Travel Tips: Back from Mousefest!
So, I make it back late lasy night from a few days at Mousefest. Was a great time with lots of great folk that get all excited about some weird stuff. It brought to mind the great Salmon Run party of 1992 without the sewage back-up issues. Now one thing I learnt early was Disney Top 10 lists.
You see, I stayed at the All-Star resort named “Sports”. This hotel has star-fish all over as décor – thus the “star”- and oversized sporting equipment. I was gonna offer advice on getting smaller sized equipment cause nobody could figure out how use it. But then I saw Eric Hollister (from GeoMouse) slam dunking on the basketball hoops. (I quickly ran away in case he was going to go blow one of them big whistles.)
Anyway, every night I returned to my room and turned on the television. Some girl named Sally kept counting down the best stuffs to see while at Disney World. There was no volume on that channel for some reason so I had to watch over to the Spanish Language version. She’d countdown what’s best to see all over Disney World. Unfortunately I always fell asleep – BLUHBLBBLUHHBLBLBLUH- by the time she got to “cinco”.
Since I learn only from the best here are my:
Top 10 Things I learnt while at Mousefest.
10. Mousefest people love to win. If you was giving away a used sardine can, they’ll pile on like a school of King Mackeral.
9. “Mongello” is a word that can be a greeting, a shirt slogan or an expletive. (Note: Ironically, I met a guy who also uses it as his last name as in “Lou Mongello”.)
8. The Caribbean Boat Trip Pirates have no idea how to create a true “Munter Italian Friction Hitch” Knot. Their “Grinner Fishing” and “Prusik Self-locking loop” knots where suspect as well.
7. The Disney people are willing to stop the Pirates ride for over 20 minutes if you jump out of your ride vehicle and swim over to fix their faulty knots.
6. When some kids go on rollie coasters, they hope to achieve feelings of “spew”, “ralph”, “yak” and most commonly “blow chunks”.
5. Whan the ladies who clean up the hotel rooms get angry, they speak in Spanish.
4. “Señor, usted no puede mantener un pez vivo en la bañera” in the Spanish language means something like “You can’t keep a live sturgeon in the bathtub.”
3. If you stand still long enough in a shop, you’ll eventually be stuck holding a ladies purse. (Note: That Lou Mongello guy must have that happen a lot cause he gave in and got a purse of his own. But, I didn’t say nothing since he’s already got that name thing to contend with.)
2. The Warner family is out of control. Their kids were all over the place. I felt like telling their Pop he needs a new hobby and must stop procreating… I mean really… It’s like they… It’s like…
It’s like…

Hi Doc, It was great meeting you and hanging out at Mousefest. I have picked up an irrational fear (paranoia perhaps) of being stalked by giant chipmunks. Any idea where that comes from? Lee
Giant Chipmunks, huh? I have just the Elixir… Its from Paris! In France! Now are you sure you weren’t leading said Chipmunk on?
Seriously, that was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while. Good times! Thanks for sharing.
g
Let me just say…
MONGELLO!!!
Glenn, it was great to see you this past week, as it was incredible being able to spend some time with friends like you.
Here’s your free WDWRadio.com Sardine Can
First of all, where in the heck is number 1 at???? Second of all, are there any redheads around this Passamawhatie place??
Hey Lee, watchout for those chipmonks! They like to nibble.
What? He gets something free and I don’t?
Hmmm…I am hoping for a chipmunk blog post very soon!
biblioadonis aka George, Not everyone can score a used WDW Radio Sardine can or an anti-Chipmunk Elixir, but what I can do is offer you a reduced rate on a shoe-horn once used by Kevin Corcoran…
Yes that Kevin Corcoran –
Passamaquoddy’s “man of the century… And this century too.”
(That’s like the year of a million dreams!)
Lorien,
I think we have redheads but its hard to tell. Everyone always wearing their rain gear. Remember we didn’t know you was redhead until the wind storm during the re-shingling of the KWODDY shack.
I speak on behalf of everyone else in town when I see you are more than enough redhead for us all. Anytime the drink starts flowing heavy down at Old Salts, all you hear is:
“We wants the redhead… We wants the redhead!”
Lou,
I will cherish this Used Sardine can, as you know I’m a big collector with over 2,700… Of course, all the other ones are all the same brand. So, if you look at it like that, this is only the second…
It’s a pleasure having you in Passamaquoddy…
Everyone ALWAYS wants the redhead!!
“Everyone ALWAYS wants the redhead!!” – Lorien
Actually, I have started leaning towards blondes in “Mongello” shirts
What about redheads in MONGELLO shirts????
What about Mongellos in Mongellow shirts?
What about Mongellos in Mongello shirts?
