I dig it.
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.

I would like to have the Coaster Dude for my rec room!
Why doesnt SFGAM sell some of there not needed surplus items on e-bay??
Disney sells alot of there surplus via other firms and makes a decent buck on it.

Actually anyone who has the Sunday Chicago Tribune can read the article with really nice pictures. Its in the Chicago Tribune Magazine and its entitled Ghosts of Gurnee, some page around 20 or so.
