Lou...

I suspect you're refering to me. That's ok, I like it.
I'd like to take your post as tongue in cheek trash talk, but I'm not sure that's the case. Fell free to correct me if I'm wrong though.
Assuming, for now, that I'm right, I recall a while back you took a post I made tongue in cheek as serious. This last post I made was just kidding around, stirring the sports pot.
There is something about me that makes you think I'm being serious. Maybe it's me. I'm hardly ever serious, it's trash talk and you shouldn't take it any other way. Maybe it's because we've never met, don't know.
Anyway to set the record straight and to maybe change how you look at me, I lived in the Tampa Bay area for a long time after leaving New England. We raised kids there. Had a successful law practice in Clearwater.
I was very active in the community and am solely responsible for forming the first high school robotics team in Florida that competes in a national competition. That high school is in St Pete and the team still competes.
We were there when the Devil Rays were formed. We were there when the Lightning were formed. We've gone to numerous Rays games. Supported the Bucs. Attended Rays and Bucs practice sessions. I was there for the Bucs Super Bowl victory.
To put it in perspective, if Jacksonville had a baseball or hockey team and there were Fiends that were fans, I'd trash talk them too.

They put out a memo and road signs about not texting and driving, but nothing on taking pictures and driving.

In Carol's current TR, she brought up the bus situation at Pop and hoped that they weren't going to share with AOA.
In addition to the regular buses sent by the bus hubs to the resorts, Pop and CBR have a bunch of dedicated buses staged and on call until noon in the CM parking lot located at the CBR. The bus dispatch center for those buses is located in, of all places, a closet size room in the drivers break room at Epcot, which is where I was today. They have real time video of Pop and that's how they know when and to what bus stop to send another bus. Someone is watching you.
I was talking to the dispatcher about what the plan was for AOA. As I thought, they will not share buses. AOA will be part of the Pop, CBR dedicated bus setup in the morning but they will be separate.

That's the kind of TR I would write, if I ever wrote one that is.
Welcome to FF.Net and don't be a stranger.
Make sure you post when you're going to be at the Fort so I can stop by and harass say hi.

Our plan is to be full timers in about 3 years.
We'll sell or close the doors on the business in Kissimmee, sell the Florida house, buy the 42' Winnebago MH that we've already picked out, and we're gone.
When we've had enough, we'll live in the Georgia house during the summer and in the MH in Florida during the winter.

I've been given small gifts, been asked for a hug, it was a little boy so I was ok with it. paid compliments for my driving, done high fives, gotten thank you cards, but today was a first.
This really happy and friendly small group got on my bus this morning at CBR when all of a sudden one of them yelled out, lets sing "hail to the bus driver". Which they did. They had a song all prepared hailing, yes, me. It was too funny and I really got a kick out of it. I told them they should have waited until I got them to their destination in one piece.

Yes it is.

Hey, where's the mom of these six girls?
Oh wait, one is the mom, kinda hard to tell.

Good to have you here and of course I'm sure everyone will welcome you with open arms, and thanks for your service.
Most of us do remember that thread and your response. The real Fiends knew what you posted was done tongue and cheek. It was some idiot poster, probably from the main board, that took it as being snarky and the seeds for the flush had been planted.
So yes, I guess you can take credit for being the instigator.
I thought we would have heard from you much sooner though.
Besides me being at the Fort, there will be a few Fiends there after the 1st.

Magicbus Cookie Bars, oh wait, I read that wrong, never mind.

I solved that problem, I never wrote a first one.
And here's a little secret just between you and me. TRs go by a lot quicker because I don't look at any of the photos that don't have the writer or their family in it.

Lisa, or maybe it was Bruce, asked if there was a procedure that bus drivers use to request a time out when nature calls. After all, the driving time without a break can be as long as 4-1/2 hours.
The answer was yes, and if you ride the buses, you may have heard it.
At the resort after guests have boarded and the bus is ready to return to the park, the driver will contact the dispatcher on the radio and request a "quick 10-7".
It should be requested at that time so that the next run is not sent to the on-board terminal.

Oh geez, the Queen of Content is at MK. Can 300 photos of the EWP be far behind?
If only that fancy dancy Nikon camera fell in the lake while you were snapping photos.
At least give me a warning.

Like I haven't seen you do that before. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

There, that's better.

I have a very similar photo to yours, except they're my gran-daughters. They're about the same age as your little girls.
They had a great time.
