Try being trapped in "It's a Small World" without the music. All of the little figures still waving and doing their thing to the sound of clicking servos. Now that's creepy! Didn't know I could have sued.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Make it stop. That reminds me of the East Germans torturing Horst Buchholz by playing "Itsy Bitasy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" over and over in ONE TWO THREE.

Good thing those scientists solved the earworm problem with anagram puzzles, as noted in this blog. After being stuck in that ride you'd have the song wedged in your head for years.

I do have to admit that in two and a half weeks, fivver and Mrs. fivver will be at the Magic Kingdom and yes, we will take the small world ride. That 'you have to grow up and become a mature adult' thing may be one of the worst ideas ever!

fivver, I disagree - you have to get OLDER, certainly, but "grow(ing) up and become(-ing) a mature adult" is definitely not mandatory!
Oh, and be sure to wave as you drive by en route to "The Happiest Place on Earth" (assuming you're landing @ LAX, that is...)
*settles back into her seat on the Geezer Bus, humming some vaguely familiar tune*

klezmerphan,
Sorry but we're heading to the one in Florida. It's just a few hours from where we live in Atlanta.

So what kind of a suit did he win?
Hope it wasn't a "Sears Sucker"

we got stuck in Pirates of the Caribbean for a half hour ...
♫ 'Yo-Ho, Yo-Ho a Pirates life for me!' - lol still makes me laugh - we all shared stupid pirate jokes & laughed alot - humorless people who sue over that Arrrrrrr Losers!

That's an ear-borer. Would put a cheery little hole right through your head.

If I had to listen to that song for 30 minutes I would sue for a LOT more than $8000.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the Orlando "it's a small" broke down a half dozen times in the two days she was there this week. She chose to not get stuck.
I'm still too afraid or allergic to be around The Giant Rat to go.

"Martinez was eventually treated at a Disneyland first aid station," the lawyer said.
He should have been shot and put out of his misery.

If they shot him in the head "It's a Small World" would probably have leaked out of the hole.

To be honest, any adult who gets on the It's A Small World knows exactly what they're getting into. There's no excuse.

fivver, I'm looking down at a mouse pad (I have a matching t-shirt) with the relevant quote from Jimmy Buffett: "Growing older but not up."
Have fun.

"I'm growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
Let those winds of time blow over my head
I'd rather die while I'm living than live while Im dead"

key quote:
"Geffen said the ruling was had resonance..."
and i assume the editor was had employment.
