Well it is that time of the year again. I have finally gone through the entire site and replaced all the copyrights with an SSI so I don’t have to update each page every year. Looking at some of the photo galleries, I realized that most of the photo detail pages don’t have copyrights. I decided “uh that’s ok!” because it will be a daunting…
December 27, 2001It’s Christmas time and in the Southland it must mean temperatures in the 70’s. Things have been crazy at DL, it is amazing how much work goes into such a low paying job. I did discover a secret though. If Christmas Eve is a weekday than the resort is not as crowded as it is on weekends and the days after Christmas. A little tip…

December 19, 2001One of the links on Mike Seery’s web site is to the now-defunct Highway 17 Page of Shame. It is no longer around which in itself is a shame. The page documented really bad drivers on Highway 17 through the Santa Cruz mountains that this guy would encounter during his commute. Today, it occurred to me that if I started an I-5 Page of Shame…
December 18, 2001Wednesday, Paul was kind enough to send me 2 free tickets to either Disneyland, CA Adventure, Disneyland Paris or to use as park hoppers at Walt Disney World. The best part, is that these tickets do not expire until 2003. It was something out of the blue that I forgot was a perk of the job, but I was feeling kinda down that day and…
December 14, 2001I have the scanner blues. Lemme ‘splain. I have a 3 year old SCSI scanner from Umax. It came with a SCSI card and with my old machine it was fine and dandy. Sadly, the new computer only has PCI slots and therefore the old SCSI card will not work. So I went off to Fry’s to get a new one. Now, I didn’t want…
December 11, 2001Another couple of late shifts at DL for private parties. The most memorable moments from the first night occurred in the middle of my rendition of “Chim Chim Cher-ee” from Mary Poppins… Last night’s highlight was the swapping of DL ghost stories. At Walt’s Birthday on Wednesday, I was disappointed that they ran out of cake, but I was happy to snag an awesome poster…
December 7, 2001It seems weird that people are celebrating the birth of someone who has been dead for 35 years, but The Disney Company is throwing a party today, and I intend to be there. I especially want to see what they are serving in the restaurants. It seems they are serving Walt’s favorite foods in some of them. So far, I know Chili in a bread…
December 5, 2001I finally got Norton Antivirus installed on my laptop. The latest worm that is going around has been sent to me about 20 times now from people who have been looking at my Charo page. Thankfully, I removed my contacts from Outlook Express long ago (I know, I know, I only use it on my laptop for quick e-mail checks). I hope no one got…
November 30, 2001What a crazy week this has been! We have been running around looking at apartments and I have been fitting in errands and chores between monster DL shifts. This week is the private parties for Disney employees, and I have worked all three. They are lots of fun to work because the park is pretty quiet, and the Disney employees are nice and behave. As…
