Today's (05/17) DIS Unplugged show...

[Maxpowers]

So I see the new Daily Fix is up and I still haven't seen anything about the contest winner. What happened to the announcement?

I'm waiting to hear it's me too

I'm so sorry. I got tied up last week. (That's not true, I had a deposition but it finished before 5 pm. I was just too tired afterwards). Also, when you go to Disney's investor relations page and see a #ThanksShanghai photo used as the banner, it tends to dull my enthusiasm for live posting financial news.

Here's a transcript of the earnings call https://thewaltdisneycompany.com/disneys-q2-fy16-earnings-results-webcast/
Between them, Iger and McCarthy (Not surprisingly, Staggs did not participate) mentioned #ThanksShanghai 6 times. Iger said he had been, and said he was excited about it's grand opening three different times (each time using a different adverb before "excited"). As for domestic operations:

"Attendance at our domestic parks was comparable to the second quarter last year, and per capita spending was up 8% on higher admissions, food and beverage, and merchandise spending. Per room spending at our domestic hotels was up 5% and occupancy was down 1 percentage point to 88%."

These numbers aren't bad but they show why Disney is trying to awaken the summer.

So, all together now: #ThanksShanghai

I can't even fathom this level of dedication. I wasn't even half way through before I got distracted by a fly on the wall. Then my chihuahua did something cute. Then, like 5 minutes into the American Adventure in summer, I took a nap. The only things that startle me from a nap are my wife coming home yelling 'what did you do all day', and that god awful song at the end of the show "America, spread your golden wings".

Really, cut that song and have a designated sleeping row and just let people stay there for two hours. I would be much less cranky.

Oh! No don't be sorry!! Life happens! I didn't mean to sound so entitled, sorry jack
Thanks for the run down, I'll have to take a look over the weekend.
