• A Funny Thing Happened in my Pants


    I finally started to dig through all the shaky video I took at Disney World, finally taking advantage of all the iMovie and iDVD and iWhateverElse I’ve been paying for with every OS X update. It’s reasonably fun, but it sure takes a hell of a lot of time. And I’ve learned it’s crucial to…

  • The Honeymoon’s Over


    I remember when a new announcement from Apple would have me visibly excited and reaching for my wallet. I even waited around today for Pacific Time to catch up so I could see what all the hoopla was about. And the experience was like when you have to go see that distant cousin who’s a…

  • Hoist up the John B sails


    I finally got back to Georgia from Orlando on Friday night. Even after a month and a half in Orlando and being very ready to leave, it still ended kind of abruptly. It would’ve even been nice to have one more day there as a non-working guest, instead of just one minute being at Epcot…

  • Our President Has Stones


    Say what you will about George W Bush, the guy’s got balls. After invoking the memory of the brave dead, he described our enemies: We have learned that they are evil and kill without mercy, but not without purpose. We have learned that they form a global network of extremists who are driven by a…

  • Wet


    I got this weekend off, so I’m cramming into two days all the stuff I imagined I’d be doing when I first heard I was going to be spending a month at Disney World. Even though I’ve been to Disney World more times than a normal person would admit to, I still see something new…

  • You Still Know What I Did Last Summer


    The Orlando Sentinel put up a video covering the Team Possible game at Epcot, and it came out pretty good. You can watch it here (assuming you’re running Windows; I can’t figure out how to get it to play in Safari). The video has a lot of interviews with the VP of Imagineering R&D talking…

  • Tropical Depression


    When I’ve been to Disney World before, the trips have never been quite long enough, and I’ve wondered how long it would take for me to get tired of all of it. It turns out the answer is two and a half weeks. Entering week three here, I can say that this is the most…

  • You Know What I Did Last Summer


    It looks like it’s finally safe to talk about what I’ve been working on for the past year. (With the reminder that this is a personal blog and neither I nor this website is a representative of the Disney company. I don’t speak for them, they don’t speak for me, etc.) It’s a playtest for…
