Anybody miss me?

Didn't think so. Likewise, fukksticks.

Well, overall my florida trip was pretty cool. Did have some difficulties getting there. We voluntarily got bumped for our hartford to newark flight. Continental gave use 1200 bucks worth of their ticket funny money for our troubles. So rather than a boeing or airbus we flew a crown vic taxi to newark compliments of air achmed or whatever the fukk his name was.

So we got into florida a bit late that day. Did seaworld the next day.

Rack the fukk outta seaworld for allowing active duty and active reservists a free day at their place once a year. While there we went to the AB hospitality tent. They had grub there and free AB products!!!! Yeah, it ain't the best stuff around, but, I'll bet there ain't a single beer snob troll in this place that will turn that shit up for free. Besides, they had their supposed good stuff there. I had an AB version of a black and tan, which was their stout mixed with bud. Not bad, especially for free.

And wouldn't you know that when free suds is being handed out, them fukkin' limeys would be right there at the head of the line. I am sure they joked about what watered down piss it was, but, they sure as hell was drinking the fukk outta it! Disneyworld was absolutely over run with red coats. I guess out worthless dollar makes florida disney a better deal than eurodisney, even with the 9 hour plane ride.

And I would like to know why the fukk central florida was windy and mid 60s this time of year? I am sure algore could explain how global warming actually makes florida feel more like san francisco this time of year. Good thing this was not a beach trip. It warmed up by wednesday when we took a break from the disney horde and drove down to ft meyers beach to visit my mom. Hey wolfman, you go out to the pier much? There is a burrito joint there, burrito a gogo that was pretty good. I am sure the so and locals will tell me how much better there's are, but, oh well.

We flew back today. The wife and daughter got back fine, but, my son and I took another bump and ended up in providence rather than hartford.

So with 2 voluntary bumps, continental owes me 2000 bucks worth of flights. That ought to get me about half a ticket somewhere next summer when JP-8 is going for about 9 bucks a gallon. Actually continental will probably just go tits up by then and I'll get jack shit.

One other thing. As we walked up to the back check area at the magic kingdom, I noticed the name tag on a pudgy black rent a cop doing bag checking duty. It said......Dinsdale. I started to go for my camera thinking this could be the best wytch fodder in the history of the interweb, but, the crowd behind me was restless and taking a pic of some renta cop dude might have looked slightly gax. And my explanation to the OL would have just gotten me the "you're a dumbass" look. Looking back I should have shot the pic anyway.

hahaha

The board comes FIRST, smacky.
Real life shmucks can get fist-fucked if they don't like you robbing them of 3 seconds of their sad life so that you can snap a pic of balck Dinsdale.

Next time, GET the shot.

This week I took a pic of a slant restaurant named somethingFelice.
I laffed.

I'll post it in my South Korea PET ... if I do the PET.

You were gone? :D

Flew (feel like saying "rode") on a United airbus last weekend when I went to Austin to visit the OCfamily. WOW! Nice fukkin' plane, some? When I saw the announcement on the news a while back, I remember joking to the OL that I'd never fly on anything with "bus" in the name, but damn was this thing sharp.

There was this cool screen gimmick that came down from the area where those mask gimmicks drop if the cabin pressure is compromised (no, it didn't replace them) where some nog in a stewardess outfit does the seatbelt and exit demonstration with a smile. This was refreshing, as the "please kill me" looks from sky waitresses on my last few flights as they demonstrated how to put the empty margarine tub on your face was a bit disconcerting to say the least.

The screens then went up, to my disappointment, as I felt it was kinda stupid to put something like that to waste, even though it was only a 3 hour flight. Surprisingly, considering how notoriously cheap airlines are ("Would you like to buy a snack pack on your $400 flight, sir?") the screens came back down and they announced that they'd be playing "National Treasure: Book of Secrets". Hardly a four-star flick, but it would pass the time for a couple of hours and wasn't out on DVD yet, so RACK me for getting over on the legion *cough* *cough* of Nicholas Cage fans out there.

They then announced that "NBC on United" would be playing episodes of their highest-rated shows including "Ugly Betty". Nooooooooooo... Never seen the show, but I'm thinking it's NBC's "Two and a Half Men". Fortunately, they showed two episodes of "30 Rock", which is a pretty decent show.

The entertainment certainly made the flight go faster, and was a huge step up from the last time I saw a movie on an airline, which was coincidentally also a Nick Cage flick. In 1987, on my way to Germany (I was an exchange student, not being extradited), they showed "Peggy Sue Got Married" on Lufthansa. As an added treat, they were happy to announce that you could listen to "Peggy Sue hat Geheiratet" with the audio in German, by changing audio channels. Ooooh...were do I sign up? The only thing worse than listening to Cage's performance in that flick in English was to watch his over-acting on the screen and hear some flat, monotone kraut rattle off the dialogue in rapid-fire Deutsch. I'd rather stick a wasabe-d fork in my eye.

Oh, and rack the Old Man for donating airline miles to the OCmike conjugal visit program. He racks them up every year while flying around to computer conferences (yeah, we're a family of nerds...shaddap :D ), but never uses them since most of the flights you can pick from leave early in the morning or late at night.

BTW, SA, I went to the AB pavilion at Busch Gardens in FL in the 90's and back then the place was full of Euros and Limeys trying to get shit-faced on 6 oz cups of beer too. The more things change...

One other thing I forgot to mention about the trip. As a result of getting bumped on the way down, we got to ride in the front of the bus from newark to orlando.

"woooohooooo!!!!!" I thought. Free booze and grub!!!! all you can eat/drink. Well, I did get three free fosters (not much of a selection) but there was no fukking dinner service!!!!! I got the same microbags of pretzels as the unwashed masses riding back in steerage. wtf? flying really has gone to shit.

Black Dinsdale? Too funny. Reminds me of a post I saw in the Archive and read for the first time this week. This particular thread was about BROWN Dinsdale, though. http://www.theoneboard.com/board/viewto ... 11&t=21484

Good God that was funny. So what's board etiquette for racking an old thread that a new poster finds for the first time? Ah, screw it. Rack BROWN Dinsdale again for that thread!

I was on that pier for a good 20 minutes or so taking pictures of pelicans. Got some shots of one with a cool looking fish hook earing. Didn't see a single puka or pink polo. Too bad. I woulda enjoyed chopping you up and feeding you to the pelicans.
