At the time, First Aid connected through to the Fantasyland Theatre—which was handy when there were employee blood drives as we could chill out in the theater (no movies, though) and enjoy our juice and cookies after donating! The “attraction” (obviously) was closed to the public during those events.

Martinez, boy, that’s a good question! It would seem like nothing would be more useless than a pay phone, but you still see them on the odd street corner. Maybe there are still a few around Disneyland.Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-90411442074761456472015-06-25T06:58:03.106-07:002015-06-25T06:58:03.106-07:00Skully had a 'thing' for both Charlie the ...Skully had a 'thing' for both Charlie the Tuna and the Mermaid. He was one amorous dude and in a constant state of drooling. And yes, his bromance with Monstro was solid as a rock. Monstro wasn't going anywhere. Eventually Mermaid dumped Skully and left town in 1969. Unfortunately Skully met his end in 1982 when he became the victim of a homicidal Imagineer.<br /><br />I love that second image. Nice unusual angle of the Skyway. Do they still have pay telephones at Disneyland?K.
