Yes, we can't stand Disneyland. But to be good sports for the kids, we tried to hide our contempt and be good soldiers. We went there two years ago and on the way home our youngest said "Mom, Dad. Thanks for taking us again but I don't care if we ever go back." The wife and I were doing high fives.

What really baffles me is when adults go there without little kids. I was standing in line with the kids one day at the ride where you drive the little cars around a track and I looked up and down the line and it was mostly adults without kids. I thought, "what the hell are these people thinking?" They can drive REAL cars for crying out loud.

And don't get me started about the cheesiness and commercialism. And crappy food.

Finally...something we agree on.

I went to Disneyland one time and it was a miserable time. 3 1/2 to 4 hour waits for one ride...I refuse to wait that long for a ride. Just too many people.

We had a lot more fun at Magic Mountain and Universal Studios.
