What is so Difficult about a Turnstile

[Zazu]

Not noted for its abundance in Congress either.

SWMBO tells of a recent report where the language used on the floor of Congress was tested. While formerly much higher, it now rates a Fog index of 10 -- equivalent to a sophomore in high school.

So the next time you think Congress is acting sophomoric, you'll know that they talk that way too!

Not that I believe in the inherent intelligence of Congress, but the analysis on that one does leave somewhat to be desired. It doesn't deal with rhetoric well, for one thing, nor does it deal with persuasiveness and the like. Many of the great speeches we often think of don't rate particularly well.

I find this insulting. To my sophomore younger son, that is.

If we're bidding, I would like to raise the stakes to second grade-ish. After all, the tenth-grade score is an average, right?

Oh, and this is a very special post for me, 4960, for a reason no one else will probably appreciate. There is a bus on property, 4960, and I was the driver to ever operate that bus with guests aboard. It was always a special bus to me, since I got to smell its new bus smell. In fact, I had to drive from VM South to FIW to pick up the insurance card!

Now, back to our general bashing of any crooked member of the government (and that would be all of them in the Executive or Legislative Branches. I can't say Judicial since I know one person who is in that area, works for the government, and actually happens to be a respectable baritone).

If I remember correctly, 4960 is one of the 2009 series Gilligs?

Should be '07. After that batch it was quite a while before they got new buses. Now it seems I can't keep up. And that's saying something.

We had a wonderful family this afternoon at the turnstile. They came up to the turnstile with tickets that they bought of someone on craigslist. Of course they didn't work. The coordinator went ahead, voided the tickets. This made them even madder. So they ran to GR who told them sorry they were not getting in unless they bought new tickets.

Of course they didnt want to hear that so they went back to the turnstile and tried to argue their way how it was not there fault at all. Again they got sent back to GR.

They went back and forth three times between different turnstiles, managers and GR Managers before they started screaming how horrible Disney was. Security then came over and that was the last I saw of the them.

They're just mad they allowed themselves to get scammed and putting the blame on Disney.

Good old Craigslist. I'm trying to sell a boat. Every time I renew the ad I get a flurry of emails from people that want to pay through PayPal. The funny part is they all use the same basic cover story stating they're offshore in some job and want to buy it for a close relative.

I'll string them along for a while before telling them to go have sex with themselves but in more descriptive terms. ;)

I guess people really do not do any research before buying tickets. This is something I just do not understand. If I am going to spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on tickets I want to be a 100 percent sure they are legit.

Buying something like tickets off craiglist just seems so risky.

Also these vendors off 192 that claim to sell cheap disney tickets. The tickets say non tranferable right on the ticket. Why would anybody buy a used ticket that says non transferable. To me if I saw that on a used ticket I would have red flags going off in my head.

Its just insane
