Maybe their service ain't too good in FL and CA, but in the south they do right nice.

Well I don't get to the Cracker Barrel very often, so I indulged. ;-) <Did I miss something? TDG is a nude beach fan?> Lol, Mr. X nude beaches were brought up in another thread. I said I've never been to one, but I wouldn't be opposed to goin' to one.
Originally Posted By DVC_dad Concerning the original post, CM's out of character...I have posted the following story before but it's been over a year. I'm not sure if I should re-post it or not, but what the heck I guess I will. DisneyLAND , October 2001. Besides, this may be the one time being out of character was a little bit acceptable. It goes like this: Every single time I hear the word Matterhorn I recall a story that I cannot post in exact detail here, but you'll get the idea. Basically it was fairly cold that day (October 2001) at DL and a "30 something" female CM came rushing onto the scene of the Matterhorn Que as if either late or replacing someone. She began right away working as a sort of grouper I suppose you might say, and needless to say she was VERY attractive. However, as I said, it was a somewhat cold that morning and she was wearing a huge blue long heavy coat that didn't seem to fit in very well with the rest of the outfit, like maybe she belonged on the boats in Story Book land or something, and oddly enough she had on a skirt with white stockings of some kind, ... Anyway she seemed like she was in an all fired up rush to get to this post, or maybe she could have been hungover, or just out to lunch mentally being late to work, I really don't know. In her haste to get up to full speed at what she was doing, she backed into this kid, lost her balance while walking backwards, and fell down in the grouping area right onto this kid...almost as if she were drunk but I don't think she was. Anyway as she fell onto her back, her feet flew waaay up in the air, bless her heart, her skirt came up...her stockings were not pantyhose, but at least she DID remember to don her most under of under garments that morning. So she fell down in a most animated way, whereby I was privy to a more or less private show of sorts, as chance would have it, being at just the proper place at just the precise time, and she being quite the looker besides... I really couldn't believe what I was seeing. In my mind it all happened in slow motion. lol Anyway I am a happily married man and totally faithful to my wife, and in spite of this I must admit, shamefully nonetheless, that the Matterhorn ride and any mention of it have been the source of many a hearty smile on my face, since. My wife was right there, saw the whole thing as well, and we both still laugh about it today. For some reason I seem think it's a lot more amusing than my DW seems to think, and for some reason I laugh a little more heartily than she does. Go figure. The girl got up, recovered her composure and was far more concerned with the fat kid she fell over than she was with herself, however I did hear clearly as she uttered two words that I cannot post here as she was falling.

Same thing with the face characters. During my time in the parks, they're real and I'm always willing to keep up the illusion for the thousands of kids (and kids-at-heart) who surround me. It's just a little thing I do. Sincerely, John Kilduff
