Holiday Hootennanies with Scarlett and the Fam Damily! Day Two, Part 4, Updated 4/25 - Page 8 - PassPorter - A Community of Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, and General Travel Forums
As of January 1, 2019, we have closed our forums. This is a decision we did not come to lightly, but it is necessary. The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk. The server software itself must be updated, and it cannot be without removing the forums.
So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our long-running forums. They came online in 2000 and brought together so many wonderful Disney fans. We had friendships form, careers launch, couples marry, children born ... all because of this amazing community.
Thank you to each of you who were a part of this community. You made it possible.
And a very special thank you to our Guides (moderators), past and present, who kept our forums a happy place to be. You are the glue that held everything together, and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you aliceinwdw, Caldercup, MrsM, WillCAD, Fortissimo, GingerJ, HiddenMickey, CRCrazy, Eeyoresmom, disneyknut, disneydani, Cam22, chezp, WDWfan, Luvsun, KMB733, rescuesk, OhToodles!, Colexis Mom, lfredsbo, HiddenMickey, DrDolphin, DopeyGirl, duck addict, Disneybine, PixieMichele, Sandra Bostwick, Eeyore Tattoo, DyanKJ130, Suzy Q'Disney, LilMarcieMouse, AllisonG, Belle*, Chrissi, Brant, DawnDenise, Crystalloubear, Disneymom9092, FanOfMickey, Goofy4Goofy, GoofyMom, Home4us123, iamgrumpy, ilovedisney247, Jennifer2003, Jenny Pooh, KrisLuvsDisney, Ladyt, Laughaholic88, LauraBelle Hime, Lilianna, LizardCop, Loobyoxlip, lukeandbrooksmom, marisag, michnash, MickeyMAC, OffKilter_Lynn, PamelaK, Poor_Eeyore, ripkensnana, RobDVC, SHEANA1226, Shell of the South, snoozin, Statelady01, Tara O'Hara, tigger22, Tink and Co., Tinkerbelz, WDWJAMBA, wdwlovers, Wendyismyname, whoSEZ, WildforWD, and WvuGrrrl. You made the magic.
We want to personally thank Sara Varney, who coordinated our community for many years (among so many other things she did for us), and Cheryl Pendry, our Message Board Manager who helped train our Guides, and Ginger Jabour, who helped us with the PassPorter-specific forums and Live! Guides. Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm. You made it all happen.
There are other changes as well.
Why? Well, the world has changed. And change with it, we must. The lyrics to "We Go On" for IllumiNations say it best:
We go on to the joy and through the tears
We go on to discover new frontiers
Moving on with the current of the years.
We go on
Moving forward now as one
Moving on with a spirit born to run
Ever on with each rising sun.
To a new day, we go on.
It's time to move on and move forward.
PassPorter is a small business, and for many years it supported our family. But the world changed, print books took a backseat to the Internet, and for a long time now it has been unable to make ends meet. We've had to find new ways to support our family, which means new careers and less and less time available to devote to our first baby, PassPorter.
But eventually, we must move on and move forward. It is the right thing to do.
So we are retiring this newsletter, as we simply cannot keep up with it. Many thanks to Mouse Fan Travel who supported it all these years, to All Ears and MousePlanet who helped us with news, to our many article contributors, and -- most importantly -- to Sara Varney who edited our newsletter so wonderfully for years and years.
And we are no longer charging for the Live Guides. If you have a subscription, it's yours to keep for the lifetime of the Live Guides at no additional cost. The Live Guides will stay online, barring server issues and technical problems, for all of 2019.
That said, PassPorter is not going away. Most of the resources will remain online for as long as we can support them, and after that we will find ways to make whatever we can available. PassPorter means a great deal to us, and to many of you, and we will do our best to keep it alive in whatever way we can. Our server costs are high, and they'll need to come out of our pockets, so in the future you can expect some changes so we can bring those costs down.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support over the years. Without you, there's no way us little guys could have made something like this happen and given the "big guys" a run for their money. PassPorter was consistently the #3 guidebook after the Unofficial and Official guides, which was really unheard of for such a small company to do. We ROCKED it thanks to you and your support and love!
If you miss us, you can still find some of us online. Sara started a new blog at DisneyParkPrincess.com -- I strongly urge you to visit and get on her mailing list. She IS the Disney park princess and knows Disney backward and forward. And I am blogging as well at JenniferMaker.com, which is a little craft blog I started a couple of years ago to make ends meet. You can see and hear me in my craft show at https://www.youtube.com/c/jennifermaker . Many PassPorter readers and fans are on Facebook, in groups they formed like the PassPorter Trip Reports and PassPorter Crafting Challenge (if you join, just let them know you read about it in the newsletter). And some of our most devoted community members started a forum of their own at Pixie Dust Lane and all are invited over.
So we encourage you to stay in touch with us and your fellow community members wherever works best for you!

