  1. Subject: I turned over my golf cart

     

     

     

     

     

     

    While golfing, I accidentally overturned my golf cart.

     

    A very attractive golfer, who lived in a villa on the golf course, heard the

    noise and called out, "Are you okay?"

     

    "I'm okay thanks," I replied as I pulled myself out of the twisted cart.

     

    She said, "Come up to my villa, rest a while, and I'll help you get the cart

    up later." I noticed her silky bathrobe was partially open, revealing what

    appeared to be a very nice figure.

     

    "That's mighty nice of you," I answered, "but I don't think my wife would

    like it."

     

    "Oh, come on now " she insisted.

     

    She was so pretty, and very, very persuasive.

     

    I was weak. "Well okay," I finally agreed.

     

    After a couple of Scotch and waters, I thanked her and said, "I feel a lot

    better now. But I know my wife is going to be really upset. So I'd better go

    now."

     

    "Don't be silly!" she said with a smile, letting her robe fall slightly more

    open. "Stay for a while. She won't know anything. By the way, where is she?"

     

    I replied, "Still under the cart, I guess".

    OK, I'll bite. Was it the warm beer served by CE or the indifferent attitude of the stewardesses? I had 4 months from booking to the actual flight to read every negative review of CE (the positive reviews stated that you get what you pay for). I'll admit that I don't like flying through Chinese airspace and didn't appreciate the Chinese person behind me on the flight from Chiangmai to Hunan clearing his throat every 3 minutes and then spitting in a bag. From what I understand, CE customer service is crap, whether you have to call them or deal with them at the airport. Fortunately, there were no problems on my flight, so I had no dealing with them. Besides, the more money that I saved went into repairs at my Chiangmai house, which is the reason that I've gone back 3 times in the last 4 years. The house is now rented, so it's no longer a money pit for me.

     

    A combination of the bad service and the connection. My MIL lives, and travels, with us. At the airports we use a wheelchair since her walking is limited. At Guanzhou (sp) an attendant Got her, wheeled her up to the second floor and left her. We waited until it was getting close to flight time, nothing. Found an area where CE people were working but no english and all ignored us. Eventually I found someone who got us to the flight barely on time. The airport is crap too!!

  3. We like Eva a lot. If close to good price we always take it, and use their premium economy, I am not small so the extra space/leg room is welcome. We have usually found China Air a good price and no complaints, their premium economy also good.

     

    China Eastern we tried once due to low price, never again for many reasons!!

  4. I looked out of my window in horror yesterday as a crowd gathered around a crashed motorcyclist.

    I rushed outside yelling "Let me through, let me through"

    A man at the front said "Thank God for that, are you a Doctor"?

    I said "No, that's my Pizza"

  5. We'll demand the resignation of a government, if a group of mothers feel that one of their precious angels, was slighted or insulted in the playground.

     

    Same would happen in the states today. When I was a kid I climbed a tree at school, fell out, and dented my skull. My parents, rightfully IMHO, apologized to the school for the inconvenience of ambulances and they dented me some more when I got home.

  6. Flew them a few years back from Los Angeles to BKK through Guangzhou.

     

    Never again! Seats uncomfortable, service nil. Guangzhou was a nightmare. My mother in law, who lives and travels with us, was wheeled into a isolated corner and left there for a couple hours (insert MIL joke here). As our connecting flight time approached we tried to make contact but was ignored. Finally I pushed the barriers aside and wheeled her to our connecting gate.

     

    But, of course, others mileage may vary!!
