So using your logic, manners only need to be displayed in the "right" circumstances? Wow! WHO is to determine WHAT the "right" circumstances are? Do we need an entire new Emily Post book written on "the right circumstances to use your manners"?? I don't think so. In an ideal world, everyone...

FWIW, I hear you. I agree with you. Unfortunately, we are a minority on this thread, but not as a whole. And as in many cases, the minority opinion creates the biggest backlash. No temper tantrums to show my kids here either. Nobody in this house even knows I applied. You are correct...

Thanks so much for sharing your story and your input as well. That was so nice of you to take the time to do so. Many here have posted that feelings of rejection fuel my type of response. Some have said it's like the five stages of grief. lol. I speak only for myself when I say that this...

Yes, and I also want to reiterate the following in reference to the application process. They should have said something like..... "Do you have what it takes to be a member of the 2010 WDW Mom's Panel? Do you have vast experience with WDW and also use that knowledge by blogging or using other...

:scared1::scared1: I have to agree that it seems as if all good qualifying factors were dismissed if you didn't have a blog or Twitter. It seems that Leanne and Laura are really hung up on blogging and Twittering. THIS is what makes the best qualified panelist? You're right, they should...

:thumbsup2 Thanks Marshay! :goodvibes Continued best wishes to all 2nd rounders.

And I am also not trying to "damper" anyone's enthusiasm. Since the title of the thread is about those who have advanced, I was pointing out a common thread in many applicants submissions. Sorry, I thought my question about finalists who are on Facebook, or who Twitter or have blogs was...

In other words, you now have a blog and recently began Twittering? :) ;);) FWIW, I hope it IS you on a future panel!

I appreciate what you're saying. I think it was on the last Mom's Panel thread (??) where a past or current panel member said she devotes about 3-4 hrs. per week answering the questions. I could easily carve out that time to answer ques. in the two hrs. per day when ALL the kids are away at the...

Okay, so I am now certain that the decision makers for the Mom's Panel only view you as adequately qualified if you have a blog and/or Twitter. Or...at least for the most part. Too bad. I think many of us can say that we use technology to keep us current in our WDW knowledge. I know I...

Beautifully written. Thanks for this. :)

I just want to start out by saying that this is not sour grapes at all....I am truly so very happy for the fellow Disers who are moving on. :hug: This is more about a feeling I have. WDW is truly my happy place. This news makes me sad and now I associate that with WDW. This happened last year...

NOPE, NO email! So this happened to everyone who visited the login page earlier today? It told everyone they moved on to the next round? That seems like a big problem in this process. If they're stressing technical experience as being a factor for candidates, that's a really big misleading...

Twende.....PLEASE remove my name from the list!!! :sad2: I AM SO CONFUSED. I WENT TO THE MMP SITE A FEW HOURS AGO AND WAS CONGRATULATED FOR MAKING IT TO THE NEXT ROUND. I HAD TO LEAVE FOR A COUPLE HOURS AND CAME HOME. I JUST TRIED TO LOGIN IN AND IT STATES MY INFORMATION DOESN'T MATCH THE...

HELP!!!!! :eek: OKAY.....I AM SO CONFUSED!!! I WENT TO THE LOG IN TO THE MMP SITE A FEW HOURS AGO AND IT CONGRATULATED ME ABOUT MOVING ON TO THE NEXT ROUND. I HAD TO LEAVE FOR A COUPLE HOURS AND JUST GOT BACK. I JUST TRIED TO LOG IN AND IT SAID THAT MY EMAIL AND USERNAME DOES NOT MATCH...

ME TOO! ME TOO! ME TOO!!! OMG!!! I am laughing and crying!! Still no email yet, anyone?? :cheer2::cheer2::cheer2::cheer2::cheer2: Congrats to all!! Lots of :wizard: to you! I have to go for a couple hours now. Here's hoping those emails start flooding in!! :dance3:

Good morning to everyone in the waiting room! :goodvibes It's a cold but sunny fall day here! I have two pumpkin pies in the oven as we are having two families over to our house today. The house smells like autumn....:goodvibes the best smells, IMO! Still no news on the panel, but I get to...

:rotfl: Funny but true!! Also, IF we DO hear next week, I wouldn't discount monday (although tuesday was the day of the week last year). Schools, banks and government agencies are off but most regular businesses are open. I'll be checking throughout the wknd. even though I'm sure it will...

Thanks SO much for "going to bat" for us!!! :goodvibes I just WISH that little Tink would say "soon" as in today or soon as in next week! ;) Oh - and fave WDW food??? DEFINITELY the cobb salad from Brown Derby. It's to die for!!!! The carrot ginger soup from Boma is another fave!

Just back from picking up DD. She said they had to make pictures with fall leaves at school today. I asked her about her picture and she said she made hidden Mickeys! Ah, the brainwashing is complete!
