I have no idea

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

A couple of times during our trip we have had a quick meal at a fast food restaurant.  Today we had one of those times.  During the order process, my wife asks the girl behind the counter about a sandwich.  The question was pretty simple.  “What is on it?”

The answer was just a simple.  “I have no idea.”

I know that most teenagers have at least one hamburger-joint-job during high school or college, and I realize that fast food is not a career option for most people.  But is it too much to ask that we all take a little more pride in our work?

Lebanon, Missouri

Here at Disney I have been amazed by the number of people from outside the United States.  We rode on the tram with people from Brazil.  At lunch we sat with a family from Venezuela.  At the Little Mermaid we sat beside some college students from Indonesia. 

I could go on and on.

I like to talk to people while standing in line.  I have met some interesting people over the years.  Today we were in the queue for the Safari ride when my brother’s wife notices someone in the next row wearing a t-shirt from Lebanon, Missouri.  That is where my sister-in-law teaches.  She asks the Asian if he lives in Lebanon.  He doesn’t speak English.  A translator asks him the question.  He says he got the shirt in China, his home country.  He didn’t know where Missouri was, but he liked the shirt. 

That was weird.

Tonight at dinner my wife had this perfect image of Ohio fall onto her fork.  It is from the graham cracker crust of a wonderful butterscotch pie. 

Does it have a prophetic meaning?  Is it an omen?  Could we get cash from it on eBay?

We have left messages with the Pope, Jim Tressel and the Golden Palace .
