And then there was that one time when I was standing next to this guy . . . . .

OK. So I don't post often. Hey! I'm a busy guy! So sue me! I shall attempt to start (in ernest . . . . easy now) with something - from a couple of years ago . . . . I give you, a guy in a shirt



It was "Imagineering Day" at the Disney lot - the day when they roll out of their wonderful toys for all Studio employees to see. I was quite enthralled by this:

When I glanced over and realized the enthusiastic chap I was standing next to was:

Welcome to the Stardust Lounge

Mix yourself a martini, pour yourself a nice scotch or make a MaiTai.

Put on some Martin Denny, Louis Prima or Dean Martin.

If I ever happen to think of anything witty to say, gain some keen insight into the nature of things or think up a brilliant aside - I'll leave it right here in the lounge.

Be patient. . . . . this could take awhile.

But mostly the lounge is a place to kick back and talk about retro cool things. Remembering a time when Pack Mules roamed Frontierland @ Disneyland, Strip casinos were separated by acres of sand and the blue roofs of Stuckey's marked the offramps of America's highways.
