I broke my tailbone I had to limp on back home" :lol:

All this talk about Buffett makes me want to SNAP to the island Caribbean Beach so I can hear his music while strolling across to go swimming.
Awww that is awful!!! Glad you can laugh about it now. :)

Haha I have a similar story, sort of.

Buffett came to Charlotte NC years ago. It was the summer right before I turned 21. But it was me, my mom, and couple of my mom's coworkers and friends. We had a great drive up to Charlotte, there were mooning and flashings up I-85.
When we got there, we started to party, we have a cooler full of Margaritaville margaritas, cheeseburgers in paradise, and all the things we needed. By the time we got into the concert, we were not sober. We were seeing him in an ampitheatre, and the cheapest seats inthe back were on a grass field. So we decided after a bit to go over the metal tailing to the first set of seats, metal bench seats. They all made it but when I tried (had to go fast not to bet caught) I fell and got a HUGE bruise on my side, the top of my hip. But it didnt hurt till the next day. I still have the picture of it somewhere. it is about the size of a small plate and lotsa pretty colors, haha!

This is a tough one. For me it would probably be at Epcot about to watch Reflections of Earth. Then stay after the park closes and feel the magic! :goofy_bounce:

The first thought that came to my mind is run nakey down Main Street. But I'm thinking that would be ill-advised ~ empty park probably still does not allow for streaking like the wind ;) :lol:

I would say fall asleep, but I am writing this at quarter till 1 am and I would be at Disney so I would be wired with excitement I am sure.

I think a nice nighttime ride on Pirates, Haunted Mansion and Small World, the BIG THREE for me in the MK.

Early morning - and I need Tonga Toast for breakfast. Since I'm right at the MK, might as well catch a ride on Splash Mtn while I'm close by, and then a quick photo with Mickey at his new diggs.

Snap my fingers and I'm at the Tiki Room area having a citrus swirl, Which are no longer available. In my opinion the Dolewhips led the demise of the citrus swirl. The dolewhips where so much more popular.

I wouldn't mind the relaxation, but I would rather have a Dole Whip in my hand. :mrgreen:

To forget a Dole Whip must mean you're in serious need of a Dole Whip. :shock: :mrgreen:
