Sometimes I can place the face but don’t know the name. In this case, I really didn’t remember the face, but I let his name and list of credits speak for themselves. He had been in 18 episodes of Cagney & Lacey as the recurring character Detective Jonah Newman. He’d been Billy the Kid in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. He’d even had a small role as one of the deputies in Red Rock West. But it was on the strength of his Disney connection that I opted to pick up a signed photo of him.

It came pretty early in the day of Wednesday, April 18, 2012. We had escaped the hotel vomit-free, but after boarding the bus from the All Star Movie Resort to Disney’s Animal Kingdom at around 10am, she let loose. I had just finished a plastic bowl of fruit, so I handed that off to help capture some of the spew. The good news in all of this was that this signaled the end of Megan’s illness. The bad news was that she had just vomited on a bus. Read the rest of this entry »
