You know I'm going to be there.

I have never like Disney. Too many corrupted stories. Still, I will be with the workers in prayer on the 14th ...hmmm, Bastille Day. So, what happened with B033 today??
B033? Just talk is all. We'll let you know when it comes up for a vote.
I signed their petition too --I'll be there Elizabeth.
PEople who work for the Mouse generally don't have much good to say about it....
