the stupidity has begun already

It doesn't count when you bring in your own rum. :D:

But when you do, the have a bar charge!!

(we actually used to have to buy our alcohol on base, and "check it in" to a bar to be served, as they did not serve hard alcohol, only brewski's)

RUM!!

Then pray they place you at Magic Kingdom. :D:

Well, I did have it as one of my preferences. Maybe I'll get lucky, like I did last summer with Epcot. :)

That would be wonderful if you got your wish again. In fact, I learned that if you want to find some characters, you really need to look for them. I found Fairy Godmother behind Cinderella Castle and Chicken Little on Main Street today.

Sadly, I was never carded in WDW. I must be getting older. In Texas I am carded a lot at places I am not known because alcohol laws here are nuts in the Bible belt. $5k fine and up to 1yr in jail for selling to a minor. Also seen a lot of big time places around here get shut down. One was a Chilis, the only one in town and was always packed. They were caught on their first offense for a minor drinking in there (the minor wasn't even sold the alcohol) and they were shut down for a few months. Due to loss of revenue they just shut their doors for good.

BTW... your FOURTH CP? Awesome. I would love to go back but I don't know if I can afford it.

That is weird. I get yelled at about half the time when I ask for ID with an unsigned card. Then they yell even louder when I tell them they have to sign it before I'll accept it.

A few even ask for the nearest ATM and walk off. Yeah, like they'll get enough cash out to pay for a week at a Disney resort!

I'm sure this isn't news to Zazu, but he's right. I checked VISA's web site, and if you go to page 29 of their rules for merchants you will find exactly what Zazu says: If the card isn't signed you can't accept it until they sign it in front of you and you compare the signature to the one on their ID. It also says you're not allowed to accept cards that just say "See ID", they have to be signed in front of you and checked against the ID as well.

Hey, I got carded once. When I was 21.
Never got carded since.
Matronly looking since 1983 :(

I hear you!

Jeez, I have never been carded. Even when drinking in the bars at 18 (overseas and legal!)

But when you do, the have a bar charge!!

RUM!!

Was this in Olangapo City?

I don't get carded anymore... :( Sadly I am old. I do get told I look 10 yrs younger, but that would put me in my forties, alas, not young enough to be carded.

I think I would kiss the first person who carded me now. Well, it would depend. HE would have to look like Disney's Tarzan or Hercules for me to do that! hahahahahaha

I would HUG the first person who carded me at my matronly age. I like that Disneymom! Matronly!

YOU, Disneymom, however, are NOT matronly. I have met you and I can say with certainty, Disneymom, is NOT matronly! She is very cute! :p:

Awwwww, Susi! blushes

Maybe my child-like mind detracts from the matronly figure

And I will use this opportunity to say that Susi does indeed look at least 10 years younger than her chronological age!
Unfortunately hard to see that if she is running your ass over with her ECV! :p:
It is just a big blur!

Like I tell my DW, when I was there, I just stayed on base and went to the library or the movies!!! (of course, that was almost 20 years BEFORE I met DW)

hehehehe

(yes, and other places)

Thanks!

And that is very true. I have had to look hard to find characters.

BTW... your FOURTH CP? Awesome. I would love to go back but I don't know if I can afford it.

It's a lot of fun.

I have had to look hard to find characters.

Don't work hard, work smart! Drop by City Hall or Guest Relations and ask them to call the Chip Hotline for you. Chip may spend his time in a cupboard, but he does keep track of where all the characters are each day.
