to this skillful snapper!

3rdshiftCM gets away from the nightly grind
to soak up the winter sun with his family! He was also kind
enough to take his camera and get some wonderful shots from
around the Parks! If this is just a preview, I can only imagine
what the main course will be like!
More Photos: WDW Vacation 1/10-1/17 (Magic Kingdom)
Sarki7 comes back with a second helping of
high quality shots from around the Magic Kingdom. Amazing detail
and color in every shot!
Long
Overdue October Trip Video
ABOMIBOT took some super shots when he was

You must see the wonderful video and hear the terrific soundtrack

awesome MiceChat community! ~elly
Coraline,
Usagi Yojimbo, and Watchmen at the Cartoon Art Museum
AtomicBear brings us up to date on the current

to Monorail Man. Jack just can't meet his fate
lying in the street in front of a bus. Please say Jack's gonna
be all right!
I
found a comparable restaurant to In-N-Out in Florida!
Thanks to mikeland, I am now in super-crave
mode for a delectable burger and fries, no matter if it is from
Five Guys or In-N-Out, or Jack in the Box. (Come on Jack, we're
all pullin' for 'ya!)

Let's Abolish the Word ' If ' from MiceChat
If there is a hidden meaning to DCAfanatic's
opening of this discussion, it's lost on me. But I like it anyway,
if only for the Bread lyrics posted within.
Del
Taco Haunted Mansion Text
Hmm, Disney on the brain much? Newbie Brer Mole
notices a strong similarity between the font in recent use by
Del Taco and the signage for Disney's Haunted Mansion. I think
this newbie will fit in just fine with the MiceChat crowd.
Snow
Pictures!!
Joshrzmeup shares with us some fresh and frosty photos from
the season's first snow in her area. Check out her icy antenna
topper! Poor Jack just can't get a break this week.
The
Best Laid Plans.....
After my deep sadness over having missed the MiceChat Anniversary
festivities last weekend, a good laugh was much appreciated.
Thank you neighbor tiggerfan, for this hilarious
look at when criminals try to be clever, and for giving me an
excuse to do my tired, old Napoleon Dynamite impression: "Freakin'
idiots!"
