December 5 marks what would have been the 114th birthday of Walt Disney. He passed almost half a century ago and relatively young, yet his legacy lives on stronger than ever.  For the millions of people entertained and inspired by this man and by the close to a century span of The Walt Disney Company, thank you! 

Saw a recent documentary about Walt Disney recently, and about the dedication he put into his projects. Apparently he was out painting and helping in the hours before Disneyland opened, trying to help out getting it open in time.

Well, when you consider some of the stories that came out of that era - such as the bitumen on main street being so freshly laid that women's high heels sank into it - it was a close run thing to have everything ready - and even then it wasn't!
