Big and American Adventure meet!
Keane
details...
New faces!
RADP 14's meet and greet went over well. Biggest news, is
Bashful (and Mr. Bashful, sorry, I'm more than terrible with names)
was there! There weren't any planters big enough for them to
hide behind. She handed out small movie clapboard keychains,
commemorating he first RADP meet. I would suggest, we change
her moniker to Bashless. ;-)
I also met a lurker! (And again, that name thing. Post something, so
I can associate your name with your image, dammit! :-))
Steve Russo was there too, but left unexpectedly to join his wife
in getting his room...
That was the first three minutes of the Big Meet. Then Jack came by,
and everything went to hell. ;-)
Meerkat was a new face, too!
Oh, the Queen (and consort ;-)) of Adventureland also graced us with
an appearance...
The Mighty Paragon was there. Interesting talking with her, every
once in a while, I'd say something and she'd think I mentioned a brand
name of a weapons manufacturer. lol. Maybe that's why she's so
fearful. HAhahaha... (We need to go have some alcoholic drinks one
night Paragon, maybe not this trip, but sometime...) I got to see her
silver pass. She wouldn't let me touch it, though.
Nice to see old faces (there's a double entendre). Jack, Julie, Big
Brian, and all the others.
Also went to the Voices of Liberty meet, where I foolishly sat on the
floor under the dome, and lost all feeling and control of my right
foot. But the VoL were amazingly good, as always. They did the
dradle song, and all I could think of was that South Park episode...
Then up to American Adventure, where no matter how many times I see
it, I still enjoy it. A very moving show. We occupied the second and
third rows. (The front row was roped off.)
Anyway, here's a group pic from the general meet, minus a couple of
photographers. (Like me.) This is *not* the official group photo...

Pfft. My brain cells no longer have the ability to remember names.
Wait, they never had the ability to remember names.

Like, which one looks like the likely axe murderer?
Or which one is Bashful? (laugh)
Which one of these shouldn't be at a RADP meet?
The possibilities are endless. Doesn't mean they're desirable, but
they are endless.

Hey! I was there for 45 minutes before SWMBO called and I slinked off. I did
get to meet a lot of people and it was a distinct pleasure (mostly anyway).

Of course ;-) But thanks, Jack, for introducing me around. It's amazing how
you remember all the names and faces but I guess you've been doing this for
45 years ;-)

And there's an interesting story on how I met Bashful before the meet and
intuitively realized who it was (yes, I am psychic).
Hope to see everyone later in the week but I don't think we're braving the

Sorry, didn't mean to imply you left in the first three minutes.
As a matter of fact, I think Steve was the first person I
semi-recognized. (Hard to tell from some 2"x2" picture on the back of
some book that you only read in the bathroom...) ;-)
He was the one who introduced me to Kitty, Mr. Kitty and
Driselaine(?).

Psychic, psychotic...psychic, psychotic... Okay, maybe it's not a
typo...
>Hope to see everyone later in the week but I don't think we're braving the
>MK today!
I get to do an attraction today I've only done once before. It's
called the MCO Cell Lot...
MK, until Wishes last night, was a zoo. A cold, 48 degree zoo. And I
heard my first "I've had enough!" from parent to child, last night.
Welcome to the most Magical Place On Earth!
Let me also voice my displeasure on not firing those huge shells
during the finale of Wishes. The shells that are larger than the
Castle. The only thing they did was do some really cool castle
lighting tricks, but the sky was dark. :-(
But it's also the first time I've seen Wishes where the smoke from the
fireworks went down Main Street, so maybe it was a fallout problem.
Maybe that's why it was so cold, too.
Lisa Cubbon
We will expect a full report on that! I think you can get the
Bears game on the radio.

My back was killing me. I can't kneel, and standing was blocking others,
so....take the stupid picture already! ....and it's not a sweater, it's a
fleece.

If I owned a Glock, I would brag about it. (And no, for all of you
with your minds in the gutter, I was *not* talking about a word that
rhymes with Glock... If you can't figure out what I'm sayin', go ask
your mother... Or your children, depending...)

Yes, I am reading RADP. :-) I think I may have some time to find my way
over to Kidani, Keane. I'm never one to let a good chance for payback

LOL, sometimes it seems like it, Steve. Actually, we've been doing these
meets for 14 years now (thus the RADP XIV designation) so I have the
distinct advantage of knowing many of the people who are now former RADP
posters but still keep coming back to the December meet every year.
After all that time, one tends to remember people. LOL!

day at every park. Such as, show up at the Castle at 11am and wear an RADP tag
or other identifier. Show up at TOT every day at 11am, same routine. That way
you could be spontaneous and meet a few members. If no one showed up that day,
move on to another attraction.
That way you could have a chance to meet someone and shoot the breeze, maybe
grab lunch or just wait around 15 minutes and move on. I've been to a couple of
large meets and they were fun, but I've also stumbled across folks with an RADP
badge and talked for an hour.

Hi Dreslaine!
Sorry to have forgotten your name. But I do it all the time. Bad
guest, bad show. :-)
At least I didn't call you Mr. Bashful... (Sorry Rocky.)
There, did I cover all my apologies?

