Didn't the original boats, pardon me, <I>bateau</I>, only have five rows? The hourly capacity was still only 3,600 with the six-row bateau. What gives? In the good old days only one person was needed to dispatch a boat. Now it takes three!<BR/><BR/>The intimate reflections of Stalin's daughter may sound boring, but I heard it was later made into a movie about her strange journey from Milan to Minsk. Village Voice proclaimed it a masterpiece!Westcot2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/00465771382648041516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157943953608089697.post-48689789064309648622008-07-31T14:30:00.000-07:002008-07-31T14:30:00.000-07:00Those kinds of big magazine profiles are always fu...Those kinds of big magazine profiles are always fun to see, especially since in those days that or some special professional promo film was the only chance you ever had of seeing an attraction interior without visiting the park.ericpaddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05880416865587861007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157943953608089697.post-27301443445541502402008-07-30T16:25:00.000-07:002008-07-30T16:25:00.000-07:00Terrific article!

Just imagine Leota Toombs out there pinching his eyebrow fluff into those shaggy tufts. He's really gorgeous.<BR/><BR/>I've had the opportunity in years past to walk through the attraction and stare right into some of those faces. The effect it has on the back of your neck is chilling.Kevin Kidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401940509568134621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157943953608089697.post-47475471685425714972008-07-30T07:52:00.000-07:002008-07-30T07:52:00.000-07:00Yes, that photo of the Saturn V is a beauty, and t...Yes, that photo of the Saturn V is a beauty, and takes me back to the exciting days of real trips to the moon. <BR/><BR/>The "Pirates" article is fun, I love some of the hyperbole that was written about some of the details. Somehow I find it hard to believe that the Imagineers spent MONTHS studying chickens when all they do is move their wings a bit and turn their heads in a chickeny manner. And does the piccolo-playing pirate really move his fingers accurately? Still, at that time people believed that the Imagineers were capable of anything!Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.com
