assistant: wow.. its nice to know people actually see these kinds of things.. if you
really think about it, cartoons and 3D animations have MANY more detailed and
set up backgrounds and images because its all drawn.  Unless its drawn off a
real picture, it's all constructed unlike movie scenes where anything can go
slightly wrong yet make the final edit.  You see, with real stuff its not
100% controled environment, but iwth 3D animations and cartoons its 101%
controlled!  So you get a lot of jokes and hidden messages or simply very
detailed and specific things.. the only problem is that most of it is not
noticed.  Being a 3D animator myself it's nice to know that those hidden
jokes or insegnificant things are actually noticed...

assistant: You are right about the monorail at Disneyland. All the years I spent at the
park they never did give a co-pilot's license.
However, you can get a pilot's license for piloting the Mark Twain through
he
Rivers of America. To be able to do this,you just need to ask a cast member
n
board and if they are in a decent mood or you use puppy dog eyes, they will
ask
whomever is in the pilothouse if you can come up.
My children and I have done this a number of times and we always have gotten
nice treatment and very nice certificates.
if you get to the park, I highly reccomend you givethis a whirl.
Sincerely,
Sandy Truex

I saw your post on thr Haunted Mansion and wondered if you might be able to
help me,
I have some collectibles from the Haunted Mansion that I would like to sell
and
am not sure how to go about it.
I have a some art that was created by Marc Davis of the portraits in teh
Expanding Room. It shows all 4, side by side and they are full length. They
are
matted already and this ppiece was signed by Marc Davis at the Disney Gallery
at Disneyland in 1993. It was one of 100 that Mr. Davis signed. I dpon't
remember the entire story behind this art, but I do remember waiting in line
for hours and getting #93! I got very lucky that day.
The other piece I  have is a tombstone that says "Here Lies Ghost #1000" It
s
from Walt Disney World and say Haunted Mansion - walt Disney World on it.
If you can help me with some ideas onhow to go about seeling these I would be
grateful.
Thanks,  Sandy truex

Yes everyone does.  Fortunately not everyone has to agree with anothers
opinion.
No, it's a matter of interpretation and what you are looking for.
I could draw a shape of an erect male member, and you could scream - "hey,
that's obscene" and I could turn around and say "What, a picture of a
mushroom is obscene?  Give me a break".  It depends on where your MIND is!
You can't have an isolated geometric "penile" shape and consider it "penile"
unless the shape is in context with other elements (i.e. a male body shape)
that indicate that is what the interpretation meant.  The shape alone is just
a shape, but even if it is drawn on a clean piece of binder paper with
nothing else on it, a person with smut on the mind could still think "gee,
that's a penile shape". It's what's in the MIND that is telltale here.
On the cover of the Little Mermaid box, the "shape" in part of a spiraling
tower.  Thus, you *have* to take the shape in that context.  I see no "male
body" or even part of a male body depicted near the shape, so obviously, the
penileism of the shape is ONLY in the minds of those people open to the
suggestion of that, and NOTHING MORE.
So those people who "see" an obscene image on the box are only seeing it in
their heads, becuase it's not REALLY there.  It also shows they aren't very
good at critical thought, and certainly not when it comes to critical thought
when it comes to art, stilllifes, or anything else painted or drawn.  Art 1A
is not a class on art, but a class on perception!  Maybe some of the people
seeing an obscene shape on the box should take Art 1A before judging!
This has been MY opinion...  And I think it makes pretty good sense.
