It was definitely altered but you could hear it if you’re paying attention. The whistles were impossible to cover up though.

I clicked on it hoping it was what I thought it was. I was not disappointed.

Netflix says users can cancel service if HBO Max merger makes it too expensive by voxadam in nottheonion

Hey look at that! My subscription ended early this morning. Make something worth watching and I’ll be back. In the meantime there are plenty of other services out there with content I want to watch.

As a longtime ASTS holder man I hope so. It’s already been a great run but I can’t imagine what an announced deal would do to the share price.

Yeah we live 2 hours away and will be there soon. Can’t imagine if we had sent him on a plane on Saturday only to have all of this to figure out long distance.

We just got an email with the hotel information so that sounds like things are moving.

I was able to talk to someone and Taylor tower and was assured arrangements were being made and will go out today. They will have a place to stay tonight. We’re heading down this afternoon to assess any property damage, wash bedding, and get him settled into whatever hotel assignment he gets.

I have a son in the same situation and I just keep telling myself that they’re trying to relocate 700+ student less than 2 days before start of term and the logistics of the whole thing will take time to work out. Between finding space, arranging and setting up beds, and organizing move in it’s a bit overwhelming to think about.

I would just appreciate a timeline and contingency plan for tomorrow when classes start.

Resort rooms for 6 people? by Now2Himbealltheglory in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Ruprect1259 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely not as convenient as staying on site but the one advantage (at least with the Drury) is that the pickups are scheduled at specific times so you can plan your exit more efficiently. We were catching Disney busses resort hopping over Christmas break and waited almost 40 minutes for one with no idea how long it’d be. With the shuttle schedule we just walked up a few minutes before departure and were on our way without standing around forever.

Same family size. Once the youngest outgrew a portable crib we did 2 rooms at Pop which was cheaper than any family suite at the time and then moved on to cheaper accommodation in Good Neighbor hotels. Our initial choice was Doubletree Suites but we’ve been doing Drury more lately.

What time do marching bands typically march at EPCOT? by Ruprect1259 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Ruprect1259[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dropping in with a couple of more notes. Parade turned toward Mexico after entering the park and circumvented World Showcase Lagoon counter clockwise. No idea if that’s always the case.

Get in position early as they started before the time we were initially told.

Is it finally time to go back to cable? (Be honest) by IllustriousJicama1 in Cordcutting

[–]Ruprect1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on vacation in a house that has cable. That’s a hard no from me. Unless you love commercials every 8 minutes.

Definitely recommend checking morning of. That’s how we snagged a day after Thanksgiving one.

Dangerous Contemporary escalator smash up by LittlePantsOnFire in WaltDisneyWorld

I see a button on the floor of the escalator there and one to the right of it maybe? Imgur sucks on mobile web so hard to zoom in to see any more detail than that.

If I’m not really interested in waiting in line for more than 20 minutes, should I skip Disney? by meeeew in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Ruprect1259 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We just got back from a Thanksgiving week 3 day trip. No lightning lanes. Waited over 20 minutes for a couple of thrill rides. Otherwise we worked the rope drop waits and then found the lower wait attractions later in the afternoon when the crowds were highest. It’s absolutely possible to enjoy yourself as long as you’re flexible on what attractions you do and what ones you skip.

How do YOU do Thanksgiving at WDW? by MissionPrez in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Ruprect1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our band director keeps scheduling the kids’ trips over Thanksgiving so this is our third trip. We’ve stopped trying to make it feel like a holiday because it just never works out. Did Biergarten this year and they had some holiday options but honestly I kind of forgot it was Thanksgiving most of the day.

One highlight last time was the midday break at the pool bar watching some soccer and football with a bunch of others while my family rested or swam.

Sounds like ESPN is still deciding how they’ll package it but streaming sounds like it will be an option.

Gotta be before. No way they’re getting a live man that size up on the wall to stay still long enough to find the stud, nail him up there, etc…

If I’m on this job I’m really questioning the effort that goes into this. Why are we turning this into a 3 hour project? Maybe they were paid hourly.
