Tell me God wasn't tempting me to eat some fatty foods when I passed this McDonalds (two weeks ago).
Honestly, the only reason we saw Potter is because Ice Age and Transformers were sold out. The double feature wit Potter included The Hangover. My kids fell asleep during Potter (9-12 PM) and woke up and watched all of The Hangover. It's an adult movie with lots of swearing (my kids said) but it's f-ing funny as hell. Can you imagine my 9 an 11 year olds hated Potter and liked The Hangover. Harry Potter an the Hal-Blood Prince really sucks.
A few years back, Disney added high-speed Internet over their cable TV COAX network at their campgound, Fort Wilderness. We've stayed at the every year, sometimes twice, for the last six. On at least three of those occasions, I've had to called their support for help setting it up.
I have the exact same Linksys network at home, which I've ran for more than 10 years with little trouble. If I'm having repeated problems, then imagine how much trouble the tech un-savvy have.
I called their tech support and they were no help. They said a technician would be out later to check the cable signal. I never saw any technician and they never got back to me.
I checked the Internet connectivity at every chance, fiddled with their COAX and was able to get a connection 4-5 times over 3 days. Never for more than a half hour.
I also stopped by the Crockett's Tavern on the North end of the campground. They supposedly had WiFi. I connected to the signal but couldn't load a page. I asked the bartender and she told me they have WiFi, but that it never works. She told me to try the WiFi at the snack bar near the swimming pool.
The next day, at the swimming pool, I couldn't locate an open signal. The snack bar attendant said she didn't think they had WiFi.
The 3rd day, I tried the WiFi at the registration office. Again, I couldn't locate a signal. The clerk told me they definitely had WiFi. I browsed the room and found a very weak signal at one end of the room.
Even when I was able to connect, the webpages rendered very slowly. Too frustrating for someone use to highspeed. I did the minimal surfing to run my website, but fell far behind on my work.
I'm simply amazed that an organization that prides itself on quality, struggles so much offering Internet at their campgound.
If you are driving thru Jacksonville Florida, then you are gonna have to take a long bridge over water. The city must spend the most per capita on bridges of any city in the world. I'm sure the residents are bored with their bridges, but I always like to take a different highway thru the city to enjoy all of their long bidges.
I worked in Jacksonville for a week a few years back. The bad part of all these bridges is that you can't walk (or run) anywhere. You have to drive. The workers use to drive across the street to get their coffee fix. A lack of sidewalks is another contributing factor. This might explain why Jacksonville residents aren't the most fit in the country.
This person moved back and forth six times over several minutes before she got it between the lines. Unfortunately, her front end was 3-4 feet out into the driving lane. And she had the help of her two teenaged kids.
Who took it the worst because of the massive problems in the Michigan auto-industry? How about the Michigan I-75 going south from Detroit to Toledo. It was bump-bump-bump-bump-bump for the entire hour. I've always considered Michigan highways to be some of the worst I've driven. Now they are officially ahead of the Pittsburgh and Buffalo.
