    What is your pet's name and how did you choose it?

    Love the pictures of all the pooches and the unique names. Some of the dogs I have had have come with names and I did not change them. For example, Rocky was born with a tumor they had to remove. He was a fighter. He was a Golden Retriever and one beautiful dog!! The Golden we have now was...

    So whats the story behind your Dis name?

    I get called "Tinkerbell" a lot. I get called, "Stinkerbell," too, but I don't like that so much!! I am a huge Disney fan like most folks on this board. Thus, Tinkerfan1.

    Beach Towels - Bring Your Own?

    One of the gifts (ha, ha, it costs $15, I think) with purchase in the parks right now is a really cool beach towel. I can't remember how much the minimum purchase was but I love the beach towel!

    Anti-chafing techniques!

    My husband and two teenage sons swear by Body Glide as well. We have bought it in a couple different Sporting Goods stores here. We've been on multiple trips to Disney and wouldn't go there without it!

    Just Back From Vero & Poly

    We are going to Vero for the first time in a mont and a half so I enjoyed your post. The only thing I have booked is Shutters and I am not so sure about that. It is a brunch on Father's Day and then a Pirate's cookout the next night. I have teenage boys. Thoughts? Don't get me wrong, they are...

    My favorite things about DVC is?

    I love that we always have an excuse to go back to Disney World (not that I need one!!). Afterall, I certainly wouldn't want to let those points expire and go to waste... I love hearing, "Welcome Home!" I love being able to bring others and just spend time together. I just love the whole DVC...

    DVC Vinylmation!!

    I wish they would make the DVC items known and available to us DVCers, though, before they sell out!! Its sad that they show up on ebay for others before we are able to buy any for ourselves. Same for passholder items. It would be nice if that sort of a thing was offered in a mailing. DVC...

    WWYD: Short 3 Night Family Vacation to Disney

    If you have the money, I always think it is worth it just to get the Disney fix. A couple of days is better than no days! I enjoy just "being" there and soaking in the magic. Of course, the longer, the better. However, if you don't have much time, that's what you have to do. We did...

    Pick-a-Pearl for DD. Need suggestions for DS.....

    You could always risk getting him hooked on Vinylmations or Pin Trading, too. My family sure enjoys both of those. Very addictive, though.

    ABC News: Made In America Challenge

    We bought a set of glasses a while back from Costco for $19.99 JUST BECAUSE they were made in the USA and threw out our other glasses. It had 16 8 oz and 16 12 oz. I think that is a great price, too. I usually see quite a bit of Made in the USA and organic products at Costco. Of course...

    Annual Passes can be purchased at Resort!

    I am happy to hear this! It will be much more convenient for us to get the renewal at the hotel and I so much like the sturdier card better than the flimsy one they give you. Good point about mixing them up, though!

    I love Nerd Collection

    I didn't see this thread before I posted about the same series. I want to know how long they actually stay in the parks before they sell out there. We'd been watching this one for what we thought was pretty closely but...a day late and a dollar short, as the saying goes, and the Disney Store...

    Question about Vinylmations in Parks

    We are planning on going to Disney World in June. My DS collects vinylmations and has wanted some of the Nerds Rock series since before they ever got released. I saw them at the Disney Store (on line as we don't have one) but was unable to order one the first day I saw them. I checked again...

    How Disney Crazy are you??? A Test!!!

    Glad I made you feel better. I also agree with you here, too! You could add not only rooms in the house but drawers with clothing, towels, cups, mugs, utensils, etc.... Heck, what about naming of the animals? Kali (as in River Rapids) is the name of one of our dogs. In fact, if we'd had one...

    How Disney Crazy are you??? A Test!!!

    I think I'm the 3rd person with 11 points here. Wow, I'm surprised I'm only the 3rd person that crazy. I guess that is just so far!!! Great poll and a great group of which to be a member!!

    Mk opening question

    It really depends on the time of year and which park you are going to as well. The mad rush is always there when they immediately open, of course, but you also get on the rides much quicker when the park first opens.

    DVC Member Services - is there any COMPETENCE left???

    I don't want to jinx myself but I have always been so pleased with Disney's customer service. I have never had one complaint with the CMs. Guests, yes, CMs, no. The reservation process has been the same thus far. Plus, with DVC, it is so personalized, that has always been a bonus as well.