We had gathered in a corner to discuss our options and accidentally blocked in an unsuspecting husband. His wife spotted him and yelled out, “GEORGE! What are you doing over there with all those women?” He sheepishly made his way out our way before we recruited him for a smooch.
I completely forgot about George and his wife!!!
Your description of the Italy encounter was HILARIOUS!!! What a great time!!
Wow, now that is a club that I would be proud to be a member of. I would love to see pictures of that adventure. Looking forward to seeing how you made it out of Epcot. From the sounds of it I don't think our Norway CM's helped you out. Maybe an Italian CM took up that challenge. Just Kidding.

And just for your information... men of Italian descent (like myself) DO have boundaries... honest...
You definitely earned your Lush Club membership! Hurry back with more!
I'd say you remembered things quite well for the ... err... state you were in!

I have absolutely no memory of how I was designated the team-kisser – Sharon could have gracefully bowed out and requested that I take on that duty. Or, it could have been that I shoved Sharon out of the way, and much like the beer conflict, raised both hands in the hair and screamed, “PICK ME! OH, PICK ME!” Maybe it was that my reputation precedes me and it has been decided beforehand that I would excel as team kisser and there was no discussion at all. Either way, all I know is that by the time we were standing in line to purchase a Canadian beer, I realized that I was both The Beer Girl and The Kissing Girl. My mama would be so proud.
We can tell everyone that it was decided with a game of rock-paper-scissors. But I don't know if that would make you the winner or the loser?

It should be made clear that we weren’t laughing at his lost wallet – that truly stinks – but at Karen’s attempt to be sweet with Disney-fied sympathy, but totally coming off as maniacal. Who let her in the Grand Floridian again?
That was WillCAD. I never heard if he got his wallet back. Also, I missed the "pixie dust" comment.

The look on his face was priceless, and we all simply roared with laughter when his peepers got as big as saucers and he stumbled back a little.
That was hi-freakin'-larious!

As I remember it, George wasn't trying hard to get untrapped.

This new guy was less cute, but slightly more friendly – and after hearing Eileen’s story of the chubby Alice, I almost retracted that statement, but decided not to, as he being rude and uncooperative cancels out any biting of tongue on my part. Anyway, he wasn’t much help as he didn’t speak Danish, which was what the card was written in. I don’t remember if we handed him the English card or if Havard finally came over to help him, but they stood there for a minute talking to each other in a language I didn’t understand. Obviously, they were not as excited at the prospect of kissing any one of us as my Italian CM was. Oh, how I miss those undiscerning Italians.
The Norwegians were total partypoopers.

It was so much fun, Scarlett, and I'm so glad you were able to share it with us!

If and when we ran out of money, we could still check a country off our list if we bargained with a CM for something NOT on the menu – a kiss on the cheek, and as Karen stated in her “if you choose to accept” letter, which cheek was up to us.
Well explained... but I still want to know who has the paper and cards -- I had intended to take pictures of at least the Japanese one so you all could see it. Guess I got distracted by my friend Marg A. Rita.
I get the giggles every time I think of just *who* translated those cards for Karen. Since she had people from the Hoover Institution help her, my guess is that there were a few department chairs, Nobel laureates and former Secretaries of State involved in prepping for our drunken revels. Heeee!

It was an inspired adventure, n'est ce pas?! Kudos to Karen!

OMGosh... I forgot about that adventure.
I needed to do laundry again (yes, despite having two pieces of luggage and doing laundry midway through the two portions of my trip, I realized I wouldn't have enough clothes for my departure day. And, even though I was traveling in coach among the unwashed masses, I didn't want to be "unwashed" myself.... Therefore, a quick round of laundry was necessary. I stuffed a load of clothes into a piece of my rolling luggage and zipped it up -- not realizing at first that one whole side of one of my bras was trying to make a break for it out of the zipper of my Mickey suitcase. Sharon and I saw it at the same moment and I asked her if she dared me to keep it that way and traipse all the way through the WL lobby to see the reactions I got. Well, the reaction I got from Sharon was thrill enough as I think I may have gotten her back for making me pee my pants at Disneyland....
Anyway, Karen and Sharon decided to abandon me to the last of my dry cycle so they could get to the World Showcase before anyone else showed up. When I was done, I stuffed my clean clothes -- including any wayward bras -- back into the luggage and wheeled it up to the room. I got out to the buses only about 12 minutes behind Sharon and Karen, but ended up waiting forEVER for a bus to come. Finally -- FINALLY -- one came and it was (to quote Melissa quoting Dr. Evil) "frickin' freezing, Mr. Bigglesworth!" No, seriously, it was so cold that I (a self-confessed polar bear) was uncomfortable, rubbing my arms and stamping my feet to keep warm. Don't believe me? Well, here are the goosebumps that popped out all over my arm!!
This has happened so rarely in my life that I actually took a picture!!

