DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

[pkondz]

I'm probably a little gun-shy on this, but my dad messed up his knee mowing the lawn, and it's still not right. He's worried it might need surgery but obviously that's not a priority for doctors/hospitals right now. So I just don't want to see you in that same boat.

That's a good point. Now is not the time to be in need of medical attention.

Top O the Mornin Dads! Not much around here, just tired I guess. Tired of the craziness going on at work and just tired of this whole COVID-19 stuff but what are ya gonna do. Have a good one and stay safe.

WDW top 3 for today.............. Top 3 current (as of March 15 this year) shows excluding HEA and EPCOT forever as figuring those would be on most lists. Looking to see what stage shows, parades or other nighttime shows everything thinks are tops.

For the record on best themed roller coaster

Everest

Before the rainy weekend, DW and I got the garden fertilized and ready to plant. Tomatoes, zucchini, squash, cucumbers, & hot peppers are the plan. If I get a deer in the fall, hoping to eat lots of chili all winter. We enjoyed burgers on the grill and the firepit this evening. On a sad note, a friend got laid off for the month of May with 400 others for the plant to shut down.

Had an email this morning that 60 were to be laid off today. I didn't get a call, so there's 2 more days to Wednesday's phone conference.

Hang in there Norm, thinking of you

I also excluded Fantasmic.
Tree of Life Awakenings. Very impressed with it. (As opposed to RoL… boring.)
I recently saw Frozen singalong for the first time... thought it was really good.
I like the 3pm parade in MK, but never sure what time it starts. (And I don't normally like parades.)

Honorable mention to Hoop De Do

I'm sure when the new Cirque show starts (and people are allowed to see it), it'll be spectacular.

I would NOT put HEA as one of the top. Still miss wishes. I know they'll never bring it back, but THAT would have been on the top of the list. While HEA is not the bottom of the heap (that would be ROL), it still bothers me because there's so much projection, you end up missing the fireworks and it's also just a mish mash of movies...no real story line.

Dang... didn't think of parties...
I'll amend my answer and put MNSSHP parade as #1 and fireworks as #2.

Hoop De Doo - unlimited beer?!? Fried chicken??? oh you said show - yeah the show is good too!

Voices of Liberty - we've got to see them sing each trip - truly amazing voices.

Love VOL. Sometimes, though, depending on who I'm with, there are other items on the agenda and if the timing isn't right, VOL can be a long wait.

I may also have a swing at a Nanaimo Bar (I think that's how you spell it). So Darcy, Ponzie, Rob or Jeff if you have a good recipe, let us know.

Give this one a try, pretty much the one my Mom makes.

Our idiot governor has decided that come the middle of May everyone is going to have to start wearing masks in public. Guess I have a couple of weeks still to go around spreading germs.

No opinion on best current show as it has been too long since my last visit.

I googled nanaimo bar. If somebody ships me some I'll offer an opinion but it doesn't look like something I will be attempting.

I'm guessing Primeival Hurl is not high on your list of must do's then?

Never been on it though I did the teacups with the kids when they were little. When I was a kid I enjoyed the spinning things but age has messed up my inner ears.

Dang, I might be able to do that keto. Icing sugar? Is that what we would call confectioners (or powdered) sugar vs. granulated?

So basically anything but the night-time shows, then? I haven't seen Epcot Forever. I think I liked Wishes over HEA, although HEA was impressive in person up close. I'm not a huge fan of Fantasmic or Rivers of Light.

And I tend to avoid all of the parades and daytime shows so I can go on more rides.

So, with that said...

FOTLK
Indiana Jones Stunt Show
And I really liked the Star Wars lights/fireworks/whatever it's called at DHS.

With a special nod to Voices of Liberty.

I like the 3pm parade in MK, but never sure what time it starts.

10:00 a.m.

Wow. But I hear June is hazmat suit month.

10:00 a.m.

Thanks! Now I know when to grab a spot on the curb.

Yep, but to get a good spot, you need to be there no later than 9:15. Just sit and wait and you'll be rewarded....soon.

Don't ask me for my definition of soon.

Cheers buddy, I will definitely give that a swing. They look awesome, but I'd never heard of them before yesterday.

Every Canadian has eaten them. They’re a staple at gatherings. But they have coconut so that’s a no for me.

That would be correct sir.

I think the same could be said of Rednecks.

Kinda like Jeet.

Jeet yet? Nope. Joo?

Let me know if you need translation.
