Does anyone know where Robo is? I checked the walkway between the TTC and Poly last year for him
Yikes. You have to work on her, haha.my DIL is not a Disney person. She never lived more than 50 miles from Disneyland and never went until she went with our son and us in her 20s. She has been to WDW 4 times for competitions and conventions and has NEVER been to any of the parks.
Funny thing is, her dad is a company CEO and he was cleaning out a desk that previous CEOs had used and found 20 passes to Disneyland. Apparently they used to give them out as perks to their employees and were pushed back in the desk and forgotten for 50 years. Yup. The issue date on them was 1972. Disney is still honoring them. So my oldest Granddaughter has been to Disneyland, at age 3. About 20 years younger than her mother was for her first visit.Yikes. You have to work on her, haha.
Very neat. Cheap, no cost tickets.Funny thing is, her dad is a company CEO and he was cleaning out a desk that previous CEOs had used and found 20 passes to Disneyland.

I'm thinking SandraB, Barb. Great picture of a bunch of 'old timers'. Hope your sister Nancy is doing well also, Barb. Please say hello for me if possible.
Some great memories there, Beezle. Bad Shoe, fun times there. There was @Zurg and @zurgswife. I wonder how they are doing
Hope the med stuff is behind you now, @pbrim. Good to be planning a return trip, especially to celebrate retirement..
It was great meeting your dad and Newley way back when, Gina.
And a Vader meetup and a lightsaber, what a way to bring him into the fold. Very neat. Great picture.
Hey Nancy! Great to see you. Good fun times in the past.Hi Dan!
I'm still around and doing well. My girls are all grown and still love Disney. My youngest did the college program and now lives down in Florida, not working for Disney though.
I am retiring in 1 week! I still show up here on the boards. I do the award shows threads and also the American Idol one if there is one.

Married? Law school? 20 years ago for the TV show? Time flies, Erika. :It’s always good to see you here Dan! My oldest just got married and my youngest is headed to law school, the tv show was 20 years ago if you can even believe!
Fun times, eh, Karen? Good to see you.Oh the corn people! Interesting to see that some of us still have the August 19, 1999 after the big crash!
Oh yes! The new software. You have a much better memory than I do!I'm pretty sure it was the niblets, Dorothy. Too messy otherwise. Willy used to write some really funny stuff about the corn people.

Actually, that August date was not one of those frequent crashes. It was the start date of a new software that the previous owner here incorporated. I started here in March, 1999 and then reregistered with that new software in August. Lots of August and September , 1999 dates here. Then I had to reregister once again in April, 2000. as the software was updated and a few of the moderator folks had to reregister once more.
Good to see you too, Dan!Great to see you again, Nancy. Good memories from back then. And the local DIS meets, so many of them, back when the pins were so in vogue! Fun days. 'Neighbor' still?
