Welcome back to another edition of the Chip & Company Week in Review!  Let’s take a look at some of the great Disney news that you might have missed:

• Do you run (or walk)?  Are you interested in participating in the Princess Half Marathon Weekend?  Then check out this post!  Don’t worry; you don’t have to participate in the half marathon!
• Have you seen The Lion King in 3D yet?  If not, you better get going, I’ve heard it is only a 2-week showing, and that will end on the 30^th!
• Will the Lone Ranger ride again?  I don’t know, but Patrick reported that the news is looking good!
• The Buddies are back – Spooky Buddies, that is!

That’s our look at some of the news stories from last week, now let’s take a look at some of the incredible original articles that our writers produce each and every day!  Enjoy!

• My friend Brenda is the writer for the Wednesday’s With Walt series.  This week Brenda got it just right when she wrote “One Big, Happy Disney Community.”
• Lee gives us a review of the movie “The Count of Monte Cristo” – now available on Blu-Ray and DVD!
• Lastly, Jenn gives us a kid’s look at ride restrictions – can you ride all the rides you want to now?
