On this day: August 31 1938: Walt and Roy O. Disney make a $10,000 deposit on 51 acres in Burbank, CA, for a new studio.
I'm reading through CMBaloo's old posts. You're an amazing sentimentalist! Just a true to heart gem! I am so very sorry your attempt to give to the MWers didn't work out with the C33 invite. By the time I read your comment, the thing had already gotten out of hand. I apologize for stepping on your toes on that one. I very much need to make it up to you somehow. You are the source of so much inspiration, imagination, and Disney Magic that I'd be honored to meet you some time! Oops. Off topic. Squirrel! I was going to say that the $10K was more like $160,000 today. It's not chump change, but it came straight from the amazing success of Snow White, and what a beginning! - FairyGodfather58.7 #3601 9-4-12 6:37PMLike(4) Reply
Too bad their investment didn't pay off. I feel bad they never made their $10k back lol - pridegirl377.3 #362 8-31-12 9:36AMLike(1) Reply

On Androids, you don't get the popup confirmation, it just take you to the lounge. I've found that sometimes if I have bad service (i.e. in the park) I will be stuck on the uploading screen so long, that my phone will go into sleep mode. Everytime it does this, I get the grey on a picture, so tip to Android users: just tap the screen while it's loading to make sure phone doesn't go to sleep. - Sarafina398.8 #336 4-18-12 2:13PMLike(8) Reply
Great tip! Even if you don't get the Success message yet, the idea is the same, try to stay on that page till you see that it uploads. If it seems like bad service, it might be best to wait a bit. Even I do that. - Sweet_Irish_Cream 2590.9 #20 4-18-12 3:53PM
Disneyland Opening Day. Of course it was in 1955, and some of us might be too young to have attended that date. I think that it's a special moment in history and I love to hear the old tales (for my 20's age). My Boss, 83 yrs old, was one More...
