Ahhhhh... there's the confusion. He's not socially inappropriate in any sort of bombastic way. When I first met him, I took him for a timid neurotypical. Shy. Between the two of us, I'm probably more socially inappropriate than he is. *Giggle.*

Working in Photopass, if a family ever walked up to me with some one on the cellphone, I would take it out of their hands, put it in my pocket (of course it was usually mom who was ok with the whole idea of getting the stupid thing stuck out of the kids/dad's ear). Then at the end of the picture taking, I would hand it back to mom and tell them, it's a family vacation, you're stuck with 4 others I'm sure you can think of things to talk about for a day!
I got a lot of laughs from the other family members that I was picking on the one who wanted to the farthest away from Disney.

The only time I use a cell phone in the parks is to coordinate meeting with the rest of my group, to make a last minute dining reservation, or to take a photo. I have a friend who calls me all the time when I am on vacation (doesn't she realize that I am also on vacation from her?!?) and I never answer when I'm in a park. It isn't really even about consideration for my family....I want to have fun, not talk on the phone!

You've learned that the operational part of vacation is vacate. :D:
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Ahh, Cell phones.. The pedestrian roadblock of happiness... Strolling through MK today I encountered a soul 'hanging out' in one of the 'single door wide' entrances to Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe.. The man saying (very politely) "excuse me" behind her looked like he was going to blow a fuse .. He just wanted to get in the door afterall... Wouldn't want to interrupt her call though...
Had a strange afternoon at the park.. witnessed a frustrated guest shouting at a CM at the turnstyles... Too bad he was too busy shouting irrationally toward the CM, instead of watching his step... Nearly took-out a wheelchair rider in the process...
While I don't condone the disregard public safety, I really am saddened by the fact that I missed out on a 'Complete' SGT experience :)
