Miss you at the Club!

Lee, I'm sorry man, but I really miss ya! Have you thought of coming out of retirement or working just part time? Hmm, part time sounds pretty good!

Greetings to one and all

Been a while since i have posted any information here. Were do I begin. Lets see, oh yes,that poison ivy story. Approx. 4 weeks ago,yours truly came into poison ivy. And when I say it was every where on me,I am not kidding. Everywhere is a understatement. Red itchy,tomato red skin ,with big and small blisters. For about 2 weeks sleeping was not happening,waking up itchy and trying not to scatch,dam near impossible. You cannot imagine the discomfort. However much better now. Still have some healing going on,and sleeping now is great.

Just returned from a cruise on the disney Magic. Can you say WOW and WOW. If you ever get a chance to go on a cruise,go on a disney cruise. Not saying this because i retired from disney,but because they even maded me proud, a former cast member. Talk about disney service,at its best,from meals,room service,shows and shopping,WOW. The disney island was so amazing,enjoyed the kids side,however,went over to the adult side for a full body massage,felt great. Other island stops,St Marteen and St Thomas, nice and the shopping was great.

Hi Lee!

It was nice speaking with you the other night, hope everything is going well!

Looks as though they club has gotten a nice face-lift, so a visit is due to shoot more photos. We'll definitely have to hook up on your next visit down to OC! Maybe a quick trip to Bob's Big Boy in Burbank. We'll take the Rolls! LOL!

Poison Ivy? Hope You're OK!

Hi Lee!
Hey, I heard you had an accident while hiking and fell into poison ivy? That's terrible! Not as bad as a broken leg or an angry bear, but most certainly an itchy inconvenience! Hope you're feeling better and e-mail or call any time. It's always wonderful to hear from you.
Get well soon!

The club just isn't the same!

Hi Lee,
Well, I have to admit, the club just isn't the same without 'Doc' behind the proverbial oak plank. Dispensing drinks, shaken with wit, stirred with wisdom, followed by a shooter of satirical jest. We miss you!
Amongst the formal setting of pomp and structure the humorous fellow with the crooked bow tie was the perfect Yen to the club's Yang! Oh, I'm just joking about the tie, you always looked perfect:)

Here is toast to Dr. Lee! A glass of Toad Hall Pinot Noir!

Great to have you back on dry land!

Hi Lee!
Great to hear you had a good time. Did you tend bar on the ship just for old time sake? HAHA, just kidding!
You may want to post a few photos on your blog, it would terrific to see you finally enjoying life and not working so hard.
Take care!

On The High Seas!

Hi Lee,
Hey, have fun on your vacation, I'm completely jealous, but then again, after humping cocktails for 28 years, you certainly deserve it! The Disney Magic is fortunate to have a piece of Disney history sailing aboard.
Call when you steam back into port and watch out for pirates!

Former Club 33 Manager

Hi Lee!!!
I received an e-mail from a former manager of Club 33, but he may have been there before you came on board. Wonderful chap, very polite and professional.
His Name is Roger Craig. He actually worked at the club when they first opened in 1967 and eventually made manager.
Did you know him?
Thanks Lee, have a wonderful week!

The Famous People I Have Seen

A Good Bartender will say a few names, however a bartender hall of fame like Dr. Lee will mention no names. But let it be known that Dr. Lee has seen many faces, movie stars, sport figures, heads of state, ETC.
Thank You, and all the best
THE GOOD DOCTOR

Celebs? Who did you see the most?

Hi Lee,
Loved your personal history blog!
Say, I know the club has a number of celeb members, who did you see the most?
Thanks Lee, it's always nice to hear from you.

Hi Doc! Happy Easter!

Hi Lee,
Just wanted to write and tell you Happy Easter!!!! We just got back from the park, it's just not the same since you left. Lights don't quite burn as brightly.
Take Care!

Hello Everyone,

A little history about me working at Disney, it all started the very first part of December 1981 when I went for an interview. I remember opening the mail, and looking at the letter stating that I was a new cast member, I was very happy. My first attraction that I worked on as a new cast member, was the Mark Twain and this was December 12, 1981. Everybody was surprised that I got to work the Mark Twain, because all new cast members always had to work the Jungle Cruise first. It was there on the Mark Twain, where I got most of my guest compliments. In 1982 I also worked the shooting gallery, next to the Jungle Cruise, and the tree house. It was in the middle of summer of 1982 I was finally trained on the Jungle Cruise. It was about this time at the end of summer, and with 9 guest compliments I transfered to Club 33. My first job at the Club was dishwasher which I did for about 6 months. My next job was bus boy which I did for about a year. I can remember when my manager, Tom asked me if I wanted to be a bartender, and I laughed, and said, "Yes ," because I don't drink. It was there Dr. Lee was born, a future bartender hall of fame.

Your history at Disneyland!

Hi Doc,
I'd like to read about your history at the park. You know, when you were hired, where you worked, how you ended up working at the club. It would be intersting!!! Tidbits of information about the attractions, happenings behind the scenes that the public never sees.
Thanks!!

Celebs at the club??

Hi Lee,
Out of curiousity, who where the celebs you saw most at the club?

Whats Up Doc?

Hi Lee!
When you have time, please be sure to post where you're working these days. I somehow can't imagine you laying about house with nothing to do. I'm sure that somewhere out there is a high class restaurant in dire need of a Bartender Hall of Fame recipient to keep things pouring smoothly.
