Shhh, March, icksnay on the ediJay...

What? No. he didn't say anything about me being a Jedi.

My mother isn't the Sith you were looking for.

Move along.

Move along.

What? What is that you ask? Okay, so I have made a lightsaber or two in my time but they were crocheted...

and the first one wasn't stuffed right. It looked rather...droopy (okay so i have a less polite word but I don't want to use it LOL)

I can post pictures. . .

My schnauzer is conflicted, German dog with a Japanese name that thinks it's a bird. :p:

Mine is a fearless anole (green lizard) hunter. That is until today. She was tracking one and it jumped and tried to bite her. She was so traumatized she spent the rest of the afternoon under my office chair. Poor little poochie.

Today it was a guest who was mightily unhappy with the room she booked. Unhappy because it was exactly what she had paid for. She had gone through the CM next to me in under five minutes, and demanded a manager who came out and offered her all of the alternatives the CM had.

In her frustration, she pointed at him and demanded that he leave the desk, as she didn't even want him listening to her. Much chagrined, he retreated backstage.

More yelling, more demands, and since we were full, still not the view she felt entitled to, so she then pointed to me, standing at the next station, not saying a word, and pretending not to be listening, and demanded that I too be banished, for I was also ruining her vacation, and indeed her entire Florida experience!

My fellow CM and I had a good laugh about it as we waited for her to blow out... and eventually take the same offer he had made to her in the first minute.

I wonder what color the sky is on the planet these people come from?
As I recall the sky on Venus is yellowish-white.
:p:

When something is not right with my room at the resorts, I usually call back and see what can be sone to correct the problem. Our room back in Oct. 2009 had issues. There was a nice letter from management that they were repairing a few items and it should be ok by the end of the evening.

Yup, everything was ok except for the phone calling to the front desk was out of order for a few days. I went to the lobby each evening and told them what time we wanted to get up. They did a good job at all star music. :)

Oct 2009, My flight went from MCO to Houston TX. I flew on Continental. The second plane that I was to catch from there was delayed back in New York with bad weather. The plane was 3 hours late. My flight was going to take off at 7:21 pm instead of 5:30 pm. The plane and new crew got to the gate. They got us on and compted everyone everything. That's nice. When the plane got up to cruising altitude, the pilot came on and told us why the plane was late. On the East coast the airport has a company called Chelsee catering. The catering truck driver was not paying attention and crashed the top layer of the food truck into the side door of the jet. The truck driver pulled back discovering that they had smashed a hole into the side door. OOPS!!! :mad:

Next time when I travel out to FL, I will take Jet Blue. They have nice planes and you can bring your won food on the plane from home. The only catch is that a beer is $5 and you are limited 2 on each plane. :eek:
