TL
Skyway station, What will it become now?
Timekeeper has been keeping an eye on things
down here and wonders what's going to happen to the old Skyway

it your best shot here!
Wow

Proradvlx sums it up in this headline and adds
some further detail in the text. Get some good advice on where
to eat in this excellent post!
Is
Fantasyland's expansion just a Fantasy?
Kidgenie has heard promises before about upcoming
Disney park upgrades that never materialized. So now he wonders
how all this ballyhooed plussing of Fantasyland is going to
happen when there isn't anything to see yet. Call in the wrecking
ball and let's get this show on the road!
Espresso
fix easily had?
All4dISNEY is a Washingtonian who can't live
without her daily fix of black plasma. Since she is visiting
WDW later this year, she needs to make arrangements soon to
either find a suitable coffeehouse or import her own espresso
machine. Any ideas on how she can feed her Disney and caffeine
demons at the same time?

After
38 years, Dick Cook resigns as head of Walt Disney Studios
Rather suddenly, Dick Cook announced he is leaving the Walt
Disney Company after 38 years. Early reports from Cook were
that he was fired, Disney has reported that he resigned. No
final word as to why Cook was fired or resigned has yet been
determined although rumors point to his presentation at D23
and appearance by Johnny Depp.
Coaster
Accident at Knotts Berry Farm ' Xcelerator cable snap caught
on tape
Knott's 'Xcelerator' coaster had a cable snap while the ride
was launching last Wednesday, giving minor injuries to two riders.
It's important to note that while the ride did malfunction causing
the injuries, the safety features on the ride worked as designed,
preventing any additional injuries.
