    The podcast team hasn't done everything in WDW!?!

    My wife and I have been nine times and have yet to ride Kali River Rapids or the Liberty Square Riverboat. We try to do something new upon each visit but just haven't worked those two into the rotation, I guess.

    Sum of all thrills?

    My wife and I have been big fans since Sum of All Thrills was opened a couple of years ago. We always make it a point to ride a few times each trip, opting for the most flips possible (Flight Simulator).

    Oscars Won’t Perform Nominated Song From the ‘Muppets’

    Living in Memphis, I continue to be inundated with that song quite often despite my avoidance of rap at most costs. Three Six are still local heroes around here.

    All of the Texas Hill Country is absolutely gorgeous.

    Good things to do in Texas...

    My first trip to Houston, Texas had (HAD!) to include a trip over to Luckenbach for a day. My then-girlfriend/now-wife spent an afternoon there and we still generate people's jealousy whenever we talk about it. It was largely a symbolic gesture, as there isn't a whole lot to do once you're...

    I live in TN, and have a Korean daughter.....

    I live in Memphis in the heart of Mid-Town, considered the 'heart of weird' in the city and can assure you that there are a LOT of enlightened folks in the great state of TN. My wife and I are in Nashville a few dozen times a year for Predators hockey games and visiting friends and completely...

    Do you think Shrek will Cheapen the ICE! experience?

    I live in Memphis, TN and the closest Gaylord to me is The Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN. The "ICE!" events have been held there for several years now and they've always had a licensed character theme each year. One year, it was the Grinch. Another year it was "The Year Without Santa" and last...

    Price of Pop Going up at Disney

    I'd say that the practice of calling all soft drinks or sodas "Coke" is slowly fading in the South but still around. You can order a "Coke" in some restaurants and they'll ask you what kind or flavor. You'd then reply with "Sprite." I'm not defending the logic. That's just the way it is. Down...

    Price of Pop Going up at Disney

    Being from the South (where we call everything "Coke" or sometimes "soda"), I read the title of the thread and wondered why the rates at Pop Century would be increasing without the rest of the Value Resorts. :lmao:

    What has happened to the Travel Channel?

    I think the same thing about The History Channel. It used to consist of shows whose content was made up of (get this) HISTORICAL subject matter. Now it's made up of reality shows that might have a borderline historical connection. Most of the documentary style programs and specials are shown at...

    GKTW Meet: Tennessee, February 18, 2012

    We are too! We're Preds partial season ticket holders and we drive into Nashville from Memphis a couple of dozen times throughout the season. So a Nashville meetup wouldn't be a stretch for us.

    GKTW Meet: Tennessee, February 18, 2012

    My wife and I would be interested, as we're in Memphis, too.

    Major Netflix Changes Underway

    I think this price increase was predicted late last year when everyone realized how popular the streaming was and that Netflix secured the rights a few years ago for just a song from the major studios. When renegotiations came up with the first studio, everyone predicted the cost would be much...

    "How can you keep going back there?Haven't you seen it ALL 3x's over?" your response?

    Your FIRST trip? I'm so envious. I was 30 on my first visit and it truly surpassed my overly-inflated expectations. That was four years ago and my wife and I just made our sixth trip this past May. Have a great time!

    Toy Story 4....

    I haven't seen it yet, but it seems to be getting favorable reviews...

    Toy Story 4....

    One thing I've learned over the last 16 years is that you can completely trust Pixar to put out something worth seeing. If the story's not there, they won't move forward. They shelved "Newt" because they felt it was too similar to the recently released "Rio." That in itself shows integrity...

    Hockey in the World?

    Being a Western Conference guy (grew up a Blackhawks fan and switched allegiances to the Preds when they came into the leage in '98), I only have a passionate hatred for a couple of teams; the Ducks and the Stars. Getting to watch them as often as I have, I've always thought both of those teams...

    OT - I just had so much fun (NOT) with my iPad!

    Amen! This is the first time I have ever heard ANYONE express a hatred for iTunes that rivals mine. It's needlessly complicated when trying to sync any files for non-Apple usage and completely inconvenient when managing a music library (ripping existing collection for use on iPod or iPhone...