Keane -
It was wonderful being welcomed into the group at the Big Meet. And
thrilled to be remembered. (Yes I have vanity issues.) Meerkat
thanks for again for your greeting, I hope you are feeling better. I
(literally) thought I was dying when I had kidney stone concerns.
Lisa thank you for your response.
After reading all of you all these years it is liberating to be a
participant. And Rodney, I am the only person in Seattle that doesn't
buy, cook or eat fish. My husband does that when I am not home.

Why don't you just apologize and bank it. That way, if you do something
screwy, you've already apologized for it!

I apologize for whatever I've ever done, or ever will do, whether
I have to apologize for it or not.
Is this like a 'Get Out Of Jail Free' card?

Hi Dreslaine! Yay - you posted! I'm so far behind... all this chatter
I missed last week - but I saw your post and just had to say "hi"! I'm
so glad you decided to come out of the closet! You know that it's all
over now, right? You're officially part of the group, and have no
choice but to stick around and make at least occasional posts. If I can
do it, so can you.
(Really, I would hate to give it up, but I should give you my TDC title,
since it seems I have completely and totally ruined my bashful
reputation this past week. Twelve years of lurking - you beat my record
by a decade!) Seriously, it was wonderful to meet you, and I'm so glad
you decided to speak up! Welcome to the asylum!

Yes, quite bizarre! There I was sitting on a bench, pretending to be
Jane Doe park-visitor, when Steve approaches me, says "I'll bet you're
here for the RADP meet... and I'm guessing you're Bashful." Huh? So
much for my "hiding" skills! I'm completely losing my touch!
(It was nice to meet you, Steve! Thanks for the autograph!)
Bashful
Okay, "Mr. Kitty", maybe he could get over. But this? Thank goodness
DH doesn't know how to read Usenet! (Geez... I've got to bring a laptop
or something with me next time!) What have you started, Keane? LOL.
And yes, thanks Jack - his name is Rocky. No, he's never posted here
before. (And thank goodness he doesn't read this thing!)
(Trying to catch up on a week's worth of posts - sincerely hoping that
this was the worst of it!)
Embarrassing husband comments aside, I did have fun at the big meet (and
a couple of others I made my way to), and I'm glad I got to meet everyone!

I'm so glad we had a chance to really visit for awhile. Honestly, you
and Rocky did SO well - had I not known you were the bashful type I
would not have suspected that it was a stretch for you to come out among
so many people you didn't know and visit like you did. You have both
come a long way - good for you!!!
I have a picture of Rocky taking a picture of the whole group. People
kept handing him cameras, and he kept taking photos! :-) He was a
really good sport about it.
How was your lunch at Sanaa? I hope it was not another
disappointment!
Laura

I'm so glad we got to chat, too! Yes, Rocky was great about taking
photos. I think he rather enjoyed it because it meant he wasn't *in*
the photo, LOL. However, it sounds like you took care of that. (I'd
love to see that one!) (People seem to think he looks like a
photographer - he ends up taking photos for random strangers quite a
bit, too!)
Sanaa was great - most definitely not a disappointment. In fact, our
server was outstanding - she earned the biggest tip we gave during our
trip. I am very happy that at least one restaurant can handle a vegan
without special prior arrangements. (AllEars vegan updates will
definitely be in the works. Thank goodness for 'Ohana and Sanaa - it
won't all be bad.)

And it was nice meeting you and Mr. Bash... er, Rocky, as well. Any
you're welcome.

I plan to put up a photo album on Facebook, but in the meantime I have
the photo in my day 6 blog - it's about 1/4 of the way down:
http://land.allears.net/blogs/lauragilbreath/2009/12/holidays_at_wdw_day_6_1.html
I intentionally took the picture when he had his head behind the camera
so you can't really see his face - figured that would help him keep some
anonymity! :-)

Did you have Mary as your server by any chance? That's who we had on
Wednesday at lunch and she was very good. I'm glad you had two good
dining experiences, at least!
Bashful
Thanks Laura! I'm really enjoying your blog... though it feels a bit
strange to be "in" it, LOL.
This is terrible, but I didn't make a note of our server's name at
Sanaa! Every trip, I try to remind myself to pay attention to CM's
names, and every trip I find myself forgetting or not noticing most of
them. She really went out of her way to explain things, make
suggestions, etc. She worked with us so that Rocky and I could share -
making sure I knew exactly which items were vegan, and which ones
weren't. She split up a bread order for us, so that my vegan bread
wouldn't be "contaminated" by Rocky's non-vegan bread, LOL.
(Honestly, I think I put so much effort into trying to remember all the
RADPers I met that maybe I didn't have any brain cells left for CM's
this time!)

It's Laura's fault. Had she been there, I never would have called him
Mr. Kitty. ;-)

Same with PiC. That's why I can get away with all sorts of
comments...

Well, other than the Mr. Bashful thing...

Glad you could make it. Was nice meeting you and Rocky.

Actually, I was kidding about the 'Bashless' thing... :-)
