I love this mysterious and moody picture of two Imagineers working on Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean in 1965. And who knew Bob Dobbs worked at WED?

Disneyland _must_ have Slack.
Bob Dobson? The almighty Bob?
J.R. “Bob” Dobbs
Who knew that he was at WED back in the day?
“How do you top it?”
“Well we have you trapped down in this flaming city…”
“How do you top it?”
“Well, we have random people from the audience text message jokes that their third grader heard, that’s after they’ve stood in line and waved their hands in the air hoping to make something on a screen move. Then we’ll show them a movie and we’ll spray water in their face, or maybe blow air that kinda smells like chilli dogs. Or better yet, we’ll buy a bunch of carnival rides and dress then all with signs that say “Disney” and maybe a picture or two…you know, to please the fans.”
Oh for the days when “story” meant “story” and not “some obscure plot we tossed together to explain all the decorations we put up”.
Someone needs a hug.
