So for the past month, I’ve been planning a December trip to Walt Disney World. (I haven’t been since the mid-80s, shortly after Epcot opened.) Lots of research required to determine when to go (all adults, so we were looking for an off-time), which hotel to stay in (Swan), and which restaurants to reserve for dinner (which you can do 6 months ahead of time, and you have to to get some of the best ones).
In all my reading, I’ve been trying to keep up with what’s going to change at the park by that time. The big announcement is that Disney is closing Pleasure Island, their group of nightclubs and dance venues, in September. No big loss — we weren’t interested anyway — except for the Adventurers Club, which I just learned about. If Disney was smart, they’d move it to the Animal Kingdom area, which is lacking in attractions compared to the other parks anyway.
The story that made me feel like I was really...

Team Update: Sunday From: sienasaintsblog.com Post Date: 2008-12-02 05:43:06
An appropriate 7:00 wake-up call began our last day in Orlando. After a brief breakfast and meeting the team met at the vans to drive over to the Milk House at about 8:30. The usual stretch and warm up, and our fifth game of the year had begun.
The first ten minutes of the game was very back and forth with quick baskets being scored by both teams. However, the last ten minutes were dominated by the Cowboys who went into the half up 14. For the third straight game Siena dominated the beg... more

Arguably Disneyland’s best attraction ever, the Haunted Mansion turns 40 next year. In honor of this anniversery, Disneyland has enlisted the super hipster artist Shag to create a series of pieces of art based on different parts of the attraction. The results are pure awesomeness.

Out of the Darkness From: feeds.feedburner.com Post Date: 2008-11-02 12:19:22
Out of the Darkness af Peter David er tredje bog i Legions of Fire trilogien, der foregår i universet omkring tv-serien Babylon 5. Det er ikke nogen hemmelighed, at jeg er mere end vild med Babylon 5. Universet er fantastisk opbygget og historier og karakterer holder hele vejen. Tilbage i 1994, da Babylon 5 startede var det meget usædvanligt at have en forfatter, der fra afsnit 1 vidste hvad der skulle ske hele vejen igennem til sidste afsnit - det gjorde J. Michael Straczynski og hans overblik ... more

Tokyopop Reorganizes From: comicsworthreading.com Post Date: 2008-06-04 04:43:28
Tokyopop is splitting into two companies : one for the traditional publishing, and a new company, “Tokyopop Media”, for film and digital production.
Tokyopop’s been interested in the latter for a while now, talking about trying to get comics on cellphones and creating online media to promote titles. The general impression is that they have to be more creative — most of the prominent Japanese manga titles are now tied up by competitors Viz and Del Rey. That also expla... more
Sundome Book 2 From: comicsworthreading.com Post Date: 2008-06-04 04:35:59
Review by Ed Sizemore
This volume picks up literally the next day after book one ended. Kurumi Sahana, the female lead, is home sick, and the members of the Roman club wonder if anyone knows what’s wrong with her. Hideo Aiba, the male lead, calls her, and Kurumi tells him to come over. We discover that Kurumi lives by herself in a one-room apartment. Hideo is scared to ask, so we never learn, where her parents are or how she came to her current living circumstances.
