Eric Schmitt once called me a dirt bag using a FastPass to ride Flight of Passage, but it was really an Express Pass for Flight of the Hippogryph.

So in the same attraction little kids will meet and greet these oversized, fluffy costume characters, plus see smooth-skinned, non-moving fiberglass versions of them, and see animated versions of them in picture frames. THIS IS INCEPTION FOR TODDLERS!

This item showed up this morning on Recycling the Magic’s Facebook page. If you know anything about Pinocchio, you know why this is ironically hilarious. I don’t think this was ever sold at Pleasure Island—I would have bought it!

Disney Fan Trolley Problem
A trolley on tracks is approaching a track switch. A person is standing by the controls. The person can choose for the trolley to go one of two ways. If it goes the first way, it kills one person. If it goes the second way, it kills four people. The first way is labeled "Fix the Yeti." The second way is labeled, "Take away cast member spouses' health benefits."

This is going to be really funny in 30 years when people are talking about rides and someone says, “Hey, remember when the ghouls popped up behind the gravestones in The Haunted Mansion” and four people have no idea what they’re talking about because their moms turned off the effect.

Somewhat related to my earlier post, it’s ironic to me that some of the very first digital studio recordings are once again available only in an analog format.

Wild guess: 3D movie with animatronic musician and camera operator, large screens on side, like a concert. Terri and Terry’s magic act goes awry, causing a multitude of 3-eared monster bunnies to overrun the theater. Slapstick chaos ensues.
