merge point CM all the time....

Also at Jungle I remeber the Squirter was gone for 3 months and one
day it came back to our suprise so we all were bored and took bets on
wich rookie would not notice and run the squirter ... glad to say I won
when this "ROP" skipper came back to the dock with all the guest on his
boat soaking wet and all looking very pissed off....

I miss at pooh when we use to be able to play Cram as many Guests as
posible into a Vehicle my record was 15 :)

We played that game at mansion trying to see how many people we
could fit into the ER(elevator). They were only suppose to comfortably
hold 80 in ER#1 and 100 in ER#2. One day me and Scottie E[deleted] fit
196 people into ER2. There was bearly room for me to fit and it reached
the bottom of the shaft so fast and the doors were open before the lights
even went out. It was awesome!

At the movie ride we see how many we can cram into a row. I usually try
for 7 in a row, but I've had a couple rows in one vechile of 12. The rows
are supposed to hold 6 in each. And when a guest doesn't know how
many people in the party or reply with "all of us" I just cram more people
into that row.

microphones for the queue and ask the guests in line to wish an

birthday ... this has gone as far as guests wishing me "congratulations for
being pregnant!!!!"

At Matterhorn it was told to the guests over the PA that it was my last
day working because I was the new 4th member of Destiny's Child.
People actually believed it and were congradulating me.

It amazes me what people will believe. But then again, I myself will
admit that if you look up the work "gullible" in the dictionary you'll see
my picture. (Mr, it's my cancer patch. You know I'm talking to you!) :P

Some of my favorite boredom things at Jungle...
Sink or Swim is an interesting one but wears thin after about 5 minutes.
Spider Jumping at Merge which can get funny especially if you have a
guest scared to death of spiders who just keeps putting their fingers near
the cage.
Finding Spot and other various plastic animal toys hidden in the Jungle
by a few of the opening Skippers. (We don't play this one much lately
because some of the managers don't like it, pah to them)
and my personal favorite
FastPass Origami, yes the folding of FastPasses into frogs, crains, hearts,
and other shapes while at Distribution, Return, or Merge. (it's actually
quite entertaining when you get bored)

I one day one of our four keys nominees at indy folded the CDS
rotational bump into a crane. it was really neat, but i felt stupid walking
from film 2 to unload holding this delecate little crane, with pushy guests
on all sides.

As far as Fantasmic goes, i miss it ... but when we have to tell people
they can't sit/stand on the wall one of the skippers/archeologists will tell
people "Because there's spiders" and just kinda simle at them, then their
tend to be on thier way, i tell htem it's because i don't want to see them
fall and hurt themselves (ever so slightly implying crack thier heads open)
which has happened at main street station, some guest was inept at
getting on or off the 25 cent scale, and craked his head right open, one
of the conductors took over the scene, got everything squared away, and
once the guy was gone and it was just his brain matter sitting there, he
ran backstage and threw up.
