Jude 2

Several years ago while in my teens, we were at Walt Disney World. Michael Jackson was also there filming Captain EO for EPCOT (see picture below).

While waiting to ride the Peter Pan's Flight, MJ and his bodyguards were allowed "VIP" status to board ahead of the line. He walked within just a few feet of me, so I quickly snapped a picture. The next day we found a "one hour" studio and had them developed. I noticed that several had been snapping pictures of MJ around the Disney parks as the film studio had several random snaps on the wall, etc.... The picture actually turned out relatively good for a cheap 110 camera.

The funny part comes after we returned home. I sent the negative off to have multiples made of Michael Jackson. When they returned, we didn't have Michael... we had ten prints from Youth Camp of Bishop Wayne Thorn (Paul Thorn's dad). I was disappointed, but it was truly hilarious.

I was speaking with a guy from church the other night about this subject. He used to work at Disney and he told me about MJ being there and filming this. He said it was 1986 or so. He spoke with MJ and got his autograph. MJ had a child with him and needed to use the restroom but MJ didn't want him to use the public facilities so Mark took the boy to the employee restroom.

Strange coincidence or ordered steps?

How long before Captain Eo gets released on DVD in 3-D, or in theaters remastered in 3-D.

We went to see Ice Age 3 Friday night. The new 3-D stuff (and I know Gerald knows this already because he saw Up, others may know it, too) is really neato. The number of 3-D movies coming out this year must be the most since the 1950's.

What was the point of this post if there was no posting of the snapshot?

Which one? Michael or Bishop Thorn?

Seriously, I gave the only snapshot to my cousin, Dana, in 1986 (spot on FQ) and locating the negative would probably require a small miracle.

I do intend to look for it though.

We've been having a lot of those lately, haven't we? I find these things interesting. Personally, I have been involved in a handful of these unique coincidences (or are they?) in the past few weeks.
