Which Reminds Me

Yes, I do vaguely remember that someone was making the point that Disney sounds sort of like the city of 'Dis' which is mentioned in Dante's book, the 'Inferno,' as being located partway down the road to, well, you know where. Yes, come to think of it, it does seem an odd coincidence, even though we already know that Disney was actually just the surname of the founder of the amusement parks. Well, yes, it is true that there was a dark side to Walt as his famous film, 'The Sorceror's Apprentice,' provides ample evidence, you were saying. The broomstick just keeps coming back with more and more buckets of water until finally Mickey Mouse is drowning in the ocean. Yes, well, anyway, we really ought to remember that amusement parks are not a source of religious instruction. No one should expect to find church in there. Only entertainment. But we already knew that. So you were saying? Was I supposed to do something about that?
