Worked for the Mouse, then roamed around the country writing ghost tours, and then ran away and joined the circus. And I’ve had fun doing it all!

@OpenMothersMale Great show!

@JimShull I remember when I was at WDI/FL when a California Imagineer showed up with the first portable Mac, about the size of a briefcase! It was groundbreaking to us!

@SixMilesTall Honestly didn’t even know the golf courses were still in operation!

@Cartarsauce @Hertz Funny, I went through a similar incident with Hertz a few weeks ago in DC, and this clip kept going through my mind!

@PenguinSix Is there an alternate landing area for Marine One, or do they just not use it during all this?

@HarrisonHighto2 I remember having a delayed opened at WDW’s Big Thunder back in the 80’s because the water in Flash flood was “too milky colored” - we would have freaked out if it was blood red like this!

@seafoamsafari I recently had dinner with one of those mailbox names! Glad to see their name is still up there!

@GreenCheetah99 @Rocky_ioa I was at the WDI party for Tiana (WDW) and once it finally came back up from its second downtime, I boarded and got about a third of the way through before it broke down once again, and I had to be evacuated off it! Not a good omen..,

@Skipper_Hoss I was just in LA and saw the JAWS 50th exhibit at the Academy museum… great stuff!

[Mike Bounds @mbounds]

@seafoamsafari I just got back from DC and had sushi with Old Bay on it… not bad, actually !

@TheHorizoneer I was just in LA, and seeing both the Hollywood sign and the Observatory always gives me goosebumps!

@VitalVegas @LasVegasLocally What’s going to happen to the Bonnie and Clyde death car?!

@imderekbell @mariannwolfebe1 @diservations @DrewDisneyDude I worked Big Thunder in the 80’s, and hearing that breakdown spiel still sends a shiver up my spine!

@Kris00318613460 It was created for a WDW photoshoot…

To commemorate the re-opening of Big Thunder Mountain, I’ll share a picture of one of my prized possessions from my days as a “miner”. 😎

@Parkeology I was working the Hall of Presidents in the summer of 1982, so needless to say, my mind was blown when I saw the American Adventure during Epcot employee previews! Truly was “the dawn of a new era”

[Mike Bounds @mbounds]

@Parkeology @jimkocher Watching the “war wagon” in use during a show is quite the spectacle!

@StoliarSteve Always wondered about the legality of them using their stage names on legal documents. Was there ever a legal name change, or was it just a simpler time when you could do such things ?

@SixMilesTall I’ll take a keelboat and we’ll race!
