El Pirata Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Well vote away, I think you can guess what my vote is already. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Lady Bassett Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Uh.... which one is which? Forgive my absolute and complete ignorance. I did live in Florida, but never went to the place. So I do not know. Nor do I really care. Although curious but too disinterested to figure it out on my own. This mountain is mine!
Raven Cole Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 DisneyLAND is in Annaheim, CA DisneyWORLD is in Buena Vista, FL (I believe those are the cities the two are located in, but I may be mistaken) Captain of The Perdition "Storm" chaser
El Pirata Posted December 17, 2003 Author Posted December 17, 2003 Guess I am the minority here. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
RyannMacGregor Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 I've only been to one...hmmm...it's be a biased vote if I did....guess this just means only one thing........ROAD TRIP! Captain of The Morrighan.
redhand Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 If yer lookin to go on the POTC ride....Disneyland is the better version, plus it's located in New Orleans square as opposed to Liberty square in Orlando. Cheers Redhand
Matty Bottles Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 I guess I'm a disney WORLD type, never having been to disney LAND....Even tho' The Pirates of the Carribean was COSED FOR REMODELING 2 of the 3 times I went to that f*****g place! Sorry about the language. I just miss it sometimes, people. I miss it. When I was eight, my life was so clear. I would be a pirate. But you get older, and other things catch your interest, and you get a job at an ice cream store called the Yum Yum Tree, and how can you become a pirate after that? An you go to a good university and get a degree in English and realize that you don't like kids but you'll never make money with the dang thing other than the pennies you'll make teaching and you find your self grinding away at menial jobs until your total lack of professional experience is such an albatross around your neck you find yourself frozen in place like the ancient mariner, but when you were a kid, you knew that you could be a pirate.... *sniffle* I need some ice cream.

There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning." - Capt. Joshua Slocum
Lady Bassett Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Relax, Jack. Everything's going to be OK. This mountain is mine!
Matty Bottles Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Thank you.

Matty Bottles Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Hey, Look! I'm a captain! yaaaay! :) "The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone.

RyannMacGregor Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Hmmmm..rum raisin or Cherry Garcia? Captain of The Morrighan.
Matty Bottles Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Well, the pirate part of me says rum raisin, of course. But the former ice cream shop clerk part of me thinks rum raisin is sort of like butter pecan: a perfectly good flavor, but one overwhelming preffered by old people. So Cherry ice cream would be delicious. "The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone.

RyannMacGregor Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 No worries mate! *hands Bloody Jack a pint of cherry garcia and a spoon* I know its not the same..but let me put the POTC DVD in so you can sit close to the screen and think you are actually on the ride. Captain of The Morrighan.
Lady Bassett Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 I knew an Ice Cream Shop clerk once. He was an irritating little f~@k. He had some really nasty habits, too. His partner in crime was the coolest guy to walk the planet, tho. But ice cream is good. This mountain is mine!
redhand Posted December 17, 2003 Posted December 17, 2003 Ice cream? what kinda piratical talk is that mates! actually, for those of you interested in taking trips to either "majic kingdom" if you run a search for "teh laughing place" or try www.thelaughingplace.com they have a listing of ride closures at both parks to help people plan their vacations and unwanted ugly suprises! Cheers Redhand
Lady Bassett Posted December 18, 2003 Posted December 18, 2003 Speakin' of Disneyland, did anybody bother to bail Captain Vale out of Jail??? This mountain is mine!
Captain Tito Posted December 18, 2003 Posted December 18, 2003 I've actually been to both and rode both POTC rides. I like the way the one in Cali builds ya up to the invasion. Ya starts off in that calm bayou with the guy strummin on the banjo. Then the drama builds as ya progress through the tunnels. The Florida one is cool, don't get me wrong. But it comes at ya so fast. It just feels different than the California one. I also like the Pyrate shop (Pieces of Eight) in California better than the one in Florida. <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>
Capt Grey Posted December 18, 2003 Posted December 18, 2003 Well I be biased because I lives near the California one. And it be the first park, so there be history there. However, judging by the voting, the majority of ye are closer to the Florida park. I only been there once. After I be married. It were a Mickey Mouse Honeymoon. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Captain Tito Posted December 18, 2003 Posted December 18, 2003 Looks like a close race goin on now. When I voted, Florida wuz way out. Now its even!! <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>
Misery Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 I vote for disneland I wnet there every year around my birthday but POTC was always my favorite ride go fig
The Touring Gentleman Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 Couldn't vote... too split to decide. Went to DisneyWorld a lil' over twenty years ago and have fond memories of Epcot. Now, with the new space thingy, it looks like it would be pretty neat. OTOH, I've got an annual pass to DisneyLand and the Holy Trio of Rides Mad Gracie and I do every trip: POTC, Haunted Mansion and Indiana Jones. We'd do Space Mountain but there's not really much open in the TomorrowLand section of the park right now (a serious bummer... I blame Micheal Eisner (but then, who doesn't?)). I'd lean LAND, but not so much to cast a vote on it. Only by great risks can great results be achieved. -Xerxes
El Pirata Posted December 25, 2003 Author Posted December 25, 2003 Cool beans, Disney LAND is winning like it should be! Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
