Ever wonder who wins those big prizes?

Hey, Monkey Brad! You recently attended Monkey David's wedding in beautiful La Jolla. What are you gonna do now? I'm going to Disney World! Yep, while David and his new betrothed are kickin' it in French Polynesia, my Mrs. Monkey and I are headed off to Florida.

Last year my wife entered the Health & Wealth Raffle on a lark at the last minute. It's a worthy cause, after all. Boom, she wins a

trip for four to Disney World: air fare, hotel, park tickets, the works. Of course, she's already bought another ticket for this year's raffle. We feel somewhat obligated now.

And we're not taking the kids! (No, we don't feel guilty. They've been to Disneyland. One day they'll be old enough for the Kissimmee experience, but not yet.) We're taking some friends instead. How often does one get a chance to do something like that? Praise the Lord and pass the Mickey ears!

Days' worth of lesson plans, worksheets and quizzes have been prepared for my subs, the cat sitter is arranged, we've got a full contingent of Finite Monkeys online, and you can expect some epic pieces from Monkey Ben any day now. I'll see you next week with after-action reports on the current state of The American Experience at Epcot and excerpts from interviews I've been able to line up that promise some great moments with several former presidents.
