DIS Dads The Dis Dad's Club II

[DisneyFed]

Ok, normally my idea of fun is to pull my bass boat out early on a holiday weekend, and then sit at the ramp with a six pack and watch the normal idiots launching their boats...

HOWEVER, since I don't have that option here....I find it just as fun to peruse the Community Boards at the bottoom of this web page..

Holy cow are some of those "contributors" in there.....ummm...."different"

No kidding - it's one of my favorite pastimes!

FedFuzz...just wondering what your perspective would be about using "it's a small world" or "One little Spark" as an interrogation tool at Gitmo?

Combine it with Stitch's chili dog burp smell and you'd have cruel and unusual punishment!

I saw that the other day. It looks like it is going to be great. I thought it was a bit sad to see Andy grown up and then to think of my own kids growing up!

How about it! We had some snow mixed in with rain yesterday. I said the same thing to my DW about going from the 90s to the 30s almost overnight. I hate winter and it's still 2 months away! Global warming.......

If you get this before you head out, check out the new exhibit at Innoventions, The Sum of All Thrills, and let us know what it's like This sounds like a must-do for our next trip.

Hmmmmm... let's fire up the DDMEB (DIS Dad's Magical Express Bus) and pick up all the dads and head on down! OH... and you guys experiencing "the white stuff" can pack some of it in a cooler so we can have snowball fights on the way

I'm waiting on the podcast - someone is heading on the Sum of All Thrills this week for a review.

And now, to ruin everyone's day - here's a piece of software I found last night:

LEGO Digital Designer



It's a free LEGO CAD program! My son is in a LEGO class in our home school CO-OP (simple engineering) and he needed something to help him build a trebuchet (his assigned project). I found this at 11:30 last night just before bed and the next thing I know it was 1:00 AM. This is a REALLY cool piece of software. It works on both MAC and Windows and it even will build instructions for you as you design and it will let you buy it as a completed project in a box that you design from LEGO. Of course, we're just using it for designing and we'll pick up the extra pieces we need from Lego Pick A Brick (PAB) or somewhere on BrickLink.

Anyway, if you're into LEGO, check it out. This is SO COOL! The only bad thing is that I'm stuck at work! BAAAH!

 

[Emma's Dad]

That was a great find! now I know what I'll spend the rest of my Friday work day doing

Let me know how you liked Imagination Movers we are supposed to go next month.

When DW bought the tickets I thought "OK, i'll probably enjoy it" but I was really surprised at how good it was. It started just after 6:30 and went until almost 8:00. It was really high energy and they spent quite a bit of time off stage going up the aisles giving the kids high 5's.

What really surprised me was the lack of merchandising. For these guys being Disney's latest hit there was only one kiosk selling stuff for a theater that holds 2600 especially coming off Disney on Ice where there were tables set up every 50 feet and people walking the aisles selling stuff. T-shirts were the the usual $20 and a ball cap was $30 and they were selling these little glow stick things but I never saw the price, luckily we had brought some stuff for Owen with us so he wasn't interested in waiting in line for anything else.

They said no cameras or video but it seemed like everyone had little point and shoot cameras and they didn't seem to mind. I took a bit of video on my Flip, i'll try to figure out how to post it to the Facebook page tonight.
