Ahem, excuse me, tikimen, (clears throat)...
I happen to have a zombie in my hand as I type this (and I feel like a zombie as I'm at the end of writing my last bunch of Tiki Magazine stories), so I like to think that kind of helps inch this fine thread back toward whence it came.

However, since John-O mentioned me twice in this thread, I'd like to respond to the ETR portion, as it means something to me. Here goes:

John-O,
I'll happily escort you back through Disneyland anytime you want to go and regale you with more nerdisms and tales of Imagineering. Dole Whip on me. And I pride myself on being a Disney Nerd (aka: "smart", thank you!), since I'm a big believer in the quote "The ultimate fan transcends fandom and does it himself" (Clem Burke, drummer for Blondie, one of my rock idols) -- which is why I used to drive 104 miles roundtrip to work there everyday (way back, when gas was less expensive). I did that just to find out how Disneyland really works and what makes it so special. But, nerd, though I am, I actually have very little Disney memorabilia in my house, because it's all in my brain. Yeah, I could go on about this, but I won't here, because I respect the TC code of... whatever.

Hope to see you all at Tiki Oasis!

Con Mucho Aloha,
Kari
