2719 Hyperion

Hey, I found a great little article (one of many!) about Walt in KC over on 2719 Hyperion--we need to send them some updated pics of the building, so they can see that it is being cared for.

Speaking of caring for the building, I am going to nag you again and tell you this Saturday, a mere 2 days from now, we will be having our Dinner with Goofy Event, with special guest Bill Farmer (the voice of Goofy). All proceeds from this event will benefit the Laugh-O-Grams building, and the funds are desperately needed for upkeep, and all the new work that we need to do. If you haven't gotten tickets, there is still time!!

Quick! What are your top three favorite Disney related blogs?

Yesterland--Sometimes I lose whole days on here just looking at pictures

In other news..how glamorous is Walt in this picture? He kind of looks like William Powell (also from KC, and a personal favorite of mine)

Interesting Trivia

Here is some interesting trivia, as brought to our attention from TYWD president Dan Viets!

Today, April 30, is the ancient Pagan holiday which has become known as Walpurgis
night, portrayed in the climactic next-to-last segment of Fantasia, the Chernobog
rising from the mountain and witches flying through the air part. It is the Spring
counterpart of Halloween, the eve of May Day, just as Halloween is the eve of All
Saints Day. So celebrate!

Don't forget! After tomorrow the tickets for our evening with Bill Farmer, voice of Goofy will go up to $120. If you want to get the Deal-of-the-century $95 ticket, you better buy one right now!
