Disney Magazine R.I.P.

Tref · 06-08-2005, 11:04 AM

The news is sad but true. Disney magazine has gone to that great publishing company in the sky. I'll miss Dave Smith's column. I'll miss the movie and ride previews. I'll miss getting a new issue in the mail to read.

But most of all I'll miss the look of joy on the faces of my 12 children as I read to them the letters section. Fortunately, we'll still have the arrival of the new issue of New Yorker, to read before sleeptime. So, Georgie, Gladys, Pipeye, Poopeye, Kimiko, Cher II, Stovetop, The Edge, and all the rest of my children will always have joy in the mail.

I do take some comfort in knowing that Disney Magazine is in Heaven now, being delivered personally to Walt Disney's mailbox by Jimi Hendrix.

Jimi has to be a postman in Heaven? Is it because of all the acid? Poor Jimi!

I don't know the whole story, WB, but I heard that Jimi was getting tired of having to jam with each new dead rock 'n roll star. Apparently, the breaking point was when he had to jam with the severed arm of Def Leppard's drummer. "Now, that just creeps me out," said Jimi. "That arm can barely play and I am getting sick of everybody wanting to jam with Jimi."

Was I the only guy who subscribed to Disney magazine?

No-body weeps for DM?

Good-bye, Disney magazine, I hardly read ye.

GusGus (does it make sense to keep referring to my beloved as GusGus since she has never posted here herself?) and I EACH got an issue every month (or whenever it came out) since our passes renew at different times of the year. It was mildly amusing to look at once in a while, but it will never replace my "Tiger Beat"

Jerry O. is going to beat Jimi with that Leppardless, albeit talented, limb if he leaves the Susan Sondheim Trio now! Jerry had just switched from triangle duties to blowing on the jug with the three "x's".

Heaven needs entertainment too, you know.

You know what's always fun? Take the kids into the kitchen and say, "I just love the look of joy on your faces!" And when they all look at each other, wondering what newdaddieTref is up to now, and why, oh, why, did we ever get in the van in the first place, squirt Joy dishwashing liquid at them! Hahahahaha!

Always gets a laugh.

Lol!!!!! Great, Gn2!

Was it that magazine that I'd occasionally receive as an AP benefit, and was never sure if I was actually receiving all the issues or if they were being stolen by my neighbors, and had become increasingly full of ads? That magazine?
Perhaps you'd enjoy this complimentary issue of Disney Insider. Dave Smith, mislabeled pictures, and now, ads that move! Just like before, but more so.

You can print it out if you need to take it into the potty.

Nah, that's what the wireless network and laptop are for.
