Ditto for the Missus and me. I had never heard anyone called a "jack wagon" and had to look it up.
Urban Dictionary: jack wagon

That was good! I didn't know what that was either. I also had to look up TBN member "brin" and his signature "Who is John Galt ? ?"
Hey, if that was obvious to everyone else....then sorry, call me clueless!
Who is John Galt? - "I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine." -- John Galt

Thanks for the Jack Wagon definition. I had never heard of it until the commercial either. :laughing:
"Who is John Galt" is showing up all over the place. I see it on non TBN websites. And I saw it on a huge sign next to I95 in GA or SC.
The USCG thread in a thread made me remember a bus driver....
On our last trip to Disney, our oldest and I went back to the resort from Magic Kingdom. Our resort and MK are as far apart as you can get on Disney property so the bus trip is 20-30 minutes depending on traffic. The bus trip was too quick this time.
We got on the bus and the only other person on board was the young bus driver. Just the three of us. I knew he was a good guy because his name was Dan. :laughing:
The bus drivers have one of the toughest jobs at WDW. The have to deal with some real Jack Wagons.
First use of the phrase for me! :laughing::laughing::laughing: Some of the drivers are very friendly and outgoing while others are not. I generally blame the Jack Wagons for the quieter bus drivers.
There was a video out a few months back where a bus driver was assaulted by a "guest" who was told there was no more room on the bus and the guest had to wait for the next bus. The "guest" was carrying a baby. His first assault on the bus driver was to THROW the baby at the driver! Needless to stay he was eventually arrested.
The bus driver and I start talking and he asked where we were from so I say NC. He said he used to live in Elizabeth City. So I asked if he was in the CG. :laughing: Which he was. :thumbsup: We had a very nice conversation on the too short bus ride. He liked to hunt and fish. What was very surprising was he was a native Floridian and he was able to do some of the things I did growing up. He lived away from Orlando to keep away from the city and the crowds. :thumbsup:
When we got to the resort I just wanted to stay on the bus to keep talking with Dan. He thanked me for a good conversation and for the shortest bus trip ever.
Bus Driving Dan would like TBN which I mentioned to him.
Later,
Dan

This all reminds me of an old tired carpenter joke that, nonetheless, still makes me laugh. When I was working as a carpenter's helper while in high school, we were driving 4" spikes with small sledgehammer. The carpenter asked if I always hit where I looked. When I said yes, he said, "Well, don't look at my finger!" I know it is stupid, but it still brings a smile to my face.:laughing:
