<<Speaking of kissing, my wife and I made a rule last year that, whenever we see another couple kissing we have to kiss, too. This leads to quite a bit of kissing! Funnily enough, our 15 year old daughter, who pretends to be grossed out by her parents kissing, actually points out others kissing when we miss it!>>

Love it!

Alice, I'm still earning my Disney Dork Ears, so I had to Google! LOL! Love your rule, too!

(From Disney Lies)
"The Legend: The Haunted Mansion Doom Buggies often stop to give handicapped people a chance to enter ride vehicles.

Behind the Legend: Not true. When someone needs to (for example) transfer from a wheelchair to a Doom Buggy, the ride is not stopped but slowed down. This was originally known as putting the ride in "creep" mode, but that was changed to "slow" mode because some disabled people objected to being called creeps, and then to "disabled" and finally to "bonus" mode for the same reason.

The ride does stop with annoying frequency, but that is because members of the maintenance staff, scurrying around in near darkness to keep things looking neat both on and off stage, have a tendency to accidentally trip over the cord and pull the plug out of the wall."

LOL!

LOL! Okay, okay, this has nothing to do with kissing, or TSMM wait times...LOL! But I have to share this next Disney Lie:

"The Legend: Black cats are routinely sacrificed in the Haunted Mansion by Satanic cults while the ride is closed for its annual transformation into Haunted Mansion Holiday.

Behind the Legend: Whether this is literally true or not is a matter of how one defines "routinely," "sacrificed," and "Satanic." For example, if "routinely" means "all the time," "sacrificed" means "more than just tortured at length," and "Satanic" means something other than "Walt Disney Company upper management," then the statement is false. Also, some of the cats aren't black."

LOL! Who writes this cool site???

I LOVE the Disney Lies site... The guy is a riot!!


For a bit more "legit" explanation of "Creep Mode"... The doombuggies previously did stop often to accommodate the elderly and other folks who needed even just a little help getting in and out of them. Then Creep Mode was built into the system, so the buggies mostly just slow down now. They do, however, still stop completely on occasion for those folks who need them to. :-)

BTW... The last actual cat sacrifice took place on June 6, 2006 - NOT during the Nightmare Before Christmas makeover.

As far as I'm concerned, the ride is called MIDWAY MANIA. The sign shows in very small letters Toy Story. You'll miss it if you don't see it.

MIDWAY MANIA!!!
