Bring me the head of Mickey Mouse

Sometimes i really hate my job

Howdy folks,

My travels take me to Southern California (yet again) this week. Normally i enjoy it down here. The weather is usually good, and there's lots to do when i'm off work. But this week...

I'm across the street from the gates of hell! Or as some call it. DISNEYLAND!

I hate the evil mouse. Even when i was a kid ( i was and still am a big fan of Warner Bros.) I never came here like most kids. I now know that i didn't miss much. Screaming brats everywhere. Running the hallways of the hotel unsupervised all hours of the night. (These parents never heard of kidnapping apparantly) Overpriced bootleg souviners, crappy food, no booze, I'ts HELL i tell ya.

Last night i went for a walk after work. Any of you who have ever strolled down Harbor Blvd know that it's chock full of people in the evening. Is the entire population of Japan over here right now? What is their fascination with this place? I'ts kinda creepy if you ask me. Thousands of japanese folks, wandering around in wide eyed glory in packs of ....Oh.... Let's say a hundred or so, marveling at the "magical" kingdom. I hope they don't think every city in the US is like this.

No matter how bad the kids and tourists are, there is one group of people that scare me the most. HORNY SOCCER MOMS! (or anti-MILF's). Normally i don't care if i get scoped by a woman. It's kind of flattering. But dozens of times? Yeah, that three seat stroller makes you reeeal attractive. That and the crewcut make me wet. I can understand checking someone out in a passing glance, but i got a few stares last night that made me feel dirty on the inside. dirty dirty dirrrrty! Like showing a starving dog a pork chop. (notice i didnt say steak out of my sense of low self esteem)

Is it too late to call in an air strike?

I wanna go home.

Thanks for reading,

glad yer back and thanks for bringin the temperature down as well.

i've lived in socal since nixon was president and never been closer to disneyland than the convention center parking lot. i haven't been to anaheim for a while either but now you have me wondering whether the hookers who used to troll harbor are now disguising themselves s soccermoms?

SLC, YOU STUD MUFFIN!!!!

It's the Utah in you!

Just remember, the younger, hotter ones that are checking you our over the stroller? Are just babysitting! ;~D

I hope they get the idea that all cities in the US are like that, then they'll be satisfied with what they see there and go back to Japan.

I used to wonder this when I went to Honolulu. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I've always used the "check and go" style... kind of like a hockey player. I've never liked being stared at, so I've always tried not to stare. Do unto others and all that...

I hear ya Chip. Most of them were casual glances, which is cool. But a couple of them were giving me the willies.

King,

I doubt the hookers would be pushing a triple stroller full of kids...But it could be a case of "Marketing to the enviroment" for all i know.
