That's pretty cool. I lived in Orlando from 2006-2010, so I had a lot of friends who worked (and still work in some cases) for Disney.

What did you do there?
I was one of the cultural exchange peeps at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Stereotyping it up for the tourists while dressed in khaki. At least 60% were convinced I was an actor because a white person "couldn't possibly be from Africa".
That's awesome. I had a really hot fling with a cultural exchange person from Norway who worked at Epcot back in 2011. Ahh, memories. I hope you enjoyed the living fuck out of your time in Orlando.
Ha, the Norwegian girls scored a difficulty of "1" on the "international checklist" (which I never had a part in, obviously). They were very... enthusiastic.

The second time I went on holiday to Orlando, a very nice old lady said almost exactly that to me at the airport. Very friendly place.

God bless them. :-)

I had a thing for a while with a girl who played Cinderella too. I've ruined quite a few of my friends' childhood memories with those stories.

(Wow. I sound like a terrible person...)

When I first moved there I was so cynical and beyond certain that I would hate it and be gone again in a month. I ended up loving it in a way I don't know I could ever really explain. It gave me a new lease on life when I was prepared to give up on everything. If I ever have to pick a city to go back to and live out the rest of my life in, Orlando would have a good chance of being that city.

Do you think the LTRP guy, drinking in drag when the kingdom comes, has a blistered thumb from thumbing his way back to Heaven?

I'm not sure about that. But I'm pretty certain he's finding it hard to believe he's in Heaven.

ABNorman isn't classy. harmless likes Bryan Adams. I'm apparently kind of a whore. The new album may or may not suck.

From past experience, they seem to always play an upbeat/rocker track that isn't a single. This could rule out MYM and Sirens. Can those that have hear the leaks suggest which ones are upbeat/rocker tracks?

they only did that once, with grievance. since then they've played i am mine, save you, life wasted, got some, just breathe on late night talk shows while promoting the respective records. all singles.
