My mother in law runs a better deal through companies like Walgreens and Menards. Walgreens is the real killer example:

What she does is mark all the monthly items that are free or near-free after rebate. The rebates are given to you in the form of a Walgreens gift card, so as long as you maximize your rebatable purchases, and use ONLY THAT MONEY to buy the next month's set of rebatable items, you can parlay the money for a number of months and get a real stream of usable products (soap, shampoo, health items, etc).

So say I put Shigeru Miyamoto on the street holding a Mario doll. Would *he* get 44 glances?

I also didn't recognize any of these gallery owners and museum curators telling me that the Tuymans was the man. For all I know, they're making it up.

Like many have said before, all I see is an echo chamber.

Is the Adventurer's Club at Pleasure Island still open? There's still hope for some small amount of improv at WDW if it is.

One of my favorite memories of Disney World as a kid was waiting in the Mansion line outside and watching an extremely impatient guy pester the Host at the front door about the start time of the next show.

The Host, without missing a beat and in a deep deadpan gloomy voice simply said "Your time....will come...." and closed the door on the guy. A priceless moment.
