwdwfan]

Beverly: No, not as in the hillbillies. This may taste like Granny's medicine, but it won't heal ya.

 

[trennr]

Christmas Story...

Beverly: We Triple Dog Dare Ya!!!

Beverly: When Lifeboy isn't enough.

Beverly: You'll put your taste-bud's out kid!

 

[FreezinRafiki]

Beverly: Ever wonder what happens to the water when we shut down its a small world for cleaning? Neither do we.

Beverly: Because you need a permit to carry kerosene across state lines.

 

[MissLiz]

Another great episode!


I'm a Mission: Space wimp. I tried the orange side once and almost had to miss out on our Ohana dinner. Now it's green only! My oldest daughter has to ride with both my husband and I. She rides the orange side with him and the green with me. Every time she rides, she says "I don't see what the difference is. They feel the same to me!" Well, okay then.

She is also the big Mezzo Mix fan in our family. We have to hit Club Cool every time we walk by.

And how is this for good parenting? This last trip, she was being silly and she dropped a cup of Mezzo Mix on the floor of Club Cool. We had her clean it up because it was a mess and then, as a punishment, she had to drink a full sample cup of Beverly!



You would have thought we told her that our dogs had died!

Beverly: A glass or two does wonders for the attitude!

Beverly: When corporal punishment fails...

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

So much for getting any points with this update.

Glad your DD got her ride(s) on Soarin'! She looked quite happy in the picture! Poor Scotty... way to drag him on there!!!

We love Crush too! That is one witty turtle!

Dave looks happy after he rode TT... the during pic- not so much.

I haven't checked who guessed what quotes but I think I found one:
gave me her patented Stink-Eye ©- Juno or Old Dogs

Well, I was very proud of Dave. Not so much of Scotty. And if you're wondering, Dave did get a reward later for conquering his fears. I'll talk about that later.

Regarding Juno/Old Dogs: Haven't seen either one.

 

[PennyLane1084]

Sarah was up next. Now take a good look at my picture followed by hers, and tell me she's not my daughter:

Awesome! Like Father, like Daughter!

I love this picture. It's shot beautifully. Way to go Julie.

 

[that's nice]

Regarding Juno/Old Dogs: Haven't seen either one.

Check it out!!!! It is near the end (30 sec clip)

Beverly: Stay thirsty my friends.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Remember the Titans


Back to the Future. (1, 2 and 3. Do I get 3 points for that?)

+2

I think if you're going to get extra points, it has to be a higher degree of difficulty. That BTTF quote was a softball.

My wife is a social worker, specializing in children and families where there has been abuse and neglect. Neither she, nor I, see anything wrong with this.

Whew!

So, even people who live there can't find Delaware on a map? Whew, I don't feel so bad any more.

She gets lost on the way to the grocery store, too. (Hi Honey! )

Nice call holding these off of Facebook. The wait was certainly worth it.

Awesome water pictures! Julie did a nice job!

What can I say? She's good. I just love the joy on the kids' faces.

Nice update. Your daughter is certainly "your daughter." And she gets an A+ from me. Did Mission once and will NEVER do it again.

I still can't believe my Grumpy actually thought the Beverly was good.

I just don't understand the "no love for Figment." Granted...not as good as the first version, but this one is definitely better than the middle version.

Love the flashback and present fountain pictures.

Well, there are people that like brussels sprouts, too. I don't personally know any, but I hear they're out there.

And I agree that the current Imagination ride is better than the 2nd iteration, which was a disaster. But none of them have ever really grabbed me.

flux capacitor = Back to the Future

Editing to say "never mind" in my best Rosanne Rosannadanna voice.

(in my best Doc Brown voice): Great Scott! That was close!

...sitting on a beach, earning 20% = Die Hard

+1

Nice rally. You obviously know your Die Hard.

Dang it, I knew both of these, but I was a little late to the game!!!

I'm also trying to figure out the "when we last left our intrepid heroes." Rocky and Bullwinkle maybe???

+1

That was absolutely done in the style of the Rocky & Bullwinkle narrator.

"let me power up 1.21 gigawatts and set the flux capacitor"

Back to the Future?!? Please let me get at least one haha

Sorry...these guys are fast. It's almost like they'd rather play dumb movie quotes games instead of doing work or something.

When we last left our intrepid heroes...George of the Jungle or Dudley Doright.

Can you feel the love? ...Lion King

I gave the first one to Marv, but you did get The Lion King!

+1

 

[Shannon84]

I am LOVING everyones Beverly advertisements...This is a great way to start my friday at work

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Beverly: 23.7% more sanitary than toilet water!

I was too late for the quotes I knew so I figured I'd try to be the first one to jump on the Beverly bandwagon.

Never a bad idea...Looks like the quotes are gone already!

DARN! robbed again...thats what I get for taking a second to complete my work instead of answering right away great update...I will have to think of some Beverly advertisements later I LOVED the OLD figment ride...geez disney dont fix it if it ain't broke

On the other hand, if it is broke, please do fix it! (I'm looking at you, Stitch's Great Escape).

Another great update Captain! Loved the pictures of the kids playing with the fountains. And Beverly faces -- that never gets old!

Full credit to my wife, but I'm glad you liked the pictures! It's amazing how, with so many attractions, those simple fountains never fail to give us a great time. So many "little" things to love about Disney.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

nice update captain!!!! dd and i are green teamers ourselfs,well, she goes on orange with her cousin but when i go,she goes green. i go for the watermellon in clubcool. kids flyin in the air at the golfball!!

Thanks Dave! I think I will be perfectly satisfied staying on the green side. I've heard too many horror stories about friends who were done for the day after doing the orange side.

Another great episode!

I'm a Mission: Space wimp. I tried the orange side once and almost had to miss out on our Ohana dinner. Now it's green only! My oldest daughter has to ride with both my husband and I. She rides the orange side with him and the green with me. Every time she rides, she says "I don't see what the difference is. They feel the same to me!" Well, okay then.

I don't know whether to be amazed at your daughter or ashamed of my wussy-ness. Well, I'll have more wussy behavior later. FreezinRafiki is already waiting with insults ready.

She is also the big Mezzo Mix fan in our family. We have to hit Club Cool every time we walk by.

And how is this for good parenting? This last trip, she was being silly and she dropped a cup of Mezzo Mix on the floor of Club Cool. We had her clean it up because it was a mess and then, as a punishment, she had to drink a full sample cup of Beverly!

I thought there was an amendment in the Constitution against that!

Beverly: It's cruel AND unusual.

Whoops, I'll try and keep from entering my own contest. It's tempting, though.

Awesome! Like Father, like Daughter!

I love this picture. It's shot beautifully. Way to go Julie.

Glad you liked them!

Check it out!!!! It is near the end (30 sec clip)

I'll have to look at it when I get home (stupid work firewall ). But there might be a point coming your way!

Ok, now I have to get to work and come up with some better ones.... I laughed out loud at both of those.

Hilarious and highly descriptive, but I doubt seriously it would make a viable ad campaign, unless of course, you work for pepsi!!!!

I am LOVING everyones Beverly advertisements...This is a great way to start my friday at work

My goodness, some of these are hysterical. I don't often have good ideas, but this has been a ton of fun! Keep them coming! You have all week!

 

[afwdwfan]

Beverly: Bet ya can't drink just one!

 

[FreezinRafiki]

Beverly: Bet ya can't drink just one!

I think what you meant to say was Beverly: Bet ya can't finish just one!

 

[Emma's Dad]

Beverly: The reason dogs lick their butts.

Nate! I had prairie dogs popping up all over the office because of this one! BWaahahahahaha! I'm crying!

Beverly: The edible paint stripper.
Beverly: The taste that lasts longer... when you don't want it to.

 

[Emma's Dad]

Your DD and my DD would have fun playing around in the water together. Actually, my DD would much rather just spend the whole week at the resort pool! How many times did you hear "Can we go back to the pool now?"

We all enjoy the vomit-colored experience for Mission:Space. The first time DD rode it she couldn't reach the buttons and was FREAKING OUT! She thought we were going to crash. So... being the good dad that I am... I reached over and pressed her buttons for her. I'm not entirely sure what would have happened to her if the buttons did not get pushed, but I'm thinking a meltdown would have occurred.

I'm loving your TR! Way to keep everyone engaged!

Here are a few...

Beverly – For when you want to look like Gilbert Gottfried.

The first 5 letters of "Beverly" are also the first 5 letters of the word “beverage”. Yeah, that’s pretty much just a coincidence.

Beverly – The photographer’s friend.

Beverly – Endorsed by big brothers and practical-joking uncles everywhere.

Beverly – Don’t worry, your face won’t freeze like that.

Beverly – The Ipecac precursor that’s also a beverage.

Beverly – Not as obvious as sticking your finger down your throat.

It may take fewer facial muscles to smile than frown, but Beverly exercises them all!

Beverly – When Ipecac is a little too much.

Beverly – As seen on the Travel Channel (Okay, so it was “Bizarre Foods”. Cut us some slack).

Beverly – What you reach for when you don’t know any better.

Beverly – Your taste buds will thank you…for stopping.

Beverly – It’s a real palate cleanser.

Beverly – Because Comit could kill you.

No drink has more people saying, “Here. Try this.” than Beverly.

Beverly – Okay, so it takes a little getting used to.

Beverly – The sip you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

Beverly – So many uses: toilet cleanser, rust remover, and rumored to be edible.

Beverly – Endorsed by Survivorman and Andrew Zimmern.

Rearrange BEVERLY and you get “Very ble”, which is what you’ll say mid-sip.

Beverly – Your taste buds will forgive you….eventually.

Beverly – A favorite for hazing rituals since 1898.

Beverly – Proud sponsor of the 2012 Presidential Election.

 

[FreezinRafiki]

Well, I'll have more wussy behavior later. FreezinRafiki is already waiting with insults ready.

Good heavens, Glenn, when you're all done here, come spend a few of your spare moments using that Beverley in my toilet bowl. Looks like you have some extra time on your hands.

Beverly: For those who wonder what antifreeze tastes like but are afraid of the fatal side effects.
