That's amazing! I hope I don't sound pushy but can you buy this book from average retail stores? Or is it a Special Edition that needs to be ordered from a certain merchandise company?
Sorry, I had to ask. I collect many forms of Disney books and this sounds like a perfect addition to my collection.

I got it from Barnes and Noble, or my mom did. I got the first one of the series (Story, it has storyboards from the same Disney animated films), from Amazon.

barkydog - Unfortunately, no. John Lasseter has an introduction at the beginning and there's a list of acknowledgments at the end, and that's all the writing there is, but the pictures are amazing. silver - I went over with a bunch families I know well and ate dinner with them and played a couple of games (banana peel and left, right, center) and then went over to my friends house who had a couple of other friends over. We watched an episode of NCIS, watched the ball drop, watched four more episodes of NCIS, and lamented about how we are all single. For some reason we just didn't get into the celebrating this year, but it was fun. This is the book I got for Christmas and the first one in the series, which I just ordered www.amazon.com/Walt-Disney-Animation-Studios-Archive/dp/1423107233/ref=pd_sim_b_1www.amazon.com/Animation-Walt-Disney-Studios-Archive/dp/1423117166/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262826390&sr=8-1

Are you happy or unhappy being single? (If that's not too personal to answer)

I'm happy about being single for the most part. It was harder to be single in high school than being a freshmen in college, because a lot of freshmen came to college single and everyone is still in the midst of forming relationships. So being single is very common among friends. Although people date at college (obviously) there's so many relationships that don't happen within the college it's self that it hasn't become a huge deal, or doesn't seem to be. In high school everyone had a boyfriend or girlfriend and you'd run into people making out in the hallway. Wasn't fun. Plus, my really good friends would have boyfriends all the time, so there were points where I just felt really lonely, but overall I've been content with it and still am. At the same time, a boyfriend would be nice, but I'm content with how I am.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

I agree. I'm very much like you.
In your opinion what do you think is worse? To be vain & superficial and proud of it? Or to be those things, but to be in denial about it?

wearedoomed - full psychic power would be pretty cool. By full I mean telepathy as well as telekinesis. Also where telekinesis is strong enough to lift yourself into the air and fly. So it's a three in one power Silver - I think the first one. I don't understand how anyone can really be proud of it. No offense to anyone, but that marks you down on my list as a person. If you're in denial about it, it probably means you're ashamed of it and don't want to deal with. I feel like you can over come the denial a lot more than changing you're entire value system.

So the reason that I haven't answered it yet is I don't know. I realize, although I read a lot, about 90% of it is rereading. Some of my favorites include Ron and Hermoine (Harry Potter), Eowyn and Faramir (Lord of the Rings) , Lancelot and Guinevere, Kaye and Roiben (Tithe), Aislinn and Seth (Wicked Lovely), Ella and Char (Ella Enchanted), John and Meg (Little Women), Henry and Blue (Faerie Wars), Alanna and Jonathan (Song of the Lioness), Kait and Bram (Scribbler of Dreams), Lucien and Arianna (City of Masks), Meg and Calvin (Wrinkle in Time), and Anne and Gilbert (Anne of the Green Gables) are just to name a few Surprisingly enough I tend to feel more for particular couples in movies than in novels.
