I happened across a gentlemen at an Auto Swapmeet (in Carlisle, PA) over
the weekend that carries many Disney Videos...No, he doesn't have Lady
and the Tramp or Little Mermaid, but he did have Bambi, Dumbo,
Rescuer's, Sword 'n the Stone and many more.  (I suppose I should've
written the titles down--he had over a dozen titles with him.) 
Although, he may have a line on other titles.

I purchased Bambi for a friend...and yes, it was sealed and we did watch
it and it works fine.  The cost was $15.

If you want to contact him, his number is...609-482-1177, ask for Allen.

He mentioned that if he is not available, please leave a message and he
will return your call.

Good Luck!

P.S.  I have no connection with Allen, but when I saw some of the
titles, I thought of the many posts I've seen requesting hard to find
videos.

A friend of mine and I plan to visit WDW in December. Does anyone know if any
attractions or shows will be closed then? The guidebooks we've looked at say 
it's not uncommon for closings to occur in December.

I called and asked about the hours of operation that will be in effect during
this time. Here's the response I got. All of these times are still TENTATIVE:

Magic Kingdom:
	Dec 1-6		9am-7pm
	Dec 7-?		9am-6pm

EPCOT:
	Dec 1-6		9am-9pm
	Dec 7-?		9am-8pm

MGM
	All month	9am-7pm

Seems like the first week will give you an extra hour, assuming the times don't
change between now and then.

Hope this helps!

The latest I've read from Variety is that Disney has recently sent
executives to Gotham to seek out possibilities for a Beauty and
the Beast stage production on Broadway.  The article said that "they
faced a mixture of anticipation and outright skepticism."  Film and
drama critics alike applauded BatB's musical score and screenplay.

David Rosenak, executive director of the Society of Stage Directors
and Choreographers said "I would welcome Disney here.  They have
some marketing expertise that would be valuable here.  But they
should play the game like everyone else."  Disney, as usual, wants
complete control over the entire production.  If they can't do that
on Broadway, Disney plans to produce the show in Orlando--like some
sort of Off Off Off Broadway production.  One Disney executive said
that it was "totally a fact-finding thing, nothing was set.  It has
been and will continue to be embryonic."  Since the word is out, I
presume that the only question is whether it will be a *Broadway*
show.

No mention was made of Tim Rice.  Alan Menken's agent says that
his client "has every hope to participate."

The quotes in this post are from the article "Disney does Gotham
for B'way 'Beauty'" in the September 21 issue of Variety.

Yes, I have stay at the Days Inn Resort in Lake Buena Vista.  There
happen to be three Days Inn hotels within a blocks distance in that
area, but the one you want is the Days Inn Resort, especially if
you have kids.  Rooms are typically $70-80, standard type hotel
room.  The nice thing about the Resort, is the larger pool and kids
outdoor play area.  

If you are a Quest International Club card holder (Amoco Motor Club
members get one free), you can stay at the Lake Buena Vista Howard
Johnson's Resort for just about the same price.  And it is a luxury
room, meaning a few extras like a VCR in the room, larger closet,
more toiletry items, etc.  But the real nice thing about the HoJo
is that they are part of Disney and provide the Disney bus service
and Disney information channel on the room TV.  

Just some ideas.

Hmm.  I don't like the feel of this.  The odds of winning (surviving) a
Rally style game (1 bullet, 6 slots, spin once, fire 5 times) seems to be
the same as winning a 5 bullet, one shot R.R. game.

In each case, 5 positions out of 6 determine that you'd lose. One out
of six determines that you'll survive.

Seems to me the odds are 17%.

Unless a Rally style game is 1 bullet, 6 slots, (spin & fire) 5 times.  Then
the odds would be (5/6)^5 or 40% (Don't play it, either way.)...

I heard of a new serialized Miyu that has Yui appear.  From reading only the
 first volume of Vampire Yui, it seems that Yui no longer exists at the 
 end of the story; that this whole experience was only a "dream" for Yui,
 given by Miyu as a gift.

BTW, I'll have to say again that this new serialized Miyu sounds so
 radical from the Manga, that someone else has taken over writing it.

Well, I chatted with the sales manager at Viz about a month ago.  He had told
me then that he was crossing his fingers hoping that he would be able to 
purchase the rights to part three.  It's been since 1989 that the last 
Nausicaa Comic came out...  We've all been waiting that long.  If Viz-in
is now claiming that part three is coming out, it probably is.  I'll 
probably be one of the first in line to get a copy.  Unfortunately, he also
told me that part three would not end the series... and that there will be
a part four that we'll once again have to wait for.  That's all I know...
