“Not in Mickey’s Backyard” is an interesting (if not sorta dry) look at Disneyland and the Suncal project back in 2007 (link). Some nice photos and a claim that Disneyland’s street address number (1313) was chosen by Walt because it represents the 13th letter in the alphabet “M” so 1313 is MM – Mickey Mouse. Anyone know if that’s true?
I've never seen that photo of Walt - He's driving a "regular" Autopia Car, neat!

Are you back from the French Riviera? Did you do any trout fishing??
The article might not be old, but it's still interesting. Plus it has a monkey on the cover. Monkeys, heh heh.
I love monkeys. Anyone know how the election turned out? Is this fight still going on?

From what I've heard / read, the whole 13=M is just an urban legend. 13 was Walt's favorite number. That's about as far as any comparison goes.
