    Thank You Walt Disney!

    I have been reading everything going in in the debate lounge. A lot of 'heated' conversation - and rightly so. We have a lot to deal with as Americans. So much is going on in our nation and abroad - that it gets 'heated' in discussion.

    Think of all that we deal with? Presidents, Presidential Campaigns, Governors and Prostitutes, Economy going in the toilet, Forclosure of homes, Lack of Employement, Gas Prices, social issues.......WAR.

    So, that all said - I am not putting in there for debate, but thanking Walt Disney - for creating Disneyland and giving us a 'safe haven' to escape the troubles of our day, and enjoying life in 'The Happiest Place on Earth'.

    Thanks all. Have a good day, and get yourself to Disneyland/WDW or another other Disney place soon! You'll be happy you did - enjoy the 'escape'

    And...thank you Mr. Disney

    My positions on such weighty matters are as follows (in order of above appearance): no, no, no, yes, no, no, no, no no, and sometimes.


    And...thank you Mr. Disney
    Sounds good.

        Honestly, given as much money as I've "wasted" on Disney over the years, I'm gonna say ... screw you Mr. Disney.

              What a nice thought, Disneyland Daddy.

              I agree that Walt's optimism was the cornerstone of his success. Just think of some of the great, reaffirming songs from Walt's time that helped to give a lift when we needed it:

              "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow"

              "Enjoy It!"

              "Joie de Vivre"

              "No Way to Go but Up"

              "Whistle While You Work"

              "A Spoonful of Sugar (helps the medicine go down)"

              "With a Smile and a Song"

              "Let's Sing a Gay Little Spring Song"

              "My, What a Happy Day"

              "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah"

              ...and so many more.

              Put a few on your iTunes and head out into the glorious Spring weather!

                  I have most every Disneyland song on my ipod. I have a 'Disneyland' playlist! :lol: The kids at my school think I'm nuts. But ah... oh well.

                  I agree, thanks Disney!
                  Except for the rude people, who do get me down sometimes, I love his parks.

                      As much of a "safe haven" DL may seem to me, my wallet begs to differ. I just spent another $380 for another annual pass. And I seem to spend 7 or 8 bucks for a crappy cheeseburger with lukewarm fries, or $3 for a soda everytime I go there.

                      DL is a safe haven for every aspect of my life except for my wallet.

                        Thanks for my happy place Uncle Walt. Without it I'd have a lot more money, but I'd be miserable.

                                    I haven't read anything in the Debate Lounge, but I must say that I have never been as proud of the United States of America as I've been over the last few months. In the words of Mr. Disney, the spirit in the air at this moment in our history makes me feel red, white, and blue all over.

                                      DL is a safe haven for every aspect of my life except for my wallet.
                                      Agreed and agreed...and in my case..it's takes a little over half a tank to get to Dland and back and with gas prices...that hurts. When I first bought my pass 4 years ago..I would go almost every week..now...I'll be lucky to get out there once a month. And now, that my son is older, he wants every Mickey plushie or play gun or trinket he sees and it's so hard for me to say no to my son's big brown puppy dog eyes and I give in. After a trip to Disneyland...I'm broke for weeks. And being single mom doesn't help.

                                      I love Dland....but it's hard to mask the pain the wallet feels everytime I go and takes away from the joy just a bit.

                                      Ta Da!
