“I hope you’re all satisfied. You bankrupted a multi-million dollar hotel. They weren’t thinking about the money. They just wanted to tell a story. A story about a “Galactic Starcruiser” and you slick small-towners took ‘em for all they were worth.”

[ScreenRant @screenrant]

After spending 8 incredible months working at the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, I can tell you what everyone's getting wrong about this experience. https://t.co/p510YApBDD

To walk in the footsteps of The Bradys is my only goal in life

SCORE!!
Found a 1973 PotC sculpture at the antique mall. 🏴‍☠️

I don’t mind the “what” as much as the “how.”
Starting in the 1960s is too recent.
“Remember TV, phones, and space travel?”
Yeah, we have those things now.
Needs a clear before and after.

It’s the “Carousel of Progress”, not the “Carousel of Incrementalism.”

Thought it might interest some of your followers to see my three WDW Lake Buena Vista Shopping Village employment photos from 1976 & 1977, at Lite Bite & Heidelberger's Deli:

When EPCOT Center meets the WDW Village, you get the 1982 International Festival!

Pre-World Showcase event that was definitely the prototype of EPCOT’s vibe for the next 4 decades.

R.I.P. to artist Ed French.

@bunny_wars Stop what you’re doing.
Locate a copy of THE COMPLEAT BEATLES (1982)
Watch the part when they play “Tomorrow Never Knows” while they zoom around that album cover in a psychedelic freakout.

Now, imagine being a kid like I was.

[Rush is a Band @rushisaband]

10 years ago today, on August 1, 2015 - #Rush plays the final show of the "R40 Live" tour at the LA Forum, in what would prove to be their final live show *ever*. Many rock celebs were on hand, and the band treated the crowd to "Losing It" with Jonny Dinklage on electric violin https://t.co/xnVabIWp6l

[The Manimal @WorldofManimal]

@webmaster_major Ooooo.
Need to check that one out.

Music is a powerful thing for sure.
