It's not a proper WDW vacation without a lunch at Earl and an hour or two at Disney's Days of Christmas. This is the photo spot mentioned above: No, I don't know these people... I just Googled the spot. I believe it is back near Basin, at the parking lot access closest to Days of Christmas. -

You keep better track of my stuff than I do! Thanks, TCD. -
Does Anyone Have The Answer
Santa ... Shannon replied to Discamper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I can't put my hands on it right this moment but I have a map that shows that all those woods around the Fort, that would seem to be prime for new loops, are protected wetlands. Not that that's an insurmountable challenge. But there are also other facilities issues that come with added capacity. Check-in lanes get swamped, overflow lot fills, golf cart parking is insufficient, lines for the boats get ridiculous, the pool gets so full of people you could walk across it and not get wet, and that's with today's crowds. So adding loops means lots of new facility changes as well. -
It's An Old Dog; New Tricks; Pop And Fort TCD Trip Report

Does that say "not a thing"? I'm pretty rusty and know nothing of modern usage... But it'd be hilarious if the reply for thank you in Hebrew is literally, ain't no thang! (told you I'm a word geek!) -

Santa ... Shannon replied to Tri-Circle-D's topic in Trip Reports
Ok, time for a word geek break... Someone not too long ago used the term "yada, yada, yada". Did you know that in Hebrew (at least in biblical Hebrew) yada means "to know", so in essence "yada, yada, yada" means "ya know?" which we all know is a shorthand way of saying "you know what I mean without me filling in all the tedious details". Ah yes, three semesters of Hebrew finally pays off! -

February 2011 Trip Report From TCD
Santa ... Shannon replied to Tri-Circle-D's topic in Trip Reports
Au contraire mon frere, your request was very subtle. So subtle in fact that even now that you have told me where to look I still don't see it! But of course I'd be happy to see if I can clear things up. Just shoot it to me in an email. I wouldn't hold my breath based on the screen shots, though, it looks like it may be a scan rather than vector art. -

Tsk, tsk... all this time together and you still don't know how to read my sarcasm? Oh well, at least I amuse myself. -
February 2011 Trip Report From TCD
Santa ... Shannon replied to Tri-Circle-D's topic in Trip Reports
Hmmm, this got me wondering. Chris, is there any (easy) way to pull a report of folks who are registered but have never posted? On the one hand I'm just curious as to what percentage that group might represent. But on the other hand it might be cool to have a "Kicked your butt out of the closet thread" where you out the lurkers for us to all pile on... errr, encourage, to join the conversation! Ok, maybe that's not a good idea, but it is a fun idea! -

Ha ha! I LOVE getting emails titled "Tri-Circle-D added 42 images to the May 14 2011 Weekend Update album!"... good thing are always sure to follow! -
I have investigated USB based thermometers in the past for just such an eventuality. The therms usually include some scripts that can send an e-mail when a certain threshold is breached. Of course the system would need internet access (we use an aircard when camping) and you'd have to have a phone with e-mail capability. I never got past the investigation stage, but it seems a reasonable thing to pursue. A script to send an e-mail as soon as the laptop has to switch to battery power would be good, too, in case the temp doesn't rise before the battery is exhausted. Heck, you could even do some

Don't forget to add $5 bucks a day if you bring your pet! Or how about $60 for the much desired golf cart. Now we're talking serious money!

Fiends? Really? Surely you misspoke. Anyone enlightened and genteel enough to prefer "corn toss" over the traditional, less politically correct (and dare I add, vulgar) "corn hole" would no doubt prefer the equally respectable and refined Fort Friends. I'm sure it was just a typo. -

"Corn toss"? Seriously? It's thinking like that that took Mickey's musket and replaced it with a walking stick... then the stick was deemed too weapon-like and they swapped it for a butterfly net! UGH! CORN-HOLE!!!! CORN-HOLE!!!! CORN-HOLE!!!! CORN-HOLE!!!! CORN-HOLE!!!! ...and long live Musket Mickey! -

Umm, something is amiss. TCD went to the Laugh Floor and was not tagged with being That Guy? I know the park was crowded but surely there wasn't another dotty old hapless fellow that could trump our TCD?!!