.... snarkless comments on my wonderfullness! And she really was jealous of the Bobsy twins with their heads o' curls... just *look* at this face of hers!

Yick... Stinky beer (although... surprisingly, by the American pavilion, the beer tasted pretty good to me. )
But the hard cider tasted good right from the start!!

I’m remembering a large crowd inside the Tangerine Cafe, and Eileen having a fine time joking with another guest about not getting anything with nuts. I feel like I’m giving y’all the punch lines and letting you figure out the rest of the joke, but that’s all I remember!
Yeah... this one lost something in the beer-to-English translation Scarlett's been attempting....
Let me preface this by saying I'm known for being an eavesdropper, right. Well, I was the one in line to get the baklava and I was stuck behind this obnoxious, drunk jerk (and, no, it wasn't Sharon!) This guy was trying to chat up the poor Moroccan CM who was trying so hard to be polite and yet to reject him wholeheartedly and just do her blessed job... which was to help the growing line of people waiting for this schmuck to give up and move on already -- me especially! After a good three of four uncomfortable moments of this, the Canadian beer, English hard cider and an extra jolt of dark French chocolate reared up within me and I tapped this guy on the shoulder.
Eileen: (tap, tap, tap.) Excuse me...
Drunk Guy: yeah... wazzit?
Eileen: I'm not sure if you're aware of this or not, but your inappropriate flirting is causing the line to back waaaaaay up.
DG: Uh... inna... inna.... wazzit?
Eileen: Inappropriate flirting... It's not working and you're just making the rest of us wait for you to go down in flames and slink off.
DG: Well, schweety... how's 'bout I try a line on you to see if it would work?
Eileen: (waving my hand in front of my face to waft away the fumes he was spewing.) Look, I'm just here to get some baklava...
DG: What if I said you were the most beautiful girl I ever saw?
Eileen: I'd say you were drunk.
DG: Well, what if I said you'd "do."
Eileen: That would result in my knee making contact with your testicles.
I'm not proud of it, but I did revel in the huge laugh I got from the couple behind me. Drunk Guy slunk off like the drek he was and I finally got the shining little piece of honeyed goodness for us all to share.
But it gives me the giggles to know that all Scarlett remembers is that I ordered baklava "without nuts."

Ah, yes. The Italian margarita that Sharon promptly appropriated and then refused to share. Oh, she'd *pretend* she was willing to share -- she'd even extend it out to me with a "Do you want to try this?" but... when I'd go to reach for it, she'd pull it back in, turn her back and start slurping away. It only took me three passes of this little charade before I caught on.

Hey, I paid my blackmail money (for the extra maragarita in Mexico) so no one would mention that incident.... There's no photographic evidence (right Dawn!!), so no one'll believe you anyhow, Scarlett.)

"Yeah, MOM. How can I possibly remember this whole country if I don't have a troll doll gathering dust in my bedroom?" (Sounds so *familiar* to me, the mom of a "merchandising" son.)

I'm going to pretend for one moment that I never had that convo with Marylou and I have no conscience about saying mean things about CMs in TRs.... Havard was a jerk. Plain and simple. He was so taken with his own genetic expression that he couldn't be bothered with other human beings. The sweethearted guy who *did* step in may have lacked a bit of Havard's good looks, but he was charming and polite and had a good sense of fun.

Karen, a thousand apologies for not getting you into the picture and a billion-brazillian thanks for setting up this grand adventure in the first place. It was seriously one of the most fun, most outrageous things I've ever done in my life. A total hoot and such joy!
You ladies are all the best (but Karen's the bestest for giving us the cash to do it. )
Eileen
Ahhhhh... that was what I've been waiting for after all these Mousefest TRs...... snarkless comments on my wonderfullness!
And after those snarkless compliments, you repay me with THIS? I mean, what am I doing? What kind of expression is that??
Actually, look at ALL the pictures of me - I'm doing something weird with my mouth in every single one of them! Must have been all the al-kee-hol. And I suppose I do deserve it, as I brought up the egg roll incident. In my defense, I was careful not to mention any names, but Eileen is much like myself and wouldn't let a laugh go unclaimed.
I'm STILL wiping tears away at this:

Oh, it hurts. The laughter hurts. That has to be the absolute best outcome from a game of Drunk Telephone ever. This incident happens. Eileen tells me about it once I arrive on the scene. I make a booze-soaked mental note of it. Later when updating my notes, I ponder my hazy memory for a moment and then scrawl, "Baklava. Eileen. Drunk Guy. Nuts." Don't worry folks, I'm taking my self to church RIGHT NOW. And giving up beer for Lent.
Even though we look like drunk goons, I love this picture. We need to Photoshop Karen in there, plain 'n simple.

I remember someone suggesting he check with Guest Services about it, and as we walked off, Karen screamed over her shoulder, “PIXIE DUST!”
