Fantasmic and Illuminations are just so very much better. In '06, we watched Fantasy in the Sky on July 3 & 4, sitting on the beach at the Poly, that was a super fantastic show. |

Dave, you stealing my lines again? ;-)
Actually I don't call them kids, I call them moppets, but their 'singing' is definitely cringe worthy.
And I'm glad they're debuting a new show. I just hope its more American standards and not the themes from the armed forces that they've done in the past. I just think our country is about a whole lot more than our military (especially when we're involved in a war that never should have happened.)

You have no idea how close you were to a certain Spirit.

I enjoyed the show, but I had a couple of mai tais (maybe something else as well) so I was just looking at the 'pretty lights in the sky!'
<<Please don't pick on our military, my Navy son was sitting right beside me on that beach.>>
Never. Please don't take my feelings for our commander in chief to represent my feelings for the military. Nothing could be further from the truth.
I have had Navy relatives as well.

| davewasbaloo Fri 6/6/2008 11:09p | Yep, I am another Navy family guy (I am the only male in my family to have not served - but because of my disabilities, they didn't want me). But yes, there is more to America than the military. Patriotism should be about celebrating all of America. |
