She confused me about the singing "tombstones" thing...hasn't it, since day one, always been the whole graveyard singing the song, though? o_O

Yeah, at her age I can understand confusing an exact item, heck I do it in my mid 20s! I am just heckling you though.

I just assume she meant the busts, since it would make sense to have a fewer number. The whole set seems kind of odd to me and always did.

You tell 'em, Alice. "I don't think Marc would have liked it." No BS from Alice. I love it.

I could not believe when she said it but I think a lot of people agree that if the original creators still had a hand in it, things would be more alive and colorful.

I do not think that "nothing would have changed" thought, but its going in directions I just don't know how to feel about the new bride. The beating heart on a smurf was what made me feel at home! ;)

She seems bitter. She was SO funny at the Pirates of the Caribbean event in 2000.

Alice is kinda... awkward, I think. I don't mean that to criticize her; she just seemed a bit terse.
