Rumors, Facts, and Lies....Al 5/9/06 - Page 24

I really don't care how accurate Al's reports are, he will never be 100% accurate on what he states..
Unless you are sitting in the room with the people who make the decisions, when they are making the decisions it's all second, third hand information...
I stopped reading his stuff just because I feel his writings to be a bit egotistical, as if he is the "know it all".. So to me it's all still rumors, innuendo, and speculation...

Thanks Michael & staff keep up the good work here at MI..

So, am I "close"?

The financial reports from Disney show gate to be about 1/3 of the revenue, with lodging and purchases(food + fun stuff) each being a 1/3 as well. Since this includes the WDW resort, I'd say DLR goes 40% gate, 40% purchases, 20% lodging.

Great news and bad news.....

How about Incredibles has been approved at DCA and Woody's roundup given the thumbs down at DL.

Yes. I'm on the Atkins diet now to take care of it.

I hope that Incredibles got approved as the good news and maybe the bad news is that the golden gate bridge may not go.

Michael, your post in "Rumors, Facts, and Lies" brought me to tears. I mean, we walk all over you every day without saying anything besides a hello! You made me feel like a somebody today, instead of another passing face in a Disney crowd. Your post made me see that I am a pure source of evil, for never saying thank you. I will go peel oranges over my cuts now.

In all seriousness, I've never said thank you for the past three years. Your and others dedication to the workings of this site have made this site home for me for quite a while.

Thank you!

EDIT: I'm so slow. This was like, so three pages ago.
