I'm in!!!

I read the 'event' line-up, and it really just pissed me off. If this is all they offer, I can't help but think there will be some sort of backlash. We may be Disney geeks, but we're not stupid. Well, okay- we're still Disney geeks, even after all this sort of crap has been pulled on us, so maybe we are stupid.

I wonder how many rooms they have blocked out for this? "Sold-out", my ass.

Was that similar to the Native American occupation of Alcatraz?

Sure, that sounds like fun...as long as we all wear berets.

We will be the rainbow coalition of berets! I have a few to throw into the mix too.

I thought it was Fezes (what is the correct plural of Fez? Fez? Fezi? Fezeses? )
