Hi rex,
I'm pretty new here too, but so far everyone has been great. :)
my wife has been posting here for a long time though, so I am familiar with most of the people, and all of them are gems :)

What I don't understand is why people want to dress like that? Do they really think everyone wants to see all their goodies hanging out? What's bad is these are the same people that complain when a movie has a bra strap showing.
Was at another theme park one summer with my aumt and younger female cousin. There was this woman in front of us in line, half dressed with her breast almost falling out. My cousin said "Mom, look at that lady." My aunt replied "Yes I see her. Her mother didn't teach her any better did she?" The woman turned and gave a dirty look. I just couldn't help but laugh.
If they don't want people to look at them, then don't dress that way.

Hi. I hope it's ok that I'm just hopping in here without a "formal" introduction!?
I've seen CMs at the gates turn guests away who were wearing shirts with sayings that were deemed in appropriate. Also, have seen them tell women in bikini tops that they needed a shirt to enter.
However, that was years ago. Now, I see all sorts of inappropriate phrases (granted, totally subjective) on t-shirts and any number of women in bikini tops or other swimsuits (with shorts).
Has something changed about the dress code enforcement, or is is that there are just not enough CMs to do the sort of interventions that were being done before?

I saw this on the news, and was ROFL at the utter and complete appropriateness to this thread:
KABC-TV (Los Angeles, Calif.):
Woman arrested wearing only bathing suit

I think the only thing that has changed is that many departments are not in the same page, and obviously there is NO communication. In characters, for example, we were told that wearing the top of a bikini
was allowed. In fact I know an incident with a character that earn him a reprimand because he refuse to take a picture with a kid that was
really inappropriate dressed. According to our management we couldn't do anything, even if she was inappropriately dressed, just because we had water parks. Still the character would not take the picture and that's why he got a reprimand.
After reading this thread I have to admit that I'm not only confused, but absolutely flabbergasted. To be honest I would LOVE that someone from 'upstairs' would actually clarify that to the managers on Entertainment and forced them to enforce the rule.

The old dog excuse fails again.

Her name somehow sounds familiar. But the reasoning is stupid. Was the dog in any danger? If so, why didn't she stay at the scene of the hit-and-run and turn on the A/C? Or ask the cops to let her attend to the dog's welfare? Nothing about the dog being injured or otherwise in distress. Of course if she had driven more carefully, the accident may never have happened, and the city would've been spared the effort and expense of chasing her and arresting her. As for the bathing suit--the media is really getting desperate to have their stories stand out. What she was wearing is irrelevant. But they needed that angle, and I guess the dog excuse wasn't strong enough. At least she wasn't wearing a string bikini, with her build.

Agreed. She was not arrested for wearing a bathing suit. she was arrested for hit and run.
