Excellent!

I think we should all post a photo of our office - very insightful! (I'm out of the office today and I don't think my home office counts)

Love how you have Wheezy the penguin on the top shelf ... as he should be... :D

My office is the end of my dining room table at the moment and can not be shown to the world :lol:
Rest assured, there are piles of harddrives/usb sticks/paper, chocolate, a stack of 6 full notebooks to the left, and for some reason my duty free perfume from 6 months ago is still sitting behind it in the original bag... the only thing that's neat are the multi-coloured pens in a little tub so they stay inky.

I'm not allowed to take photos of my work desk but I can describe it like Lisa did.

Monitor, keyboard, telephone, Chairman Mao windup alarm clock, various toys (including Darth Vader, Flik from a Bug's Life, a George W. Bush doll, Austin Powers and Dr Evil plush, and a nunchuking hamster), a baseball, a frisbee and a My Little Pony sticker book (long story...)

Was heading into the studios and saw a little duck family that were leaving. There used to be a reflecting pool they would play in but that was removed awhile ago. But looks like the ducks are used to waddling into the studio to use the pool. It wasn't expected this duck would bring her family back.

Security put buckets and tubs of water behind the fire station where its safe for the Ducks to use but they need to be shown where it is.

Knowing Disney as I do and knowing what the people are like, I wouldn't be surprised if we build a little water pool for them to use somewhere safe.

Fyi the wife does background work for TV shows and today she is working on set for a show called Code Black. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4452630/

Only reason I mention this is its being filmed on one of the Sound Stages at the studio backlot in Burbank. I saw a glimpse of some of the sets on Friday evening when I left the screening of Antman. The sound stage doors where open and they were wheeling in a bunch of medical equipment. I wish I had taken some photos.

Her first job thats being filmed at the Disney Studios and she''s so happy.

That's great Kevin - you couldn't sneak in to watch them film? ;)

I was fortunate enough to get into a Disney sound stage during a tour a couple of years ago and check out the set of Body of Evidence. It is amazing to see how the sets are all linked together, walking from the police room, into the morgue, into a building lobby all within feet of each other - yet on screen they all just look like separate locations. The sound stage manager was fascinating to talk too as she explained how the filming of TV shows worked.

We'll have to look out for Code Black next year - we tend to get the hospital dramas eventually on channel 9 :)

That would be awesome! I'll have to look into that for a future trip. I'll be there next month, but I've only got four days and want to spend that in Anaheim.
