Today is National
Cheeseburger Day. The cheeseburger might be the perfect food. To quote Jimmy
Buffett, “I like mine with lettuce and tomatoes, Heinz 57 and French fried
potatoes, Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer, now good God almighty which
way do I steer?” The basic ingredients, beef, cheese and bread can be augmented
by a host of ingredients to suit the taste and at Walt Disney World there are
two places in The Magic Kingdom that give you an unequalled opportunity to
outfit you burger the way you like it. Pecos Bill’s Tall Tale Tavern and Cosmic
Ray’s offer fixing bars that allow you to turn a 1/3-pound burger into a meal
for the entire family. I’m not kidding. All you want with no limit. If you’ve
not experienced this, you won’t understand. It is awesome and Pecos Bill’s also
offers a fix it the way you like taco salad. I’m not even hungry and this
sounds good.
Fred Willard was born
on this day in 1939 in Shaker Heights, Ohio. Fred Willard is a very funny guy. Fernwood Tonight, This is Spinal Tap,
Everybody Loves Raymond feature his everyman just a tad twisted persona.
For Disney, his roles include: Melvin in Chicken
Little, Shelby Forthright in Wall-E, Jack
Hench on Kim Possible and a couple of
turns on Wizards of Waverly Place.
With limited time magic in the air at Walt Disney World, it’s possible that you
might see Chicken Little, so look for him and remember Fred.
On this day in 1793, President George Washington
laid the cornerstone of the Capitol building. George has some personal effects
prominently displayed in foyer of The Hall of Presidents. Visit and watch the
show. It chokes me up every time.
Anyone who knows me very well knows that I love
The Ramones. The brudders stripped rock down to the essentials and cranked out
some of the greatest songs that never hit the charts. Unfortunately, The Ramones
greatest commercial successes came after the band was gone and three of the
original four members have passed on.
Dee Dee Ramone (Douglas Colvin) was born on this
day in 1951. Dee Dee was the main songwriter and probably the free spirit of
the band. Gabba, gabba, Hey Dee Dee. You are missed. Look for punk inspired
clothing and souvenirs at WDW and remember: The Ramones helped make that
happen.
Remember, your best excuse is always: waiting
for your dreams to come true.
