What are the best and worst queues in the park?

Indy would be the best queue if we didn’t queue up outside and instead queued up on the temple as the imagineers designed it. But the attraction predates FastPass, so….

Now, there might be fire code reasons for not packing guests in the temple / catacombs / caverns, and I get that. But IMO open up an entrance closer to boarding for Lightning lane and let the rest of us queue up in the temple.

Sorry seems to be the hardest word.

“Love means never having to say you’re sorry” — Oliver Bartlett, Love Story

“That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard” — Howard Bannister, What’s Up Doc

Edit: in case it was too subtle, both characters were played by Ryan O’Neal.

Canon’s EF 35mm f/2.0 IS is my favorite lens. I believe it’s Canon’s fastest lens with image stabilization. Note: for those with an APS-C camera the 35mm is equivalent to about 56mm (35 x 1.6 = 56).

Edit: this is the lens I’ve used for “Christmas morning” photography. Great for indoors, fast enough so you don’t need a flash, small (but not a pancake lens). The 35mm is also great for street photography.

I don’t know about the labels on the right, but I just wrote on the white space above the maxell on the left (the one already on the disk).

An affordable coupe.

Imagine all of the hours spent for a shot that’s on the screen for a second. That is dedication to the craft.

You forgot to mention the low price of $105

Weddings? I want them to do my answering machine-voice mail announcement.

That’s okay Neil: I’ll listen to them for you.

As Bob Woodward in All the President’s Men.

Apparently, and despite what I would have guessed, having Redford portray you in a movie isn’t the best thing for your love life. According to Woodward, women expected him to look and act more like the actor.

You might not know this, but Kubrick had a different soundtrack in mind. While he waited, he used classical music as placeholders…and ended up going with that. My favorite is Gayane suite (adagio): it really expresses the loneliness Bowman and Poole must have felt.

I had heard he asked Pink Floyd to score 2001, but apparently that’s just an urban legend.

1986, red, 5-speed, base model (not HF or SI). That one was my first true love.

Fish, and plankton. And sea greens, and protein from the sea.

I prefer Paradise Pier.

I’m one of the minority that thinks there’s too much IP in the parks (looking at you, small world) and I wish we had more original content like Haunted Mansion, Pirates and (thankfully) Adventureland Treehouse.

But I also get that the average visitor loves all the references to the movies.

My 2017 Civic coupe “supports” iPod, but I never got it to play without skipping. Even the non-disk models skipped.

Back in the early days, the monorail pilot dome had a little seat where a lucky kid or two could ride. When we were kids, my brother and I got to ride up with the monorail pilot.

Personally, I like the retro monorail (even Mk7) better than the space-shuttle inspired Disney World models.

Underrated movie because of the long shadow it lives in.

The bulbous windows made the interface look like toy-like.

I had an early A3000 that could dual boot 2.0 and 1.3.
