Enjoyment of Disney theme parks is directly correlated with the amount of water in the parks. Remove it and the overall experience gets worse.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@TOCPE82 and, this is why I let my Annual Pass run out. I'll pay premium pricing to visit Disney parks, but I won't pay upcharges on top of that. It may be standard practice these days, but Disney used to try to be better than average.

@BrianPMiles @RetroWDW That must've been around the time my family got our first computer, and Apple IIc, though most of my video games were played on the Atari 5200, which I'm pretty sure we had before the home computer. I did enjoy a lot of Micro League Baseball, though.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@alibris Thanks for the response, but I've been checking my spam folder and there's nothing there from Alibris + I just checked again and still nothing.

Hopefully someone responds to the email I sent to the address you mentioned or if you'd prefer, I'll DM you details later today.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@alibris , Do you answer support questions here? I sent in a question using your online form last night and haven't heard anything back. I'll send details if this is a better way to reach you folks.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@alibris ok, I will do that, since I still have not heard anything in response to my original question. Hopefully, someone will respond today or I'll have to order from someone else.

@GoAwayGreen It's different to just have something you buy owned by a foreign adversary vs an entity actively collecting data and also potentially manipulating content you'll see on the platform. That's bad no matter who owns the platform, but worse when it's essentially government controlled

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@BrianPMiles @YouTube Eek. I got out of there a few days ago, apparently just in time!

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@GoAwayGreen Good to hear it's open and lives up to the name. I'll have to add that to my itinerary next time I'm in the area.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@jasondws One of the great things about social media is finding "your" people. Glad you're one of my Disney history friends!

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@GoAwayGreen It's funny how a couple random folks who probably haven't commented on anything you've ever talked about before somehow just happened to find your post and weigh in on how wonderful they believe the owner of this site is

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@BrianPMiles That's more like it. Now I can rest knowing all is right in the world. Thanks for sharing!

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@Wawa I appreciate the reply, but this was breakfast yesterday morning and I've since eaten. Hopefully next time I'm hungry and want a take out sandwich your app will actually let me place an order.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

Why is the @Wawa app so horrendous? I've spent 20 minutes trying to submit a mobile order and everything I do either brings me to an "unknown error" or endless loop of uselessness.

@BrianPMiles @HorizonsOne @TheWickedWench I can't wait to see Walt dancing around in the video

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@ProgressCityUSA @WaltDisneyCo What's really bad about this is the Disney partnered with a company that doesn't run a particularly good sportsbook, even in the modern DraftKings sense of a faux-sportsbook that openly bans anyone with a chance to with. Barstool/Penn Gaming is mediocre at best.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@BrianPMiles @servoisnaked @hintofspy Will there be a vending machine panel at the next RetroMagic? If not, then you should at least bring a cardboard cutout for photo ops.

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@DisneyfiedAsh @jasondws @GoAwayGreen @RetroWDW They could probably do another good behind the scenes recap of trying to find enough boats to make that event happen!

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

Captain @jasondws and @GoAwayGreen , from the first iteration of the @RetroWDW Lake and Lagoon tour in November 2016 (which appeared briefly in the end credits from tonight's #RetroMagic recap)

[Bob Rowan @rowanb73]

@jasondws @GoAwayGreen @RetroWDW lol, I'm not sure I would've set foot on the boat if that were the case!
