A Dole Whip from the MK will cure most any illness I am told. Today I am using it to remedy "No Cheesecake-itis" which I developed over at Cinderella's castle during lunch. I feel it working it's magic and YEESSS... I AM CURED! HALLELUJAH! The longing for cheesecake is replaced with the delicious flavor of fresh, juicy pineapple! MMMM! MMMM!
Strolling down Main Street USA I am not thinking of anything in particular when all of a sudden my Nike's veer to the right, as if on auto pilot. I wonder if I have been secretly equipped with some special secret agent spyware ala Inspector Gadget... I stop short and I am in front of the MAIN STREET BARBER SHOP! whuh? Not having a pressing engagement I go inside where a Master Card Moment is about to unfold before my very eyes! Imagine if you will ~ a small town barbershop in ANY TOWN USA. There are two well-worn leather seats and 2 barbers. Let's call one MIKE and the other MAURA. Mike is busy cutting the blonde hair of an 8 yr old little boy (of course I am inferring this since he has gotten a marine cut and I see his hair on the floor as opposed to his head...LOL!) The father sits in Maura's chair next to him and they are getting a Father-Son haircut. I see the little boy is finished first and Mike as is the custom with an MK Main Street Barber Shop Haircut... is making a Mickey Mouse head done in red gel on the back of the little boy's head. Then more gel is used to "spike" what's left of the boys hair on top before being adorned with a magical sprinkling of "Pixie Dust" ... a mixture of rainbow colored mickey mouse and regular confetti.
The boy is SOOO proud of how he looks and with wistful eyes asks his dad to do the same so they'll match! The father laughs and shakes his head NOOO... when I clear my throat (you knew I was going to butt in here didn't you?)..."Sir, if you think about it ~ it won't be long before he won't ask you any more to be JUST LIKE HIM and ya know... you're in DISNEY WORLD... so what the heck?" He looks at me and says.. "You think so?" I laugh, "I really DO!" After the father was properly gelled and pixie dusted, that boy was beaming at his Dad like he would bust... Just then his wife walks in and gives him a little chuckle and says with a smile "Well, Dear! You certainly got your money's worth!" I whispered to the little boy, "You know you really have a super Dad... !" The little boy looked up and nodded, "I know!" As they were walking out the door I heard the boy tell his dad how cool he looked... Someone start the background music for the commercial....
Imagine the soundtrack from Peter Pan called "You Can Fly"
When there's a smile in your heart
There's no better time to start
Think of all the joy you'll find
When you leave the world behind
And bid your cares good-bye
You can fly! You can fly!You can fly!
MASTER CARD COMMERCIAL:
Plane tickets to Disney World, $1200
Theme park tickets to the Magic Kingdom, $250.
Cost of a Father-Son HairCut, $30
The Look on the Son's Face when Dad gets gel and "Pixie Dust" in his hair..... PRICELESS!
If you look real close you can see where MAURA gave me red gel streaks and dusted my hair with "Pixie Dust"!
The afternoon parade has begun and I am right in front of the corner where the floats return. I am able to see it all before monorailing over to EPCOT! This park hopping stuff is fun! And since I didn't drive... I can leave EPCOT and take the bus home! WHAT A PLACE! LET's mosey on over to ENGLAND for a pint, shall we?
