How long does that pin promotion go for? I know one of the travel agency's has a free lanyard when you go to a souvenier shop and give them a voucher for it.
I have seen SG approach the carts asking for the free stuff, sorry, a popcorn cart is not the Westward Ho Trading Co.
These vending carts don't have the lanyards first. And second, that SG has to go to a shop to get their freebies.

No idea but the sooner it ends the better. There's a LOT of pins for the promotion left so I have a feeling it won't be soon.

Our homeowners association has been dealing with the same kinda jerk for quite a while. He went as far as appealing one of his issues to the 9th Circuit Court Of Appeals. His lawyer barely got her first sentence out when one of the judges nailed her between the eyes.
We heard yesterday thet their appeal had been denied. Hooooo Haaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

The three judges we got may have been mellowed out by hanging out at the beach before the hearing. Our wack job does have the option of appealing to the full circuit court or going the Supreme route. We believe he's broke so this may be the end.

I believed your little fairy tale until I got here. Seriously, everyone knows that the Emporium people want nothing to do with the Street! :twisted:

Parking ran out of coupons very early on today. It was nice, only had to give pins to a few guests, instead of the hundreds or thousands we have most days.
I started my day back in pins this afternoon and when I heard about the coupons being out I was so happy.
Sadly I think this is only a lull in the storm. I believe Parking will be getting more coupons in.

Hey Shorty82,
It could be worst. We just had a moderate earthquake out here. 4.5 and it was felt all over. I was here IM my friends when the quake shook. I freaked out and ran out of my place. The last thing you want to do when wearing socks for safety. A big silent boom finshed after the quake.

What a chicken. That was a fun ride and not very long. A good hard jolt on the north/south axis I believe as my desk and I met at my hip so probably noth and south direction. I adjusted my pillows so I was firmly upright and against the steamer trunks in case another hit but none have that I can tell. Life continued on for me as if nothing happened, lol.
