No more talking trash

Dis News reports that PUSH, the talking trashcan, will no longer appear at the Magic Kingdom. The trashcan was a lot of fun.  One day we were having a conversation and I left the can temporarily speechless by an answer I gave to one of its questions.  To its credit, after an awkward pause, the can came back with a pretty good rejoinder.  I wonder how many people knew that the trashcan's name was PUSH?  Good trivia question.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, the contract between Disney and the man behind PUSH expired this weekend and attempted negotiations failed. Disney did not discuss why the contract was not extended.
Information in the Orlando Sentinel from the trashcan's developer indicated there was a dispute with Disney over ownership rights. We'll miss PUSH.  Too bad there wasn't another trashcan named SHOVE.
