WHOA! Items of value, you say? Hmmm... You have no idea what I'll do for a bearded dragon! Let's just say it involves 5 sets of chopsticks (the wooden, slivery kind), a child's plastic wading pool filled with Cool Whip, a naked store-front window mannequin (preferably with detachable limbs- you'll see why this is an important fact later in the evening), buckets, and I mean buckets of strawberry kiwi Astroglide and lastly, lots and lots of shaved tennis balls. Also, you are welcome to bring some friends but please, leave your morals behind.

You won't want them when I bring out the vaseline & shotgun.

I think this calls for a tarty mojo for Ally.

Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage Secrets and Facts

• Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage opened on June 11, 2007.

• The Tomorrowland attraction originally opened as the Submarine Voyage in 1959, along with the Matterhorn Bobsleds and the Disneyland Monorail as part of a major Disneyland expansion.

• The Submarine Voyage closed in 1998 and remained closed for 9 years before reopening with a Finding Nemo theme as Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage.

• Disney Imagineers worked with Pixar animators to create the underwater scenes in Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage.

• Disneyland's Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage follows the same track as the original Submarine Voyage.

• For the new attraction, the submarines were converted from diesel to fully electric. Two additional seats were also added to each of the attraction's eight submarines to increase capacity.

• Several of the voice actors from the original "Finding Nemo" movie reprise their roles in Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage.

• Composer Ed Kalnins wrote music that reflects the original Thomas Newman score from the "Finding Nemo" movie.

• To keep the intense colors in the attraction from fading in the Southern California sunlight, Disney Imagineers developed a new technique of "painting" with recycled glass, which will remain vibrant much longer in the sun. More than 30 tons of the recycled glass was used in 40 different shades to bring color to the coral reefs and underwater scenes. Color shades included Mango Mud, Phantom, and Yamber (a color between yam and amber).

• There are 126 animatronic figures, 180 still figures, 10,000 plants, and 23,000 pieces of artificial coral in Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage.

• The original Submarine Lagoon held 9 million gallons of water. With Finding Nemo makeover, the lagoon now holds 6.3 million gallons of water.

• The long-standing urban legend that the Submarine Lagoon could never been drained because it would cause the nearby Matterhorn to collapse was put to rest during Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage's construction, which required the lagoon to be drained for many months.

• References to the original Submarine Voyage include the old sea serpent as well as the old mermaids that used to appear in the original attraction's show scenes.

The Submarine Voyage Secrets and Facts

• The Submarine Voyage opened in 1959.

• The submarines were originally grey in color. However, in the 1980s, they were repainted bright yellow and orange to theme them to an oceanographic research organization.

Okay, I don't do tricks with vaseline and shotguns. Good golly, y'all! Just vaseline & twirling batons of fire. Puh-leeze! I have some klass, ya know!



Now, for reals, My tricks are left in my magical, monogomous bag, only for my boyfriend to see. I'm his sexual Felix.

(Felix that magical cat with his magical bag o' tricks... )

Okay! Back to Subs n' stuff before I creep out LoT members one by one with my open sexuality & freaky ribald jokes & shenanigans. I think I'm scaring some posters away.

But now there is the new question of what to do when you sever a major watery artery.

Global warming - they no longer contain the polar ice cap

You've been on the ride, are you sure you don't know? I'm not being coy, but I wonder if you didn't notice something, and, if you didn't, then I think you'll be more impressed by the attraction than you already are.
