Ya welcome. :)
 I'll hafta rent it. Been seeing ALOT of previews for Hunchback. That
movie is gonna be GREAT. :) I hope it doesn't do the Oliver And Company
thing. :( But I don't think it is. JatGP could be going to one of the
less expensive cinemas. That's were it probably is right now. But I
don't have ascess to any of those. Oh well. I can ride my bike to the
video store, though. :)

"Who never ever starts an argument?"           "Hmmmmmm?"
"Who never shows signs of temperment?"
"Who's never wrong, but always right?"          "Yeah!"
"Who'd never dream of starting a fight?"        "Izthat so?!?"
"Who gets stuck with all of that luck?"
"No one, but Donald Duck!"                      "YEAH!"

My wife is of German-American extraction and she has trouble with English so
don't feel bad(g). I didn't learn English until I was about 5 1/2 years old
and I still think in French.
Even at my age(39) I love most Disney films, I liked them so much I bought
into the company(stockholder). Have you seen the new one "Hunchback of
Notredame" yet? I havent but I really want to.

        I remember things I have experienced when I was about 4 years
old or so, maybe a little older. But those flashbacks burned into my
memory are so short that I can hardly make out what it was. I remember
when I tried riding a bike for the very first time. Geez, what a pain!
;) ... There's also something about being hunted by a dog, I was
SCARED! But luckily I didn't have too much fear, so I can live with
any dog in the whole world (unlike indiana jones, who will be scared
of snakes for ever!) =>. There's much more... I see my hand going
faaar up opening a door! Successful!! <clap clap clap>. Wanna know
what else I remember...? Something about Disney? I remember watching
Bambi!! But I don't know the movie anymore. It is just like when I saw
the Jungle Book. Now that I have it on video, the memory comes back to
me. I really have to see Bambi again anytime soon. I really forgot
everything about it. I'm very curious what I will remember when I see
that movie again.
        Let's imagine Simba was a cub with 6 months of age. Yes, he
sure would remember, everything. Remember that Lions don't need that
much time to grow up... try to compare the lifetime of a human to the
lifetime of a Lion. I think it would be okay if they say that he
remembered a few blits of the past of that time.. at least.

ask someone about this, it is confusing. Uh... let me get this
straight.. you think we shouldn't let Sarabi hear this because she
might be jealous at Sarafina? Well, who has chosen Sarabi to be the
queen? Confusing me. Well, I don't care =), the movie is great!!
I'm very satisfied with it and hope the sequel will be REAL cool! =)

for me. I've tried sending Nala mail, and my mail always just comes

Would that be possible?
PS: (Offtopic): I'm running a twin BBS to KKC, it looks VERY much like

assistant: Sad to say, I havn't been on Indiana Jones and the Temple of the
Forbidden Eye. It was still under construction on my last visit west.
Like you I am not likely to revisit DL any time soon (barring a hit on
the lottery). What I wrote about it, and what I know of it, comes mostly
from watching "Inside Out" on the Disney Channel. It does sound like a
pretty exciting ride!
Somehow, I expect that Indiana Jones will find a similar, but different
adventure in Florida. I too hope it comes soon.
That seems to be a pretty universal opinion on this echo.
I kinda suspect the imagineers could figure out how to do just about
anything they could imagine. 8;-) The big reason for the lack of
waterfalls at WDW is they weren't neccesary--at DL, those drops are
needed to get you underneath the railroad tracks. WDW was planned with a
Pirates from the beginning.
Yes, the Blue Bayou Restaurant and the whole bayou scene is one of the
most effective parts of the DL Pirates, IMHO. The contrast between that
quiet, idyllic scene and the death and destruction to come is part of
what makes DL Pirates so effective (and WDW Pirates so pale by
comparison). The Blue Bayou is without question the most romantic
restaurant in DL, and one of the Park's precious few quiet spots.
Question: Anybody here see WDW Pirates first and then DL? What do you
think of the two?

assistant: Don't be so shy, Marcia. We're not all *super experts*, we're just all
*super enthusiasts* like you. Besides, those here who are experts just
love to show off, so don't ever hesitate to ask questions. Remember that
your opinions are just as important as everyone elses--maybe more since
you can give us an international perspective!
So who did they get for the voices? Anybody we should know?
