Very nice!!!

On my last cruise, the last question was this horribly obscure Pirates of the Caribbean question that only the nerdiest of the Disney Nerds would have known. I definitely wouldn't have known, except for the fact that thirty minutes beforehand I'd gone to see Jason Surrell, the guy who wrote the book on the ride, and he'd actually talked about it. Serendipity!

I think we have 7 pages to go.

We were watching someone once at mouseketeer and I was answering the questions along with him and he got up to the last question - I knew all the answers and wouldn't have needed any lifelines. He didn't know the answer to the last question AND I DID. It was killing me that I hadn't been picked for that one.

Ah hah! It's brutal, isn't it! I drove people nuts the first time I went because I didn't know the answer to the very first question. I had no idea! But it was one of those things where the first question is a sort of gimmie, so the audience sort of mumbled the answer out loud, and I picked the one I overheard and got it. It's kind of nerve wracking up there. I sort of felt bad after I got the last question right...

It might be a good idea to set one up today, the way we've been on so much.

I was on until midnight last night, then this morning I just got on after making my coffee and I missed the pirate run by like 2 minutes!!

[lwilliam]

all I did was take my son to work, which is only about 4 blocks from our house! And we are already up to '23'!

Earl of Sandwich is ON! (after Turf Club at Saratoga Springs).....LOVE that EoS!

I LOVE this group - they chat as much as I do!

I just checked the accu-weather site - SAD news for our sailing day....hopefully too far out to really know the weather.

I think so, I can't make it b/c I have so little time in WDW and we want to go to as many parks and attractions as we can in two days!!

Do you have a plan of attack, yet? Or are you just going to wing it when you get down here?

I really wouldn't worry about it too much. A probability of rain is typical Florida weather, but it's still sunny most of the day. And honestly it's a long way away, so it's nothing to get too bothered about just yet, anyway. Just be happy that there aren't any hurricanes out at sea!
