  1. What's the big deal with Disney trying to hide this stuff anyway? They're not even showing any trailers yet, why all the hush-hush? Some people don't care about being surprised. Which is why these pix that Disney is trying to hide, as well as so many other things, is all over the net.

    I think some of it has to do with marketing and some of it has to do with politics of the movie business. Whether Disney wants to release pictures or clips is none of our business. There are teasers on Utube now. But I think Disney really wants everyone to be surprised. I think more people would like the surprises, than those who don't. I also think it is disrespectful of the people who have worked so hard on this series of movies for others to try and spoil the fun for everyone by posting pictures and clips and other things that are not sanctioned by the Disney Corp. At least we at the pub can do our part to help Disney by respecting their wishes and not spoiling the fun for others. Just my two pence.

  2. Glad to hear there will be two reenactor fests. I was worried that Iwouldn't get to go to many more. Well, not till I get my degree and a decent job! But, if I could go out East I think I would choose Williamsburg....I think I will click on the link and vote!

  3. Well, I have decided on 1890's for the day I will be down there. A nice light blue wool walking suit. I just have to figure out what to do with my hair. I'll have to see how the money goes to know if I can stay overnight.

    And as it has been said, you don't have to be exactly historically correct there. Just an attempt is good. I went in street clothes last year.

  4. Yep, being able to be any century is a great thing about this fest. I was there last year and got some nice fabric for the cowboy thing I do. It was great seeing all the diversity of reenactors. This year I plan on staying longer though. I am trying to talk some other Victorians to come down too. It should be a grand party this year! And I will definitly look you up when I get there.

  5. Just had to share this. I was driving to Illinois this morning and just happened to come up behind a big black truck with Wisconsin plates that read PIRATE. How cool is that??? Another pirate on the same road as me at the same time. Any body else have a personalized license plate?

  6. I have been told and I have read that history is interpereted by the writer of said history. And those who write history are prone to scewing the history in the direction of thier beliefs and social status. It depends on which side you are on and who is doing the writing that determines what is true or which truth is believed. History will always be a debate on any subject, even the bibles truth. And since we do not have any book other than the bible on the creation debate, we can only speculate what is truth and what is not.

    It will be an interesting thing to discuss at any rate. Just my two pence.

  7. I am a professional seamstress/costumer and a part time student.

    I have also been an office manager

    warehouse worker

    factory worker

    farm hand

    stockroom worker

    Hoping when I get my associates degree in surgical technology I will have a much better second half of my life. Finacially anyway.

  8. You have posted some very profound thoughts here hitman. I too have seen many sights and experienced many things that have brought the same thoughts to my mind. The world is full of contrasts and contradictions that we sometimes do not understand.

    Your job is one of hardships and long lonely hours on the road. Yours is a job underappreciated by most people, they do not understand your sacrifices in the sometimes dangerous path you drive down. And when thoughts are at times the only company one has on the road, it can be a long and lonely road too, far from family and friends.

    Thank you for your sacrifices and your courage. I have met many truckers in my life, traveling with my father, and I have grown to respect most of the men I have met who do the work you do.

    Just my two pence
