You are right,,,, it was at this point when you told us that news, that I started twitching. Ok, but no, you did a great job, really!
As long as you werent twerking
Just kidding. We all saw the instant shudder than ran through you at the prospect that there was no plan.
Well put T-Man, you summed it up perfectly. Boy, I was a real pain in the asp, wasn't I?
No you were not a pain in the asp
You were a pain in other areas
but not in the asp.
All kidding aside, we loved hanging out with you guys.
Great stuff Lady H and Bunny Boy. But why do I have the feeling as this goes on, I am going to end up being slammed, one way or anotehr?
Would we do something like that?
Not a morning person...
Check.
What makes you say that?
I have to admit, I wasn't overly impressed with it (at WDW), but that might have been because it was hyped so much.
But the one at DL does look more impressive.
I like the one at DL more. Maybe because its just a little different. The venue isnt as intimidating, since you have options to get out, plus I think there isnt as much of the water imagery, its the actual actors (characters) doing a lot of stuff here.
So... you were late.
That's what you're telling us, right?
We were on time
so yes
we were late
More on the late thing in the next chapter.
To be, or not to be?
Why does sour cream have an expiration date?
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
Hahaha
There was this thing going around facebook in 2012, during the time that the world was going to end that had quite a few unanswered questions
The world is supposed to be end today huh? That's bad. I never found out who let the dogs out, the way to get to Sesame Street, why Dora doesn't just use Google maps, why we don't ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery", why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed, why "abbreviated" is such a long word, why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor yet dish washing liquid is made with real lemons, why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to? Why do you sit in the stands? Why do you drive in a parkway but park in a driveway? Why did Joanie love Chachi? Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane? Does the alphabet song and twinkle twinkle little star have the same tune? And why did you just try to sing those two previous songs? And just what is Victoria's secret? You see, the world just has to keep going. I have to many questions.
Well,
that's convenient!
Disney is nothing if not thorough in the way they set things up.
I knew that!
Of course, I only found out a couple of weeks ago....
Just seems odd, though.
Why are there dinosaurs?
Im guessing it was sort of a walk through (or ride through in this case) time. Since dinosaurs were the first to inhabit this planet, I guess they figure might as well add them to the mix
And then you murdered them, disposed of the bodies and laughed all the way to Fantasmic??????
Well.... I guess your way is more....
legal.
A lot less clean up too
See? And you thought Nebo was a total fool. An incredible idiot. A giant goof.
I'm not saying you're wrong, just saying what you thought.
What?! Now you have mind reading capabilities too?
So
Thumpers are easy.
Got it.
How do you think I got T_Man to agree to go out with me?
Those make sense... I still don't get the dinos, though.
This is Disney. A place where your imagination runs free. If you can believe in a human sized mouse who walks on two feet and talks, then dinos should be easy.
I stopped reading there...
"They're not going to get off there, are they? No. They wouldn't... Would they?"
Its funny, the whole time we were on the train, I kept thinking
Were wasting time. Im sure there are things Nebo and Smidgy want to do, things we need to be getting to, lines that are now getting bigger, and we dont even have a plan in place
wait
no plan yet. Hmm
Maybe riding the train will give T-Man time to come up with a plan!
What? You didnt think I would be coming up with one did you?
pkondz breathes a sigh of relief.
He doesn't have to go looking for a more intelligent TR.
I wouldnt go that far.
Its been known to happen.
Well, considering you said it was pretty obvious... I won't look for anything obscure.
Four things pop out at me right away about both pics:
1. Both have a very lovely young lady
2. Both have said lovely young lady smiling (as opposed to screaming, "Dumbwife! Dumbwife!")
3. Both have said lovely, smiling young lady with a Disneyland lanyard.
4.Both have said lovely, smiling, lanyard wearing, young lady wearing the same shirt.
1. I think you may be looking at the wrong picture, or wrong TR
2. The Dumbwife picture will be coming in another chapter Im sure.
3. There are so many people with those lanyards, its hard to tell them apart.
4. Now there
I have nothing
I couldnt believe when I saw the pictures that I actually wore the same shirt both trips. Way too weird.
And breathed a sigh of relief, I'm sure. Since it probably wasn't going to dry anytime soon and you still had HM and Fantasmic to see.
This is rare for T-Man and I
In any water ride we go on, we always get soaked. We were pretty excited about this.
Real men can hold their urine.
Evidentially
At the same time, they dont have to wait in line, so even if they cant hold it, its not that big of a deal.
In my last chapter of my TR (I mean the last one I will post), I will expand on this.
Color me curious.
Yup. Keep them in my backpack just in case
You never know when youll need those little guys. They come in handy when you want a snack too.
OMG! I am
so not surprised! But, still hysterical!!!
