There's a lot going on with the boards this week. Halloween is creeping into
all of the parks, MiceChatter's are getting ready to visit Knott's
Scary farm's Halloween Haunt, and there may be a remake of Bedknobs
and Broomsticks in the works, as well as a Tomorrowland... (wait
for it) movie. But the BIG BIG news is our upcoming MiceChat Invasion
of Walt Disney World and the WDW Gumball Rally. It's not too late
to join us! - Fishbulb
The
MiceChat Gumball Rally is going to
Walt Disney World: October 18th, 2008!
If you haven't made plans
yet now is the time to do it. The WDW Gumball Rally is right
around the corner and airfares have never been more affordable.
If you are interested in joining us, or you are a Florida
local, then get signed up right away by visiting the link

This is a
fun, inexpensive, totally new way to experience all four
parks in one day by competing against fellow MiceChatters
in a race to see all that WDW has to offer. Whether this
is your first visit to WDW or your hundredth, this event
was designed for you to have a great time:

for any great length of time. Rex Dopey24 starts

story about a terrible job? Jump in here and compare notes with
the rest of the working stiffs.
