best and brightest. This week Disneyland's Adventureland gets overrun by Indiana

WDW
Gay Days Meet - June 7th - Magic Kingdom
Howdy Chatters, we'll be holding another of our popular Walt Disney
World meets on the Saturday of Gay Days - June 7th at the Magic
Kingdom.
11:30am on the Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station lower terrace
(just to the right of the Tomorrowland entrance off the hub).
We'll be in the covered seating area in the corner nearest the
Castle/Hub.
We'll meet and chat for about half an hour. Anyone who would
like to join us for lunch is welcome to do so immediately following
the meet. If the Noodle Station is open, we'll eat there - Otherwise,
we'll go to Harbour House (we like to get tables upstairs).
We'll be sure to catch the afternoon parade - always a lot of
fun on Gay Days.
We look forward to seeing you all very soon!

Indy should have stopped at three. |

Please
Remove Your Hat Werner Weiss writes: There are times when wearing a hat is polite and appropriate.
And there are times when it's impoliteeven downright
rudeto wear a hat. For example, wearing a hat inside
a movie theater blocks the view of the screen for the people
behind you.
It takes a really big hat to block the view of the outside
of a movie theater. And it's a particularly rude when it
destroys what once was a memorable and delightful vista.
Do you agree?

As we move closer and closer to summer, it looks like the information
