Organization: The Amiga GateWay BBS * New Orleans, La.

I see in a book called "Walt Disney World With Kids 1993" that as well
as the new Wilderness Lodge that there will be a place called Buffalo
Junction addition to Fort Wilderness.  The book does not go into any
more details, and this is the first I've heard of Buffalo Junction.
 
I don't know if it is an addition to FW meaning more campsites or
if they meant another resort hotel -- perhaps a Dixie Landings of the
wilderness?  Or perhaps it will be similar to the wilderness lodgings
at EuroDisney, with "log cabin" dwellings...
 
The book also talks about the Kingdom Suites Hotel, which is the first
I've heard about that also.  According to the book, it will be located
on the Magic Kingdom monorail line and add 200 suites to the
Contemporary Hotel -- that's the way they wrote it, so it is not clear
if the KSH will be a part of the Contemporary or its own resort.
 
Back in September I had seen land-clearing on the bit of land jutting
out into the lake in between the Contemporary and the Transportation
& Ticket Center, but I had assumed that was associated with the new
Wilderness Lodge.  Perhaps this will be the site of the Kingdom Suites
Hotel?

   but a lot of professors claim that these influences are UNCONSCIOUS
influences....
   Personally, I think critiques say more about the critics than the film/
book/anything being critiqued.

I've been told by Ed Sterrett that he left out a line in the post here

What came out as:

Should have been:

Any of you keeping the posts Carol and I wrote (as some have told us
they are) might want to insert the missing line into the file.  This was
the second report on Admiral Joe Fowler.  Ed said he got carried away
editing the message and deleted too many lines..

In response to Jan P.'s comment, Lea Salonga did win the Tony for 
Miss Saigon, which leads me to wonder: if she's a good enough actress 
to win a Tony (which she is), and she has a beautiful speaking voice, in
addition to her singing voice, why didn't she play Jasmine throughout
the film, and not just when she sang "A Whole New World" (my new favorite 
song)? Is it because it was too expensive in addition to Robin Williams'
salary? Please get back to me- I'm dying to know.

I've recently begun watching "Avonlea" on Disney Channel.  I've seen

is it just other people on the same island?

Does anyone else watch the show out there?

Good point.  Believe it or not, Mr. Eisner and I share a common bond.
Aside from both of us working for Disney =-), we are both also members
of the same fraternity.  Although I have his home address, I've never
had cause to use it.  All my correspondence through his office has
been well received and I've always received a prompt reply.  (funny
though, not ONE of the many books about him mention him joining a
fraternity.  In fact, both he and John Davidson were members of the
same chapter, one year apart, at Denison.  I wonder why it's never mentioned.
Possibly because that chapter had its charter pulled a few years later
and no longer exists.  hmmm.)

I think it should be noted that this is not a sponsored event by
Disney.  2 summers ago the G & L groups in Orlando tried to rent out
the Magic Kingdom, but Disney doesn't rent that park for
anything..(They do rent the Studios though, for private parties, like
SONY, etc..) So they decided they would all just show up together and
wear red.

	I have just uploaded another picture from Aladdin to 
atbmac1.larc.nasa.gov. I placed it in the pub/graphics/incoming
directory. It is called ride1.gif. Do not try to get ride.gif, I 
accidently placed it in ASCII mode(oops!).
	This one is of Prince Ali and Princess Jasmine on the
magic carpet. My apologies for the lack of detail on the carpet, but
it is very difficult to create fine detail at times. Once again the pic
was done using Disney's Animation Studio and colored using Aldus 
PhotoStyler 1.1. By the way, I'm drawing these pictures using the 
Twin Books Disney story books as a source. I believe one book exists
for each Disney animated feature. Right now I only have Aladdin and
Beauty and the Beast, but I hope to get them all eventually. I have found them
for around $7 at most stores, but saw them for $5 at K-Mart recently.

Yes, there does seem to be a "phallic symbol" in The Little Mermaid.  It's 
actually very easy to find.  Grab the box for the video tape and look at the
cover.  One of the spires supposedly looks phallic.  I can see it, and most
of my friends can see it...but I have great doubts that some little kid is
going to notice that the castle...made of all sorts of tall pointy towers
that are vaguely phallic to begin with, has one that looks a little more
so than the rest.  

I think the whole thing is rather funny and has been blown all out of
proportion.  I don't really know if Disney took any puntitive action against
the artist, but I think it would have been very silly if they had.

Disney 2 is a new service that runs on a different schedule than the original
Disney feed, in the same manner that HBO 2, HBO 3, Cinemax 2, and Showtime 2
run the same programming but on a completely different schedule. This all
just gives us more opportunity to catch the shows we want when we want rather
than when they do.

He was also the Wall in The Fantasticks, the father in DIRTY DANCING,
