Hola!  My name is Brant, but my alter ego is Joe Carioca (the hopeless romantic parrot from The Three Caballeros).  I'm 21 and live in Toms River, NJ, and am majoring in Communication Arts at Ramapo College. I enjoy writing, movies, travel, and retaining massive amounts of Disney and non-Disney trivia. And Sunday nights I host the official PassPorter Trivia Chat Game, so I'm naturally ecstatic to be a PassPorter Guide for the "Behind The Scenes: Trivia and Rumors" forum!

Although I have the academics thing going, I have been to Walt Disney World fourteen times in my life, including four solo trips. My earliest memory of WDW would have to be when I was about 6-years-old, and being overwhelmed by the massive interior of Space Mountain; those giant meteors can be intimidating to a little boy!

Now that I'm older and have stumbled upon joy of traveling to WDW alone, I usually try to make it to the parks at least twice a year.  You may find me trading pins or trying to get into the Hot Seat at "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire -- Play It!" at Disney-MGM Studios.

My next solo venture is in the summer of 2003. With trusty PassPorter and the indispensable message boards close by, I hope to continue learning new things (especially trivia!) from my fellow PassPorters. And then, one day, perhaps meet a girl who can name all of Ariel's seven sisters.
