Re: So what's new?

Re: "Frozen Ever After" ride-through video
I think it was 2 years for each new Southern Palace show for the majority of the late 80s through the 90s.
Truthfully, I lost interest after the "Time Warner chart toppers" revue in the early 90s....

Re: "Frozen Ever After" ride-through video

Re: Arlington rules, Dallas drools
Thanks, Scott. That's one thing that really bugs me about COA - the steadfast refusal to get some sort of mass transit in here. I'd love it if I could ride the train to work. It'd save 2000 miles a...
