    Knocked out the driving test today, I was a little rusty on my gears at first, but they smoothed out towards the end of the test. Backing I need to definitely get some practice in when I have the opportunity, but I didn't destroy anything lol.

    Food here at the grand was a little more bland than the last time I was here, but still it is free and it does fill you up, so hey I can't complain much.

    We used an 07 in good shape. Be warned though take the driving test slow and careful like you're doing the dmv test. they don't want aggressive driving they want safe. 3 people were sent home today for failing the driving test.

    Whew! I really don't like the super, nothing wrong with it its just feels wrong to me. Like I didn't shift enough, know what I mean?

    In unrelated news, FFE has a pet policy. $500 deposit required.

    Well the excitement is beginning to build. Two more days before I get the H E double hockey sticks outta this tourist trap and back to work. I actually made a few bones last night when my bro asked me to run one of this karaoke shows at a local bar. YAY!!! I got some lunch money for next week!!!:yes2557:

    My Wednesday is going to be filled with airports. I leave Panama City, FL (KECP) at 0730 on a Delta MD-88 arriving Atlanta (KATL) at 0943. Leave KATL at 1112 on another MD-88 to Houston (KIAH) that arrives at 1235. Then I switch airlines to Continental (United) and take a 735 to KDFW arriving at 1543. 8hrs 13min on planes and in airports. :biggrin_25514:

    WAY better than the Greydog alternative at 22hs 42mins and 9 transfers!!!!:biggrin_2551:

    So anyone here gonna be there Thursday just look for the casual Johnny Cash looking fat guy with the Tennessee cap!:biggrin_25525:

    BJnobear. Best of luck to you. I know what you mean about living in a tourist town. I dread when the Snowbirds will return to Gulf Shores. The most dangerous place in the world is our Walmart parking lot when the Snowbird come to town. Have fun and be safe.
