Happy Birthday, Uncle Walt

[flippyshark]

Very appropriately, I just today received in the mail my latest Olszewski piece, in this case, the Main Street Station. It's loverly, and I am going to have a little dedication ceremony for it as I put it in my D'land curio cabinet, along with the Castle, Hub and City Hall. (Glass doored curio cabinets are a must for collectors with cats.)

I recently finished the very detailed Neal Gabler biography of Uncle Walt. It was a little slow going at times, but packed with information, certainly an easy recommendation for anyone who wants a very complete account of a remarkable life.

Here's a Walt quote you don't see too often, from the minutes of a story meeting on Fantasia:

"A ballerina comes out, a graceful, beautiful girl, and she puts a little sex into the damn thing... when she whirls up, you see the panties and her little butt - it will be swell! The audience will rave if you can make them feel Sex in a flower." Walt Disney
