Close - last to post. It's a coveted position that usually ends with us posting at the rate of 500-800 posts per hour vying for that honor.

Heck, I'm just trying to find a way to move back there. I'd be out of driving distance from the house of mouse but I'd be back home. Of course that means 1) finding a job, 2) packing our stuff, and 3) leaving everything we now have here. I think we're waiting until the kids are out of the house first.

I'll be in Indianapolis for a day or so. Where are you located?

Whoops, too late. I already sent the FAA over to your office. Just tell them it was middlepat.

Stopher between all the great pics of DL last night and the description of cars land you've posted I'm starting to think your still a DL castmember in charge of increasing admissions.

I was thinking about that. As hard as it is to keep up with 15 pages a day on one thread, I would think it would be harder to keep up with 2 pages a day on each of 9+ threads. Conversations would cross threads, guys would miss out on topics, pandemonium in the streets, fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes. The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

Ok, those last few may have if the containment grid is shut down and thousands of ghosts are released in New York City. Either way, I think our own forum would make my head spin.

No, we need a chat room as quick as this thing moves sometimes.

No.

I haven't been officially employed by the Mouse for about 20 years. In fact, I've given them entirely too much money in that 20 year span - that far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far exceeds what they ever gave me while I was in their employ. But that's okay, really.


I just have an inordinate love for Walt's park... the one that started it all. The only one he actually walked in, ate in, slept in... the one that was the inspiration for 4 other "Magic Kingdoms" around the world... plus the other existing parks, and soon to be parks. The one that I grew up with - and truly is the Granddaddy of all theme parks. That's all.

Oh - and yeah - you really should plan a trip out there too. Not that it will benefit me in any way, but you'll have a grand experience, and I'll enjoy knowing you've enjoyed it...and even be jealous of you for being able to be there.

Nice. +3 for another quality reference!

Sounds like a good place for the Indiana DIS Dads meet!







Hey, I can dream...

I agree. My guess is that the number of posts would also drop too. Spreading the conversations out across multiple threads would mean conversations wouldn't move as fast. If the conversations were moving slower people'd need to check in here less frequently and that would result in less posts.

We were planning on heading out there next September but we're gonna take my SIL and her family to WDW instead. I think my next park is going to be Tokyo.

I have to second this one. I kind’a like the wayward rambling of this little thread. Since we’re all posting here, I get to see what on everyone’s mind and also find myself reading along on topics that I may just overlook if it were a separate conversation. Hearing discussions on topics that are outside your own realm generally leads to expanded horizons (and I think Walt would have approved with that idea as well... Maybe not the mass hysteria part, but...)
