My "work" resort

  1. Who's it going to be? Not me.

    Well, I've officially given up on trying to enter the Dream CMO contest. I know that I said in a prior post that I was going to use it as a way to try to recapture the magical feeling of Disney, but real life kind of got in the way.

    It's not that I didn't come up with a great idea for the video. (I had a good script written, with an idea for the accompanying visuals.) It's not that I didn't want to do the job. I still think that it would be cool to work for Disney, and this was ...
  2. If the bloom is off the rose, can it bud anew?

    I see that Disney and CareerBuilder have launched another dream job contest, this time to find a Chief Magic Official for the parks.

  4. Goodbye, Dolly (-maker)

    When I set this blog up, I figured I'd write my first entry as soon as some story struck my fancy. I didn't expect it to be an obituary, but you can't control the news. We lost another Disney legend this week, when Joyce Carlson passed away Wednesday at the age of 84.
