Big Thumbs up to Dave's Rumor Round-up

I just had a chance to read "Dave's Rumor Round-up" in the latest edition of
Passporter News and really enjoyed it.

The "Rumor Status:" comments at the end of each section
were really great and made me laugh

Way to go Dave

Can someone send me the article or a link to it? I just can't get PassPorter Newsletters anymore (I think my computer security settings are eating them up somewhere, and the link from the home page isn't to the most recent one.

The MiceAge website has also done an extensive rumor update just a few days ago. Many other rumors were listed that did not make the Passporter list....

Very interesting stuff - always love it when you put in your two cents, Dave.

I've forwarded a link to the newsletter so that you can read it, Karen.

Thanks for the MiceAge link as well - I spend all my surfing time here - so I miss the bigger picture!

It just doesn't make sense.

Disney is magical and wonderful, but they're still a BIG CORPORATION and will not blink at raising prices exactly to the point where people are willing to pay. Demand that things be kept reasonable and they will do it! Especially with the huge profits I have heard about recently.