I honestly did not expect to hear those words, from his mouth, and especially not as I am coming out of the ladies room and we are standing in the alleyway. Im sure if others heard it, they probably did a double take.
I have my moments.
Nah.
I agree with Heather.
Under-bus tosser.
At least someone agrees with me. Thank you Ponzi!
Whoa. Those things take effect fast!
And those were the low dose.
Those desserts better be the best you've ever had!
I said the same thing on our last trip. And from the looks of it
they really werent that spectacular. Looks can be deceiving though.
Didn't you use this trick on your last visit?
Or did you notice it but weren't aware of it at the time?
I don't remember.
We did
although at the time we werent aware of it. Our hope was that it would move, but we figured we would be able to see things from our vantage point no matter what so it wasnt too big of a deal. When it came down to show time, we were in luck because not only did we have an awesome area to stand in, with no one in front of us, but the light was no longer blocking our way.
This time, it came in really handy because the light was directly in front of us.
And just like that, their opinion of you plummeted.
I think it plummeted way before this point.
You know you have good friends when...
Exactly. We make it up to them later.
Must've stopped to use the restroom again.
I wish that was the case. The first stand we came to that sold sodas of course was taking forever as it was, and when we finally got to the front of the line, they didnt have what T-Man and I wanted. So while Smidgy got hers and Nebos drinks from there, I went in search of a place that sold Sprite. Turns out I ended up going all the way to the little restaurant behind Splash Mountain which was quite a ways further than I had intended. Either way, I finally got our drinks and it was better for us in the long run, because I got ours on ice, which is the way I like it!
I wouldnt put it past them.
So... you lied.
Just what else in this chapter is a complete fabrication?
Did you even go to DL????
Man, I trusted you!
Im just the co-writer
remember
the lovely lady with the lanyard
They hang people who move in on others' turf??????
They figured it would be less clean up than shooting them.
I agree.
100%
Respect your elders, kids! You heard it here first!
:
If you want to teach your kids a lesson and learn to respect their elders, send them to Disney and make them try to invade in others pre-determined areas just moments before a show starts. Thatll teach em! May be an expensive lesson, but its well worth it when they get older!
So.... good excuse to go again?
Ill take any excuse I can get.
T-Man, my rough and tough marshmallow!
Both of you?
You can call it something else if you want.
Evening, for example.
We didnt want to be rude. It is Nebo after all. If he wants to call it a night, then by golly, night it is! I dont care if the sun is shining!
Check.
Deliberately excluding them.
Were you afraid that they'd eat all the food and leave you with nothing?
Since this was planned I was afraid going off the grid may have been a little too much to handle.
We aim to please
Honestly, those were amazing corn dogs. I kinda want one right now. This whole new years resolution, diet, new found self esteem thing is wearing thin when it comes to thinking about those babies.
Okay. Which one was it. "Soon" or "finally"?
Eventually?
Was stairs a new thing for you guys?
Wow! They must have tons of escalators and elevators in the south, huh?
Why do you think Im on this pesky diet!
Just kidding
Actually the problem with this resort was the fact that stairs after an extremely long day of walking, not to mention, after also lugging our bags and groceries up the stairs earlier in the day, was something we didnt always look forward to.
Having done it, isn't that a nice way to end the day, though?
Sitting back, relaxing and recalling the day?
It always was a great way to unwind.
Thanks for the chapter, Mike. Well done!
Can't wait for DCA with you both and Nebo and Smidgy!
Im working on it. Well see if I can do it justice.
Excuse me? Do you not remember this from my TR?
Hmmmm.... no man card and no memory.
Heather, I think your "man" needs help.
But then again, you probably already knew that.
gee great pic tman
oh my gosh I think it is time to retire those shirts that is not the first time something like that has happened. let's just say I try no to cross my arms when I wear it that cuts off the p and the r . I am surprised that hasn't been posted yet. I was going to wear my thumper shirt but thought it might be a bit Kathy bates in misery. I 'm your number 1 fan andall that
We would have been honored if you wore a thumper shirt. I had actually contemplated wearing mine myself. I guess it would have come in handy since we were having a dismeet and all
I showed T-Man the picture again after you mentioned it and he laughed. Hadnt noticed it until then.
whew all caught up. I laughed until I cried at that pic of the shirt. I just want to say again it was amazing to meet all of you in person. I totally agree with you about staking your claim for Fantasmic. It has been years since we have seen it. Th e crowds are killer. We usually watched it from the DSA by haunted mansion.
If you liked those corn dogs next time you are out here try the corn dogs back in dca they have hot link corn dogs. Oh man now I am drooling. May have to renew our passes next weekend. With the broken leg and a trip to WDW we decided to wait on them until Feb sometime.
well now I am off to ponzie's tr to catch up over there
We enjoyed meeting you both too. It was great to put a face to the name. I hope we can do it again sometime. It was too short of a visit!
