I think we need our own logo. Looks like we already have a support group.

I like that idea too. Now about that fininacial support...

**Disney05** · 09-09-2007, 07:26 AM

How about a logo with a silhouette of a "man", head held high, arms crossed, Mickey standing by his knee, all in front of Cinderella Castle?

Another male Disney fanatic checking in.
Ulitimate litmus test for you love of Disney? Your wife buys you a Mickey antenna topper for the car you drive every day. Do you use it?
(I'm ashamed to admit...I'm too chicken to put it on my car) However, on our last trip down I did buy the entire disney fan decal family (including little dog) and couldn't wait to put it on the rear window of my wife's minivan. When my friends laugh and raise their eyebrows, I just say.. my wife's a disney fanatic... what can I do?!?!

I can't believe I just found this thread!!! I can echo about 9/10ths of what you guys are sayin'!!! The only thing different with myself and some of you guys is that I don't even bother trying to hide it!!! I LOVE disney and everyone knows it!!! At the office when they bring new employees in to meet me the new employee usually says something like " Wow, look at all the Disney stuff! " I have many souvenirs as well as Disney animation art. I haven't done as much huntin' & fishin' as I have in years past, but I can replace a fill-valve for a toilet or brake pads on my DW's mini-van like it is second nature. Why they still tease me about that sometimes at the office I'll never know! They have a lifetime warranty and their replaced for free and it only takes me 30 - 40 mins. to put them on!!! I've also replaced a water heater,garbage disposal,dishwasher,stove & etc. I guess we've all pretty much said the same thing really. Buck up for your family & get things done but also don't forget to be an old softy sometimes!!!

Our Disney memories are some of our greatest!!!!! Luckily I am fortunate that my DW & DK's LOVE it as much as the ol' man!!!

let's have a Motto & Logo contest, everyone submit a Motto and Logo suggestion and we could choose one by acclaim.

Logo: I Like Disney 05's suggestion

Motto: Of Mouse and Men (sorry Steinbeck)

**BigT4187** · 09-18-2007, 09:05 AM

Count me in as well! I am a 37 year old father of two boys (ages 4 and 20 months). I have been a WDW nut all of my life. There's no hiding it.

Yes!!! When we were at WDW in July and watching Wishes I was catching glimpses of the joy in my DW & DK's faces while at the same time trying to discreetly wipe away tears!!!

Darn show gets me EVERY time!!! GAAWWWRSSHHHH!!!!!

This is a really old thread, but I wondered if these decals are still sold at WDW? I've seen a couple of cars this week with them in the back window and would like to add them to my car. I know the Laughing Place has them, but I was hoping to find them without having to pay postage.

Yes they still make them. I think they price for about $3.50 at the World. Maybe if you know someone who's going they can pick it up for you.

I am also one these guys. I love just about everything Disney- parks, movies, music, etc. I also hide my passion to those outside of the family, with the exception of my Stitch antenna topper and the multiple pictures of the family at WDW on my desk at work. I too have similar skills and interests- home improvement, automotive, sports, beer drinking. My iPod isn't crammed, not for lack of trying, but because I have a 160 GB Classic that will take awhile to fill up. However, it does contain many, many Disney tracks (same with my work computer- shhhhhh!), a 40 second clip of the end of Wishes with my son and I watching the show, the "Hot Dog Dance" song played at the end of Mickey Mouse clubhouse, Mickey Mouse cartoons, and the home movie of our last trip to WDW. I tend to be a very sentimental person and don't have difficulty "getting something in my eye" whenever I am exposed to something Disney (music, movies, Lou's podcast, stories about other's magical experiences, just thinking about the smiles on my children's faces when they see Mickey...(sniffle...sniffle....)....excuse me for a moment..........Ok, I'm back now.

We're heading down Dec. 1-7 this year and I've been planning the trip since January. I've already got some rough ideas of how I'm going to compile and edit this trip's vacation movie. I've already written a pre-trip blog of everything we're going to do.

I've come to the conclusion that I have an affliction. It's called the "Peter Pan Syndrome". I don't ever want to grow up. I just want to enjoy everything about Disney that makes me feel like I'm 8 again. As long as Disney keeps entertaining me, I'll be 8 until I die.

Thank you Walt
