Whenever they come on here, she is glued to the TV and ROTFLHFAS. The WifeBeast wonders if there is a cure for her. jt

That would be nice for us. :-) Perhaps Disney is aware of RADP, and blacked it out for our benefit - just missing the mark. jt

(<-- rhetorical question.) I just did a bit of Googling on Pop Warner Week. Seems the AS resorts get hit with noise, but that seems to be the worst of it. The parks see a little more crowd in the evening, but that impact appears insignificant. Impact on the meets would be non-existant, as the kids are at ESPN during the day, which is when the main events seem to happen. jt

And as of now, this is the last year of the Pop Warner/Disney contract. jt

But I think we've already established that... :-) BTW, have you ever gone the route South (US-231) through Dothan to I-10? Is it like all the other roads in the East where you run into a town that slows you down every 500 yards? (I'm looking for an emergency re-route in case I-75 has a major problem. I'd rather not have to drive all the way to New Orleans to pick up I-55...) I assume you take US-331 to Destin...
