Write your reply.

assistant: Hi Bill,
Come on, don't be crass... I really have trouble believing that it's that
hard. We're not extraterestrials! The Disney Merchandise you find in Quebec
in big stores, i.e. Sears or Eaton's is both in french and english. Quebecois
and french is the same... Do you know about Disneyland Paris? You think that
works in English in the country called France, where the ONLY official
language is french? So no I don't think it would be a problem opening a
Disney Store in Montreal...

Write your reply.

assistant: Hi Chris,
Last time I checked the difference between me and a Parisian was the accent,
we do speak the same language...:-)
For the Quebec Market, I tend to disagree... If it was worth doing it in
Europe, they already have french, and, like i said before, we already have
Disney Merchandise in Quebec, and no the Language Police doesn't burn it...
As for the language police, I believe that Canadians are not properly
informed. It's not the Gestapo you know...

NG>Don't you think they put too much work into many disney films...

Write your reply.

assistant: Not at all!  I'm *glad* we have people who delight in producing
quality.  There's too much mediocrity in the world already.
I think the "economy" direction is not going to be in the "skimpy"
animation department, but more in the "Toy Story" direction.  Once
everyone figures out how to do full motion computer-generated
animation without having to apologize, it will become the dominant
form of animation.
We already have computers aiding the Disney animation process;
I believe the ink and paint is now done in the computer, along
with the production of the final print (as opposed to the multiplane
camera).  In both of these steps, the computer can produce results
equal to the older technologies.  Maybe better.  Certainly cheaper.

assistant: What are "super speed cycles" to be like?  It's a shame that people don't
have common sense anymore.  I suppose the ones jumping out of rides are
probably on drugs or have severe emotional problems.  I'm glad that Disney is
doing what they can to make their rides safer!  Thanks so much for sharing

assistant: Several people asked about the differences between the MKC free card and
the MKC Gold Card.  All the basic benefits are exactly the same (discouts at
Disney Stores and Catalog, Reduced admission to parks, discounts in certain
restaurants, discounts on rooms, etc.).
   For the price you pay (currently $65 for two years, $50 for seniors age 55
or older) you receive a subscription to "The Disney Magazine" which is
regularly $16.95, a "Personalized" membership card, a tote bag and a luggage
tag.  I understand it also includes a toll-free (800) number to WDW Central
Reservations.
   I hope this information is useful

the Feast of Fools, Everything is Topsy-Turvy!"

 *King* *Of* *Fools*!!"
    5. "The *Uliest is the who will be king!"
    6. "Come now good people...make your choice!!"
    7. "Ladies and Gentlemen, don't panic. We asked for the ugliest face in
 Paris, and here he is...*Quasimodo* the hunchback of Notre Dame!"
    8. "Well, well...what have we here?"
    9. "You're very clever to have found our hiding place. BUT you won't live
 to tell the tale! GAG THEM!!!"
    10."Gather 'round everyone. Good "noose" tonight! We've caught a couple
of Frollo's spies!"
       "What if they're innocent?"
       "That's the worst crime of all!"
       "What if they're guilty?"
       "We *HANG* them!"
    11."Why didn't they say so? Remove their gags!"
    12."Three cheers for Quasimodo!!"

though.  I've always kind of had a thing for Alison, just I had a bigger
thing for Pearl.  Alison knows who I am, but she's never seen me.  I've seen
her picture.  Alison thinks I'm really sweet because I gave Melanie money to
buy Alison flowers when she visits Alison.  I also gave Melanie money to buy
