Fireworks at disneyland at 11:30 last night

[innerSpaceman]

First of all, we don't allow naked posting on the LoT, so get back to bohemian weekend.

Second, yeah that's the way I might say it if I were crass enough to do that. But when I close Disneyland for my private party, it will be at 10:00 p.m., right after fireworks. 'Cause my private party goes to 7am. And because I'm not kicking people out of Disneyland before they've had a normal (winter hours) operating day at their expensive disposal.





Huh? ... we do allow naked posting on the LoT. Oh ... hold on a minute ....

Yeah, put me in the "it's a non-issue" camp. She's sixteen and has been working hard. She deserves to have a little fun. It was on a Sunday night in the beginning of October - it's not like she shut down the park on July 17th.









BTW: I am wearing shorts and a short, although the shirt is unbuttoned.

What about drunken, naked posting?

You're wearing two pairs of shorts? One for each leg??

Well, I'm usually not drunk, but I may be Neekid at times......



A little-known fact is that I'm a nudist at heart. I've even mowed the back yard in the buff!

Damned typo: shorts and a SHIRT

Some things just should not be done nude. Not for modest but for concerns over flying things hitting sensitive parts.

No matter how she said it, it was a hard-ticketed event with profits that went to Disney. It doesn't really change anything, except for pointing out that the wealthy pop star is being somewhat left outside the loop about all of the business dealings.

They also donated $1 million to Youth Service America.

Yay!

Upon further thought I have decided that when I put what she said through the filter of a 16 year old, well it's pretty damn cool. It was a Sunday, it was no different then closing it down for Grad nights in the summer or special events at xmas.

Well, I'm glad I figured out why there was fireworks at 11:30 on a sunday.

As far as why this party happened- it's simple. It was pretty much a big hunk of advertising for both Disneyland and the Disney Channel.

I think Miley got the best deal out of it all with a great "Sweet 16" birthday party (though she was working at the same time), and some fans may have enjoyed it as well. Not to mention the $1,000,000 donation.

It's what Disney does best, synergy in advertising.

The only ones unhappy were the ones trying to sleep when the fireworks went off. 11:30 or 12 midnight is when I usually go to bed so I got to watch Miley's fireworks and was not upset at all.....

I don't think they really made a direct profit from the party. The advertising may help the bottom line but at $250 per ticket for 5,000 tickets that's 1.25 million. They gave 1 million to charity. I'm pretty sure they spent the other $250,000 on expenses. Of course there's the tax write-off of the donation, but it sounds to me like a great way to get "free advertising".
