On to the next one...

Spring break is quickly coming to a close. The theme parks will hit a small lull before the summer crowds start arriving in the City Beautiful. Can't wait to get back in the parks. Not many new things popping up, but I feel the need to get out there and film.

While on the topic of Disney. The parks. The online community and what not.

Im realistic and I know not many people read this blog. I just wanted to touch on the whole Mongello and his tour fiasco. If you don't know what I am talking about, Lou Mongello, host of the WDW Radio Show and author of numerous Walt Disney World trivia books, started a new venture. He is offering guided tours of the Magic Kingdom, telling stories, pointing out little nuances, for a nominal(yet, pricey) fee.

If you want more info on his tours, please check out www.LouMongello.com

Many people think that it is their duty to try and publicly humiliate Lou and detract people from wanting to use his service. Lou has been under attack on Twitter, mostly from the WDWNT(Walt Disney World News Today), from people using a hash tag "StupidTours", and calling Lou a thief.

Leave Lou alone. The constant attacking just shows me that you are jealous, and wish you came up with the idea. If you dont want to use the service, leave it at that. No need to try and get a campaign going to shut him down, or publicly embarrass him. He's got a new idea, and he has the right to try and play it out. It disgusts me the way some people are so easily brainwashed to help slander a fellow human being for no good reason.

I was going to discuss other things in this post, but I honestly got myself a little worked up, and will have to continue a little later.

Be safe out there kiddies.

Give your momma a kiss

Getting back in the swing...

...of things.

I feel like I am finally getting my "rhythm" back, and it feels great!

Keeping current on the YouTube channel again. Lots of new videos have been posted recently!

I have also been drawing everyday. I have completed filled a sketchbook in less than 45 days. I haven't done that since college.

I've been keeping quiet on the Vinylmation front lately. I have been working on 2 9" figures for the last few months. I've shown one already, the Orlando Magic, but the other has been a secret. It's for my sister. It's almost complete, and I'll be sure to post pics after I give it to her.

As far as collecting them is concerned, I have really "cooled" off. I'm almost afraid to say it, but I think I have TOO MANY Vinyls! The way Disney has them coming out in a "rapid-fire" fashion, it's just almost impossible to keep up. Combine that with their inconsistent pricing and release info, it's become more of a frustration, than a hobby.

That's enough of that for now.

Work has been crazy. It should settle down in a week or two. When it hits the next lull, I hope to film another 4X4 challenge.

You heard that here first.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Kiss your momma.
