Friday and the Random Ten (Smoke on the Water Edition)

Time for things to get back to normal around here, but I can't believe it is already the middle of September. You know what that mean at Disney right? Yep, Halloween parties! Ugh. The first one was on the 15th. Like three days ago the 15th. Of September. Disney has to milk that cash cow as much as they can. Not a holiday I care much for in the first place. Oh well, let's see if the Random 10 is down with it.

Friday and the Random 10 (Soundtrack Edition)


Last week things got back to (semi) normal around here. It was a regular Top 10 list , but it did give us the first inhabitants of Exile Island in quite awhile. So Yes and Apollo 440 are not eligible to show up in this week's countdown. Will the Tarkus finally make an appearance in 2015? Inquiring minds wants to know, so on with the show!

Friday and the Random 10 (Rockin' Edition)

Right now we find ourselves poised on the precipice of the holiday season (I don't count Halloween). By this time next week, we will have passed out into our Tryptofan comas after experiencing severe meat sweats. Others will head into the madness that is Black Friday. Me? Oh I work for Disney so I will be working. A lot. Like 80+ hours in the next week. Makes for a decent paycheck but the only family I will be seeing is my coworkers. #CastMemberLife

Friday and the Random 10 (Graduation Day Edition)

So it's been a week now and basically everyone has gotten over the 24 hours of madness thing at work. We all survived somehow, even if there was a bit of confusion at times. It was basically successful so that just means we will end up doing it again at some point in the future. Yay?

Skip forward a week and school is winding down all over. My oldest graduated this morning actually (who the Hell has a graduation ceremony at 9 am? On a Friday? So Wrong!) Anyway, I digress. After all that craziness had subsided I actually have time to sit and churn out a random 10. Usual rules and whatnot up there ↑ at the top.

Here we go!

Friday and the Random 10 (24 Hours of Disney Edition)


Well today is the day a lot of us have been dreading. Ever since Disney did that thing a few years back on leap year where we stayed open for a full 24 hours they find reasons to do it again. And this time they found ways to make it better worse. This time the trains will be running all night as well. That's right, all of the 1920-ish steam trains will be running for basically an entire day. Uh huh. We'll see how that goes...


And also, this time cast members are blocked out from attending. You know all those wonderful "perks" we are supposed to have? Bet you didn't know that are main gate passes are invalid basically all summer. You know when friends and family actually visit Florida and want us to get them in the parks. Wanna see the castle? Nope. How about a tree in a park nobody wants to go to? It's a glorious life.

Anyway, So in honor of this day the Top 10 is going to be the Top 24. Usual rules are up there ↑ at the top, but the bannings do not matter this time around.

Here's a song for every hour we are open today!

Friday and the Random 10

Another week gone by, another week closer to those dreaded holidays. Ugh. The only shining light in the distance is the fact that we are only about 8 days away from Doctor Who returning. Now that is something to get excited about. You know what else is exciting? Randomness! Well, except for last week. That was kind of a dud. No one got banned which is unfortunate because it was basically 70% suck.

Anyway, thinking positive this time around. Making a dream board, listening to The Secret, changing my fate a la Brave, etc. This week can't be worse right? As usual, the rules and whatnot are over there → to the right.

Friday Night and the Random 10

You know, I've really got stop doing these so late at night. Well, at least they're getting done. The way it works is this: set your Ipod or mp3 player or media player on random and list the first 10 songs that pop up, no matter how embarrassing...

Another week, another 10!

1) Extreme/Little Girls - this is from their 1st cd before they hit it (kinda) big

2) Dennis DeYoung/This I Pray - from his The Hunchback of Notre Dame musical that he wrote...it's ok I guess

3) Deep Purple/Smoke on the Water - wow, how can you get more classic than this?...the holy trinity of rock!

4) Styx/Lonely Child - hey DDY shows up again (you know, before they kicked him out)...classic album cover


5) YES/Roundabout (single edit) - this was a bonus track on the remastered Fragile cd....and it's kind of a bad edit anyway...just doesnt flow for me

6) Alabama/When We Make Love - yeah, weak....

7) The Human League/Heart Like a Wheel - the 80's called and they want this song back, and as far as I'm concerned they can have it

8) Alabama/If You're Gonna Play in Texas (You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band) - you know, I actually deleted alot of the Alabama that I had just a few days ago so it's kinda weird that they've shown up twice so far....karma? Payback?

9) The Beatles/Please Please Me - see, I do have good taste!

10) The Beatles/Eleanor Rigby - awesome song, but i'm feeling my random 10 isn't very random tonite

And the Spinal Tap salute this week is Rush/New World Man. I really hope someone is getting that reference... Anyway, there it is, I'll let DP play us out!
